this is exactly the reason why i got into the trades after spending/wasting my time at college (although i don’t regret the path i took, it’s brought me here)

i knew i always enjoyed working with my hands and honestly i just needed a job, i wasn’t using my degree and thought learning a trade is a valuable and honorable skill. I never could accept the reality in which i would pay someone to do something that i could do myself (landscaping, automotive, repairs). I had 0 experience in carpentry/building but the idea was that “one day i’ll be able to build my own house”— it’s been 6 years and honestly if i had the land i could do it all myself, minus the electrical and all that (which i’d love to learn)

that being said, it was the best decision i ever made. i love this profession, there’s a never ending wealth of knowledge.
