wnaplay1647545503 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Its a hard time to be looking. Nowadays I hear people not saying this is what I want to do, but this is how much I need to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Good luck, let me know if you find something. You might as well just cross any building trades off your list now. My brother and I are both considered journyman electricians and can't find anything remotely worth it, now if you want to move out of state that's another option. Not to mention that just having skills in any of those things doesn't mean you have much knowlege of building codes, so all you would stand a chance at is being somebody's bitch and I doubt you'd want that. What is it about working on cars that is turning you off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Are you good at the trades you've listed, or just have done them? Its fairly common especially in the construction trade to find guys who consider themselves a drywaller or a landscaper simply because they have hung a piece of drywall or spread mulch. I just want to know in case I mention you to some guys. Construction gigs/jobs from a business owners standpoint have to be done right in a fairly decent time frame. I hired a tile guy last week that although was great cost me more on a job due to his lack of speed, that I lost money on the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go into chimney sweeping. I seen a guy spend 10mins and walk out with $150 and he said he does that all day long. Anthony why would you have needed a plumber?

MrMeanGreen Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Hot water heater went out. I had a protection plan through Columbia Gas, but it turns out they only pay up to $350 for parts and labor which does not include replacement or overhaul of the heater. He charged Columbia Gas $265 to do a five-minute inspection and told me it needed replaced, which he could do for $1400. My dad and I did it for a total of $500.

Noone has any work right now but maybe spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and I passed your name onto a few guys AJ. Noone has any work right now but maybe spring. ive been thinking of going to an electric tankless hot water heater...a little more to run electric over gas, but electrics ive seen are up to 98% efficient, and i dont have to worry about the uber expensive double walled venting and placing the unit on an exterior wall 8 feet from window and a bunch of other gay restrictions like that.

nuttinfas Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 might as well keep turning wrenchs! your not going to just find a job making 50k or more a year, doing any of those things listed. but gl on your quest. un tru. I'm an electrician and made over 50k last year. I know lots of people say unions are shit but i've been non-union and union in the electrical field and made better money union and work all year round in the union. AJ, if your interested in being an electrician you can apply at the union all and can go to school and get paid decent while goin. just a heads up...
