Man, I just paid 1200 to get my AC fixed. Negga was in and out in about 3 hrs. Imagine he does that 2-3 times a week. That’s bank.

Actually I wish I did a trade and owned my own biz instead smh

Shoulda hit me dog it was probably just a capacitor ($36 on amazon)
I've learned a lot from you cats over the years. I looked up the other day and realized it's been 10 years I been riding with my coli Fam. I'm thinking :jbhmm: how can I give back.

Before any of y'all call a big company, let me help u:jawalrus:
It's better to know WHAT TO SAY and WHAT NOT TO SAY because I know for a fact we listen to what u don't know before giving u a $$$ quote.
Hell I might even be able to tell u how to fix whatever it is YOURSELF!

Furnace not producing heat? Fukk wit me
Air conditioner making a crazy noise? Fukk wit me
Low water pressure? FUKK WIT ME

:blessed:Let's keep the money in our pockets famo

Breh, all the skilled trades are open. My uncle owns a electrical business and dude easily has the cushiest life outa everyone. Grown kids, big ass house, 6-7 employees. Dude is easily worth a mil or two and only goes in to check on shyt and pay people. When he was doing electrical for apartment buildings, he'd have like a two month rush of working 5 days a week and 7 ish hours. After that, he was taking private repair work charging out the ass (still cheaper than most) and was clearing 6 figures when my pops was still struggling at entry level shyt.

The skilled trades are fukking OPEN for the young bulls. You can go full union and make a good living or turn that into your own biz and just supervise shyt. shyt, I might just get a HVAC cert just to fukking have it.

Is it realistic to be an Electrician and only work 40 hour week? I mean obviously if you have your own business but what about if you working for a company? :francis: that’s one thing I keep hearing is that you work 50-80hour weeks.. I would like to have time with my family

It's sad that having a regular 9-5 job has somehow become something to be ashamed of in our community. That you're some kind of lame or sucker if you work a job that offers benefits and a retirement plan. :dahell:
that's why you control your messaging. Word to the Jewish brehs.

Far too many of our people on the other hand so easily duped

Def starting out. But once you get enough experience, start your own joint and do the same shyt for a fraction of the cost of the bigger companies. Service smaller mom and pop joints or get on with a builder, etc.

Trades never going away. Plus it keeps you active.

Even getting licensed and doing it as a side hustle can be lucrative.

But so many concerned with the image or clout of having certain jobs.
