they feel like they do not have a choice or other options are worse. seems to be a theme on this forum when office work is discussed.

After MFH taxes and MFH rent I make as much as an ARE country electrician than I did as a $120k corporate drone in MFH

I seriously enjoy being an electrician not flame.

The prestige I don't know. I was a Wall Street codepig, so I didn't exactly get a lot of prestige in MFH. I also freelance on the side so I guess that helps a little bit. I'm technically a working software developer.

But yes, I vastly enjoy being an electrician to corporate codepig and it's not even close.

What about being an electrician is better than being a corporate drone? Describe the details of what makes your job more enjoyable.

was bending conduit Friday, it's really an art

it's like sculpting except more useful

get to work with chill bros that are all get laid, unlike rich programmer incels

i like to travel to different job sites, being outdoors

AND THE NUMBER ONE THING THE IS THERE IS ALWAYS A CLEAR GOAL. I mean people don't just get electrical work done for a reason other than needing to bring electricity from one place to another

no microsoft office fire drills

worst case scenario people get really anal about worksmanship, but there's no sense of running wire, digging it up, and then running a different kind of wire so your boss would have something to brag to his boss about. THERE IS ALWAYS A CLEAR, WELL UNDERSTOOD GOAL.

also lot's of exercise, and you don't have to check e-mail all the time. since it's a lot of exercise, as with other forms of manual labor you don't have to work 12 hours a day and if you do, you're in time and a half over 8 and if you can somehow stay standing after 80 hours in a week you are in double time

on a holiday you can get into triple time, for an industrial electrician this can be $120/hr

There are always better options unless you have like 3 kids and a SAHM and no savings

For one, you could just move somewhere with low COL, which opens up more types of jobs to you (e.g., teaching, etc.)

Mountain States and Southwest

Those are good options, although AZ is kind of trashy, also Colorado, Idaho

reminded of the following video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OAbp4nt2XQ

Dude realizes just six weeks into corporate life that he just can't make the cut. Probably had the right idea with just bailing on that lifestyle altogether.
