The sentiment of “You need to go to college to have a successful career” is still pretty prevalent and the The Good The Bad And The Ugly Don’t mess with old people we didn’t get this being stupid shirt it is in the first place but trades just aren’t pushed by many people even though there is a massive need for workers in the trades as it is heavily skewed towards older people who are going to retire out of the system over the next decade or so. it’s not only that. the mentality of trades is you get paid well, but you’ll pay with your body when you retire in late 40s and early 50s and can no longer work. so people who don’t want labor jobs don’t want trades. I was interested in trades until I saw tons of comments from one thread talking about how people’s fathers/grandfathers are practically disabled by their 50s. At the very least bad knees. I’ve survived kitchen work for so long but trade jobs just sounds worse on the body. I also witnessed many folks that couldn’t hack kitchen work for very long and simply got out of that industry early in their careers. It’s maybe not as stressing physically but it does take some consistent mental/emotional fortitude. This^. Son is going to school for trades and trying to get an apprenticeship. He’s being turned down because he’s not licensed…which in order to get licensed he needs to get an apprenticeship. Catch-22

Exact issue I’m having myself it’s complete BS. Everyone is crying about needing trades but no one new can get in to learn Cuz less money if more folks get into the The Good The Bad And The Ugly Don’t mess with old people we didn’t get this being stupid shirt it is in the first place but trades. Why less money? More competition. Gotta make it hard af to get in, look at longshore jobs as an example or any port job. This is part of the issue, I wouldn’t say its the main issue, because if your’re experienced in the trades you will get work, so that’s still more competition. Mostly its because companies dont want to waste time training someone who will bail and leave them when they are experienced. They prefer to have some skilled folks so they can finish projects quickly and professionally. Geography matters on this. If you want to get into a trade union on the coasts, then yes, there is plenty of bullshit standing in your way. If you just want to break into trade work in general, then its mostly a matter of timing and one solid reference that says you can handle physical work. Plumbing and electrical are tough to get an apprenticeship without work history. But concrete, drywall, and residential carpentry are pretty easy to break into this time of year. You just need to put on steel-toes and show up at the office at 7:30 in the morning on a Monday boomer-style. Tell them you are happy to work in the heat, cold, rain, or sunshine and you are willing to work 10 or 12 hour days as a standard. The money will be shit and so will the work, but if you can stick it out for a year you have a resume entry that will get you an interview for a trade you would actually want to work full time. Its not fair, but its a system you can navigate if you know the right answers to their questions.
