Crazy how Barbers and other Blue Collar jobs are making more than the 6 cert IT Gang nowadays.

I don’t think they making a killing like that

A lot of the blue collar people i know even white are just not buying unnecessary shyt, they wives also make money and even more than them but they prioritize better than a lot of people who make more

Most of my fellow sparkies(electricians) are traveling right now to work and they all bringing home anywhere from $3-$5k a week after taxes because these jobs are paying out the ass. Skilled tradesman(Electricians, Plumbers, Welders, sprinkler pipe fitters, elevator technicians, etc.) are making bank. Hell I'm not traveling and I'm taking home a few dollars short of $2k a week and this is after stepping down from my foreman spot and just being a regular ass employee(in the DFW that is great). I've paid so much in taxes this year(I have them withhold an additional $40/wk on my withholding so I don't owe at the end of the year) I'm about to go now withholding for the entire month of December so that will be an additional $450/wk I'm coming home with also.
