Quote from: JOE on October 11, 2024, 01:48:23 PMI've met people in the trades & their bodies often get wasted by age 60.

It's not an easy life.
Stop talking shit Joe. Physical exertion doesn't waste bodies...it builds them. What trades are you inferring to exactly?

Lol. If he's talking about bad backs, shoulders, hips, knees etc...it happens to the best of us after 50 years of age. I've worked/work on the tools and have done lab work in a few industries. Wear and tear is a fact of life.

Did pussy really take him for a ride? Poor bugger...no wonder he's so stint on the cash!

Quote from: Shen Li on October 11, 2024, 11:56:11 PMI have those 2 diminutive geriatric nincompoops, Seamunchkin and The Langley Ladyboy on ignore at VF. However, when I make an appearance there(it doesn't happen that often), those 2 are gnawing on my yellow ankles.

I see them after I logout replying to my posts. Pathetic or what.
No question that is pathetic.

I don't know anything about your former industry. But, I have clients that are unionized journeymen travelling from jobsite to jobsite earning over two hundred thousand dollars per year. I have another client that owns a small tool and die shop that netted six hundred thousand dollars last year.

I know apprenticeships are a very good alternative to post secondary education. The gap is growing too.

My son is in an indentured apprenticeship program at my husband's company..

He always liked tools, so I wasn't surprised he chose a trade.
too old to be a fashionista

Quote from: Shen Li on October 11, 2024, 11:51:46 PMLet's face it, liberal arts degrees are useless. They are subsidized the same as professional degree programs like business, medicine or engineering, but unlike those majors, they offer no value to society. Unless you consider blocking major urban thoroughfares to bring attention to the climate crisis by forcing cars to idle is worth it to taxpayers.
That is something I could support.

The democRATs want folks who became journeymen to pay off the student loans of dingbats who thought a degree in drama and theatre arts would get them standing on their own two feet.

Make liberal arts majors pay the entire cost of their hobby degrees. Apply the savings to lower the cost of business, engineering and medical majors.
