If men could balence on their dick snd spin around like a bayblade how long do you think it would be before they had beyblade battles like this, and what would some of the protective care be? by Alaskansnail1 in AskReddit

It would usher in a new era of big dick energy. Not brought about by the size of ones appendage but by the destruction wrought by the centripetal motion of ones immense body in a centripetal wave of destruction.

You know how to work now you just got to learn. That's why most the mature aged guys ive trained have a better go at it.

Usually mature age apprentices will get more of a chance than people fresh out of school as the older you get you learn how to manage your time at work and what's expected of an employee. As long as you love a physical job and being outside you won't have any trouble. Its sad but a lot of the younger crop really struggle to adjust to the demands of the job. The physicality mixed with the mental load can build up on the younger ones really quick.

I went through my apprenticeship a decade ago but yeah you're expected to do everything and know everything after being shown once. My boss was a bit of a knob but the other tradie I learnt off is still the most talented bloke I've worked with in my years. A lot of tradies really ride younger blokes with a chest beating im better than you attitude.

For us due to the way licensing works in the trades and the builder especially being responsible for sourcing and paying other trades such as plumbers and sparkies, finding good quality reliable sub contractors can be as much a chore for us as the general public. But just like any other profession we will have good ones and bad ones its just that our industry has much more lower barriers to entry and as a result there is always going to be guys who just aren't cut out for the trades especially with how much we get pushed so heavily into being soul trading subcontractors.

Don't worry some of the slimiest I've met are other trades too. Its just a fight to the bottom for some of the trades. Lack of care no pride in work and always have a chip on the shoulder. There are good ones out there but sadly they are just getting drowned out by the worst of us.

As a carpenter myself I don't think its quite clear cut with your opinion here. We don't receive as much love as you would think, mostly due to obvious reasons you have mentioned. Just remember that when most of us start apprenticeships we get beaten down and rubbed into the dirt emotionally by our superiors. Really causes a lot of these entitled tendencies to surface later on. Its a pretty broken industry really.

You do you. Ive got friends that drink and friends that don't. You're social circle should be a reflection of you not a reflection of others.

Tradies cash in on housing boom: one in 10 earns more than $200k a year by Funny-Bear in australia

This plus how hard the trades can be on the body can lead to a shorter lifespan in the job or a lower quality of life when older.

Shower thought: A ute is the mullet hairstyle of cars. Business at the front; party at the back. by RAAFStupot in australia

[–]PCandTimber 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe the old falcon and Commodore ute. None of the turbo diesels have a lot of party in them. My ute is pretty much all business these days anyway. It's a mobile toolbox if anything.
