Those are all the jobs that men do. Men are more likely to commit that.

Yup

i think that has more to do with it than anything

men in general are just more likely to commit suicide

whatever profession has the most black women will also have the lowest suicide risk because they're less likely to off themselves

Cac males will kill themselves over damn near anything. Cac males run the trades and trade unions.

Question asked...

blue collar vs white collar war

Question answered.

Unceasing psyops.





You'd think educators would be right up there amongst the worst numbers, considering how poorly they get treated. They have their happiness despite it all. That's kind of amazing if you think about it.

My guess is due to chronic pain from a life spent on your knees under a sink or contorted in an awkward position in an attic or something.

Bad knees, bad back, arthritis, tinnitus, etc... are common among older blue collar workers.

I don't think blue collar workers are unhappy, but there's no denying that the work takes a toll on the body.

Takes a toll leads to drinking the pain away and could lead to a unhealthy lifestyle pops is a plumber set to retire later this year at 25 years in a union. I’ve seen his drinking problems he’s gotten a lot better. I’ve seen his unhealthy lifestyle had to get a stent put in stopped working out. He’s gonna have to get knee replacement to. Was also a combat engineer in the army and had ptsd. I don’t think he’s unhappy but some people can’t take the pain to be honest and it leads do doing other things to take away the pain and bad habits lots of cats blow cocaine on the regular to.

The hell is construction and extraction? You need to break that down if you gone make a thread like this

 

[Prince.Skeletor]

I don't see how that is possible.
I know people in the renovation business and they are pretty happy. I don't know if that falls under constraction and extraction LMAOOO wtf is extraction?
Most of them are immigrants that speak english as a 2nd or 3rd language, and they are their own boss.
Only problem is the people you recruit usually just learn under you for a few years then go do their own thing, so recruitment is volatile.

Also these guys are EATING right now during covid.
Since people are not travelling they spending that money on home projects.

Education
Being a part of people's improvement makes the stress worth it.

Management is further down than I expected

wtf is extraction?

Mining/drilling

Stigma attached to blue collar work doesn’t help. People so ignorant. There are still people who think farmers are stupid or people in trades are uneducated.
