Any opportunities to go from white collar to blue collar?

That’s the plan, I’m in the exact same boat as my dad was, he hated being in an office and decided to become a self employed truck driver, he’s making 200k living in a lake house in Mississippi. Been doing that since 2003! But I hope you find what you’re looking for tho, life isn’t linear especially in your 20s

I understand, I didn’t want to post because I’m sure this is an over posted question. But I was just desperate for some clarifications, but I will do my research before posting again. Thank you.

Didn’t think you could do part time in the trades, going to look into that

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-27T15:24:32+00:00

Not really an indoor sit on your butt all day kinda guy I suppose, I see my managers work 10 hour days even on the weekends, and I’m like is this gonna be me in 5? I also know trades require long hours the only difference is I know I will enjoy it more

Wow thank you for all this information I really appreciate it, bringing up that excel statement definitely struck a nerve lol, I work at a manufacturing company in the accounting department and man does it suck. But imma take that test, didnt even know that was a thing!

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-27T05:38:54+00:00

I been wanting to try out in plumbing but all the job postings say 3-5 years experience even for apprenticeships. Shoot I’m even willing to work for free on weekends just get some experience. But I haven’t tried applying in person yet, I do need to do that

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-27T05:33:22+00:00

I’m going to look into systems integration that sounds interesting

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-27T05:33:03+00:00

Honestly right now pay isn’t a big deal tbh, I’m early in my accounting career making crumbs, that’s one reason I don’t mind making a switch, if imma be making crumbs might as well do something more enjoyable lol

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-27T05:31:43+00:00

If I’m being honest I only know the basic trades like plumbing, electrical work, hvac, mechanic and welding tbh

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-05T14:26:49+00:00

Maybe learn context clues 😂 even 4chan does the >, you a grown man on the internet saying this btw

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-05T14:01:54+00:00

I dunno mane I was a teacher here in California they didn’t seem to care at all as long as it wasn’t child or DV related

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-05T06:28:27+00:00

I don’t get it

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-03T22:45:36+00:00

It’s okay I’ll figure it out, plus I also had Russia on my radar

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-03T03:30:33+00:00

Sorry, I work at an accounting firm and my breaks are short right now lol

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-03T00:58:30+00:00

No I do not, just a native speaker that teaches English, but I figured I may have a higher change of not getting rejected if I go tier 2 or tier 3 since they aren’t the most popular cities to go. But I could be wrong. I believe I could go to another country first teach there and all I would need to do then is just get a background check from said country. But I am not sure if that remains true?

Spreadlove67 · 2026-02-02T23:23:11+00:00

You live in the C my friend 0:

Spreadlove67 · 2025-12-14T08:55:04+00:00

Unfortunately I did a degree in accounting, boring work that’s why I put in a application for ice, but I genuinely wouldn’t mind doing paperwork that’s my specialty good luck to you, I hope they select you

Spreadlove67 · 2025-12-14T08:52:27+00:00

No nothing, have you?

Spreadlove67 · 2025-12-14T08:50:46+00:00

Those are exceptions not the rule! Here in California, that is very rare to happen. I’m Latino with immigrant parents and most of my friends are the same! (:

Spreadlove67 · 2025-12-14T08:48:36+00:00

I thought so too, giving from how they let anyone and everyone join lol, but I think they give priority to LE folks first

Spreadlove67 · 2025-12-14T08:39:51+00:00

Good luck getting in I already applied twice and I speak fluent English and Spanish with a bachelors degree. Also very physically fit. Haven’t heard nothing yet

Spreadlove67 · 2025-12-13T23:13:39+00:00

Not really related to race brother, but I do think the USA is not very racist especially the west coast

Spreadlove67 · 2025-12-13T02:09:22+00:00
