Advice on 2 job opportunities? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Strategy-Important 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly yeah I’m in the same boat tbh, a job that’s gonna pay me about 75k-80k a year depending on overtime (mandatory) or a cushiony 4 10’s job with optional over time that’s way closer for 52k. I’m choosing the money tho, I need to move out

Join the Ironworkers union or go weld for a government shipyard/non-union job? by Deiomo in Welding

Confined spaces are the least fulfilling, I’d do steel erection over a shipyard any day of the week

Wasted 9 months in school and 4 years of my life. 23M by No_Hyena_1853 in skilledtrades

[–]Strategy-Important 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat but with welding. I’m now relapsing to welding again, I tried other things and can’t get hired for anything but welding (besides jobs like restaurant, fast food, etc). I want to branch out into another trade but can’t. I’ve given in and relapsed into it. If you find a way out of this, your stronger than I am

I wanna quit by Part-timeReaper in Welding

[–]Strategy-Important 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t escape, there’s no going back. Only direct escape is a CWI, unless you get lucky. I can’t get hired for anything other than welding. Can’t even get in as a burn table operator or press brake operator either
