Since when are these not professions that earn a middle class level income? ^^^
I will take farmers and miners over buisness executives or psychiatrists any day-I think it is more likely to improve the economy.
Are you seriously implying that those simpleton jobs are more worthwhile and important than, say something in the science or medical field?
What is a doctor going to do when his shitter gets clogged or when he has to install a new sump pump? Is that fucker going to build his $500 000 house by hand himself? I wouldn't say they are more important, but they definitely are necessary. They also pay well and don't require 4+ years of university. You can get paid while you learn, it is a good option for some people. My father makes more money then many people with a university education and that fucker didn't even make it through high school. You can't say that his job helps more people then a doctor or scientist, but would any of those cunts want to move in this godforsaken area of the world to help people if they had no pipelines bringing gas to heat their homes during the winter?
It's not about rising above the middle class but not have to be the one working in the heat or covered in grease, but only if that's what you want to do. The world needs mechanics, plumbers, carpenters, farmers, teachers, doctors, and engineers. I have a degree but I tend to hang out with more people that don't. Not so I can feel better about myself but because a college degree has a way of turning some people into pretentious assholes.
Yes I sure am, I have more use for my garbage man than a scientist or doctor, I am not saying those aren't important just not nearly as important as people act as if they are, Look at Cuba they have the most doctors and i'm not trying to move their.
I wanted to cut hair when I was younger, but when I told my mom she said no lol.
get used to it. it's worse than u imagine probably too. i live a very kushy life but i used to live in the real world and it was depressing.
its not that BAD, im buying my way through college, work, renting a house, paying bills and living fine
It may not be bad for you, but what happens if you lost your job (hypothetically speaking, couldn't find another). Would you still be renting a house, paying bills, and living fine? That's where Urca's at without a job. So it's hard to say it's not that bad, when you have a different situation.
yeah i guess it's not so bad. i just hate slaving away at a desk all day, wishing i was somewhere else. missing all the beautiful days - being outdoors in the fresh air. worrying about the next bill and not saving a penny, never getting ahead. i am done with college and i live in a really awesome historic home in the center of a city. i love it here. i wouldn't be happy if i were working all the time though. the life of get up, go to work, get home, eat, watch tv, sleep, repeat doesn't appeal to me at all.
