Quick question breh how hard is the work?
I did the math on the shipping and the numbers were bad. Would have to do the screen printing myself or the margins would be terrible for my desired price point. Still got my template and logos ready for when I get a space. It's getting more more obvious that to make real money, gotta avoid the middleman and keep as much of the process in-house as possible.

I need serious advice brehs
I'm at a cross roads in life
Do I go to Uni/College and get a STEM degree (If I do I have to upgrade I was lazy as fukk in HS)
Or do I pursue an apprenticeship most likely Electrician or Millwright. I know Millwrights translate well into the engineering sector. I'm already doing some work related to this and it's both physically and mentally taxing.
I see some of these guys and realize I don't want to work like this for the rest of my life.
I work with Power Engineers, Electricians, Mechanics, Millwrights, Welders, Plumbers. So I ask for advice all the time, but the advice always varies: go to school, pursue trade, no go to school, etc...
But I make 22/hr, which I feel is good for a 19 yr old. I live at home too.
But at the same time I feel so stupid for not being in college like the rest of my peers, embarrassed even.
People always telling (not asking) me : Why ain't you in school breh?
I've always envisioned myself as that clean cut black man in a suit.
Not wearing a hard hat, safety glasses and turning wrenches.
I see the power engineers in the boiler room and they tell me they do fukk all but monitor the systems and occasionally adjust things, If something goes wrong they call on of us.
If I pursue an apprenticeship I have to go to school anyways. Won't be nearly as expensive as getting a degree, in total the 4 years will cost a couple thou really.
I feel conflicted, angry and other myriad of emotions.
I need help brehs
I seriously love my job
Im telling you, get the apprenticeship. Its free. At least it was for me and everyone in the union. Unless you count union dues.

My buddy is a piece of shyt and wreaks of superiority even though he got that position out of clout. My dad was a paramedic and put with society's worst for 36 years in Chicago and all I get is student loans. Fact of the matter is that a lot of trades are mostly politics and family connections get more priority over skill and education.

That's what I'm going to school for
Power Engineering fits me PERFECTLY
I say for you, get as AAS, Associate Applied Science degree in a trade related field that you wanna do. Honestly with an AAS and getting a license in your field means you can skip a 4 year apprenticeship all together. Win win situation if you ask me

Cool, that's what I'm in school for. So after school, what licenses/certifications do I need to get?
Telecommunications + Electrical/Computer Engineering should net you six figures immediately.
