And there you go I don't understand what he means but oh well my life as a truck driver Goes onMost people decent at rudimentary math and understand algebra usually have solid reasoning ability and usually also mechanically inclined. Hard to put numbers into a computer if you don't understand the problem.
Oh by the way you mentioned mechalcal inclined I know plenty of people can type a bunch of B.S. on a computer but can't change the oil on there car lol and were stupid skiny jenes and have there hair in a bun lol
Sorry, that position is "filled".... plus your boobs are too small.
I was a journeyman IBEW industrial instrument tech for 9 years right out of the Navy where I was an electronics tech. Due to my military training and experience I was able to do 12 months of OJT instead of a 3 year apprenticeship. I then got a control technician apprenticeship. You had to be either a journeyman instrument tech or a journeyman power plant electrician to get the control tech apprenticeship. For the control tech journeyman card it required completing the requirements for whichever of the two journeyman cards you didn't already have, plus a bit more electronics. After 12 years as a journeyman control tech at a basic rate of $36/hr (about $100K with overtime), I switched to metering technician, which was yet another journeyman card (the 4th one). So another 5 years down the road, and a systems admin job in the metering field comes open and I'm behind a desk looking at computer screens all day for the next 11 years at well over $100K without any overtime.I used to be a diesel mech, but I quickly saw that everybody and their dogs thought they too were a mech because they could pickup a wrench or screwdriver. Also, I knew, sooner or later, I would get old and not be able to lay on my back under some greasy dirty piece of equipment and have oil and dirt and grease fall on me anymore.
So I went into electronics because I found it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, I do have brains and a lot more people think they can't understand electronics.
From there I went where the money was - software. So now I sit in an office looking at a computer screen 8 hours a day. It does take some aptitude and attitude and persistence, but I am constantly learning new things and I taught myself. I have 25 years of experience at it and make a six figure salary. The downside is that not every city has software jobs - but if you are good enough you can work remote/from home.
It is all about supply and demand. The more demand and the less supply, the easier it is to get a job and make more money. Does everybody think they can do simple plumbing? Many people do. I think that a lot of the plumbing jobs are in construction, which is seasonal and cyclical. Others are in maintenance of buildings. Personally I don't like fixing someone's leaky toilet or sink - BTDT - and no, I don't think it takes a lot of brains once you know what to do. YMMV.
Electrician is nice. I am one. I've done just about all types of electrical work. Five year of residential to start, then a bunch of commercial tenant improvement work, and finally lots of industrial work. I specialize in industrial control work, including fire alarm and telecom work, but I can do everything any general journeyman might be asked to do.Electrician would be nice too but I never hear anything about it haha
