Why is this job the most common job for young men these days?

I know at least 8 losers from HS who are now doing this.

and I'm not talking about trades in general, I'm talking specifically about this trade, linemen.

Nobody is doing HVAC/electrician/construction etc.

Those "losers" didnt go in crippling debt for a useless degree

bet they make more money than you

Its quick, training is fast, think its 2 months and you get decent money.

I call them losers because they did nothing after HS and only recently started this journey like in their mid 20s, don't think a single one of the 8 went to this right after HS, many went to college and failed out or worked minimum wage until 22-23. Just a pattern I've noticed.

and people value them.

You might not like it, but trades are more important than "degree" people.

I make 200k in tech remote. If they make more, good for them. I barely work and don't have to be on call, risk my life on some stupid pole.

it's a high risk - well paid job. can't see a woman doing it, or a low T man

Building stuff is fun. I point out rhe places I've worked at. When we're at the grocery store I remind my wife I helped at Maple Leaf for their new plant. You don't like working with your hands? Building stuff people need? Never felt the gentle sway of an elevated workmplatform?

get paid well and not have to work with women at all? Gee I wonder why...

>anyone who doesnt subscribe to my way of thinking / doing is a LOSER

god youre so cringe

Who cares? You probably couldn't handle the banter anyways so go back to your desk.

yeah but I'm mainly curious why everyone flocks to this trade in particular, I don't see people getting involved in the others (also for some reason anyone involved in linemen trade is more likely to be obnoxious about it on social media)

It’s a good job that arguably is more important than most. It pays well, may be hard on the hips and knees. But my fiancé’s dad was one and retired happy. To be honest it’s a pretty good job if you aren’t a bitch
>no matter what when you get old shit will hurt
I’d rather work with my hands outdoors and restore power for my community than do retail, or HR corporate jobs. Let’s be real anons IT guys have it really easy

TOP KEK checked
OP IS A FAG

poor poor wagie tradie cope lol

your choice

I always find it funny that so many people claim to make six-figures doing "tech", on here. Meanwhile, the average pay for a code monkey is right around $50-56k and are easily replaceable with pajeets.

But don't worry, goyim. American tech is totally okay and every employee is making hundreds of thousands of dollars and floating around on their Elon Musk anti-gravity hoverboards on their way back to their sprawling mansions.

I'm calling them losers because they did fuckall after HS lol. I'm referring to the people I know personally in my social circle.

Not because their linemen

holy shit canadian/UK reading comprehension

They provide the electricity you are using to embarrass yourself right now. My uncle worked for the power company his whole life and recently retired…to a horse ranch he bought in North Carolina with all the money he made. Show us pics of your studio apartment

I dont work at all, the money from your taxes subsists me, get fucked wage bitch and get back to work.

My gf made me quit after she got pregnant in 2018 since I might get zapped or fall. I made 110-130k from 2011-2018. Started apprenticeship and school at 26. Had 400k liquid(cds/bonds) in the bank by 35 when I quit. Spent 1/3 of my life 28-35 years old in a camper near job sites hundreds of miles from home to save per diem money.

The thing about being a lineman, is that if you really are a lineman, climbing poles/structures, messing with hundreds of thousands of Watts, you’re not a loser. You’re making big money, big benefits, and you have a good IQ. Low IQ can’t do it, they’ll get fried. Literally fried. OP is fake and gay, receiving pennies for posts shitting on a job that actually creates and sustains a middle class lifestyle for families with a stay at home mother.

How do I get into professional tree-climbing?

reddit seems to be more your speed retard, perhaps its time you went back

>keeping power for your family that live in a community
Or
>stay anti social in a basement while you say “fuck the Jewish system” yet I do not believe you have ever hunted, or have a garden.
The amount of Jewish shit you consume is probably on level with most people.

No real SWE job is paying 50-56k a year. Delusional fucking cope

Not even the lowest of the low tech companies pay that in the US to a US citizen.

Tendies and fries are all I need

Tech remote huh Guess some people can come by and cut down your electric power lines and who will you be calling to come fix them so you can "work"? Because you sure wont be getting your faggot ass up there to do anything. The moment they're gone you are fucked.

>im just a lineman for the countyyyy

Why can't Mutts just bury their power lines like a developed nation?

it's a very dangerous labor intensive job. kinda like roofing. both are young man work

I do leak detection at gas plants in Texas….what do I do to make 200k? I’d love to make that much remote

Several reasons
1) they work 14 hours on a slow day. It’s their entire life. Of course they’re gonna put it in social media. You fucking retard
2) it’s somewhat unique. Not everyone climbs poles and gets flown around under helicopters. It’s “worth” a post more than a cubical or computer bitch’s life is. (I.e. that’s why you’re not posting your shit. Because you’re lame and fucking boring)
3) because they’re making WAAAAY more money than you. First year apprentices can make 250k easily. The journeyman/masters work maybe half a year for a union, make their money for the year, and take 6-8months off before they jump on the books again. They’re bragging about how they didn’t go to college for 8 years, and how people (like you) called them losers, and now they’re making more than you, and both your parents combined.
Get wrecked faggot.

I’m a loser who went into debt for an engineering degree. All my high school buddies who went into skilled trades made fun of me and said I would drop out and end up working for Starbucks or some shit. I didn’t listen to them and I graduated with a civil engineering degree. I started out at 60k$/year and I had to approve timesheets for tradesmen younger than me making 160k$/yr. Ten years into my career though and I’m making 220,000$ with a 10$ bonus every year. I also have 4 rental properties earning me another 120,000$ each year. I work 40 hours a week and I spend most of my time watching YouTube videos, I do maybe 8 hours of actual productive work each week. You don’t get this kind of job by going into skilled trades. Skilled trades will give you a good paycheque until your knees and back are fucked, then you might as well kill yourself cause nobody’s gonna hire you.

We do, but buried power lines have as many problems and hanging ones and are much more difficult and dangerous to work on if there is a problem. How’s your electricity bill taste Lars? Salty?

liar, liar, pants on fire!

No one cares

Trades are entirely designed by the elites to keep retarded but dangerous individuals busy and to make them feel like their important or relevant somehow

If you wanted to destroy zog the most effective way to do so would be to sabotage power lines. Or are you going to vote away your problems? lol

They are making good money, working outside, and keeping the fucking lights on.
Bless those those guys.

I make 160k a year and do nothing. It's pretty comfy. You should learn to code.

>yet I do not believe you have ever hunted
correct, might change that one day
>have a garden
false i have basil plants, avocadoes, coconuts, and mangoes

Damn. You should’ve signed pg&e’s books in California. I know apprentices making 2x that.

Anyone who ever says anything mean about muh tradies will get this. Doesn't matter if you make more than a tradie, doesnt matter if they break their back while you relax doesn't matter if their job is full of niggers and spics, or that they work a 12 hour shift, they're important.

You are a bigger loser for complaining about them on 4 chan.

>losers
>cuts off your electricity
>can't work on his computer anymore
nothing personal kid

I do this for a living..

I do it cuz I haven't made under 170k a year since turning 21. Full pension and benefits to retire at 55. I can make much more, lot of guys in the trucks beside me making 250k or more as a worker, but I don't wanna work that much anymore.

I sit in a truck 90% of the day now, but you bust ass fucking hard in the early years.

I make 300k selling postage stamps and my dad works for Nintendo

Going to school for saturation diving, the company I signed a contract is paying for all my training (I was already a dive master) once I finish this schooling in which I have a 2.5k allowance I will start doing 4-8 month cycles where I will earn 300k in my first year. Honestly it’s not that hard of work if your competent at diving and welding. There is so many niche trades where you can do something your passionate about and be happy. Yeah linesman aren’t paid as much as what I’ll be doing but it’s still big bucks and retiring early (probably because it is a young man’s job so they have danger pay and overtime for being called in for outages).
Me personally I like work that challenges me as I feel more fulfilled. I almost took a job with Garuda security that paid well plus company car but standing around in rich corporate buildings sounded trash. You need a rural life to raise kids

you dont need any degree for a high paying WFH software dev job

Ya did all that and here I am no degree sitting at home on a Monday because I simply do not have to work for anyone but myself and only when I want. And nothing short of the apocalypse will hinder my finances.
Seems like you wasted your time.

Perhaps they realized at 16 what a farce it all was and gave up on the pre-planned path that faggots and normies insist they walk

truth hurts huh

>I know at least 8 losers from HS who are now doing this.
Well, who the fuck else is gonna keep the electricity going? Your bitch ass?

Who would have the most knowledge of power lines and access to the tools that would be most effective when the shooting starts?

>Scrawny beta male.
Nice.

I am a lineman for the county
And I drive the main road
Searchin' in the sun for another overload

So you can fap to anime porn.

I have a 10.5” cock, no lie. How does that make you feel? Does the truth hurt?

>I’m in the top 1% of incomes guise
Lmao no you don’t, nobody makes that much remote because you’re not that important if you’re remote.
