Man as u get older, the goal is always to work smarter, not harder.
Exactly, I'm all about efficiency. I try to do less and make more.

My end goal is to be able to sit on my ass, do nothing and get paid.....

That my brehs and brehettes is living.....

Rich people have regular people all fukked up working long hard hours.....

In my early-mid twenties I was doing the 50+ hours a week thing at my gig for almost two years nonstop chasing a bag.
Someone quit, and rather than hire another person I said I'd make up the slack working OT since I had just had a kid.
Like overtime every day, and coming in on saturdays or sundays when I could drag myself out the crib.

Near the end I started cracking mentally, and then my hair started falling out in patches from the stress. Eventually I had to sit down w my boss and ask her to hire another person to help me. She was willing to keep paying me the overtime indefinitely, but it was KILLING me, seriously.

I honestly get angry at myself when I realize how I blew through so much $$ without putting a lot of it towards something more long term.

Got u, is it true that you cant just quit an apprenticeship or union ? I heard it's extremely difficult.

I want to finish my degree because I got 2 years left, but I don't know if it'll end up being useless, so I wanted a trade as well just in case.


Young like teens-early to mid twenties..u don't make that much as an apprentice...once u done with that then u start cakin...u got be an apprentice for a couple years before u go out on ur own..too old I would say is 30's just because ur responsibilities are different plus u got grown man bills...don't quote me on it tho cuz I'm sure some bruhs got in trades late and doing well for themselves.. far as doing both...u need to prioritize which one is more important...cuz u could apprentice during the day and take classes at night..that's a decision u would have to make...don't know ur circumstances...

It wasn't on purpose bruh, I thought I was doing the right thing by getting a job and going to school.

Just now I realize I need skills. You know about any I could learn online or something to help getting a better job?


[QUOTE="Balla, post: 28384225, member: 34654"]I have no skills and can't find a job to pay me $20.

:to:

If you got an idea on how I can do that please tell me.

This your problem breh and will continue to be until you change that.[/QUOTE]

Tbh bruh..u shouldn't really want to leave the union because they get u ur job back if u fukk up and try to get u more money on projects...far as leaving I wouldn't know...I'm not an electrician...u would be better off talking to a real life electrician tbh...just had a random convo wit dude... didn't really get into the nitty gritty of it...but I would imagine if u stop paying ur dues wouldn't be that hard to get out of it... Don't quote me on it tho..
