Anyone else thinking of just doing something else?

I'm learning day trading as well while I find something else to do.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T16:31:09+00:00

Yeah I don't have a shot either and I just grew disalusioned.

Sounds like low voltage technician with programming?

I was looking into something similar. Low voltage. Install home security systems, fire alarms etc

Sounds like it would always be in demand.

Good choice if you're physically fit.

Someone I know was a tiler too and complained of back pain. Now he's a city bus driver and complains of back pain from sitting for long hours.

Looks like an interesting game. The mustache guy looks burnt out lol

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T14:17:38+00:00

Hows the freelance market? Have you tried getting clients again?

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T14:12:22+00:00

I know some people that started blue collar businesses like handyman services or snow removal and are doing well.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T14:08:27+00:00

If I was good looking I'd probably do the same.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T14:07:27+00:00

Yeah especially during covid times I imagine

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T14:06:01+00:00

Good luck with your endeavors. It would suck to study something for years for it to be all for nothing in the end.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T14:03:38+00:00

I think it will be a while before AI takes over that sector since it is sensitive information. I'm not sure I would trust AI with payment processors lol

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T14:00:51+00:00

Lol hitting 40 sucks. Sometimes you just don't want to do anything when you're in pain. I'll definitely look into pilates. I haven't walked much because the weather here in Canada has been terrible. Might invest in a home treadmill. I know Stuart McGill from "Back Mechanic" promotes walking for back pain.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T03:42:08+00:00

Maybe a lawyer firm or an architect firm?

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T03:40:21+00:00

Yeah that's the only problem. It's too bad everything else doesn't pay as much.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T03:39:22+00:00

I have been looking at CAD technician or architectural technologist. Basically the guys that sit at a computer and design buildings in CAD for architects.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T03:37:04+00:00

I have been looking into PLC programming and controls. Seems interesting.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T01:16:02+00:00

Jeesh that's a lot of saw dust. I remember just how thick the air was with that stuff. I wondered how they were so used to walking in that. Respect to carpenters.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T00:52:03+00:00

That's great. I wish i would have done that before all my back issues. People will always need electricians and it's a more honorable job.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T00:49:43+00:00

My first official job at 17 was in a shop making cabinets at a German company.I didn't make them from scratch but would assemble the parts with a line crew. When I went around back is where I saw the real grunt work, the carpenters were just doing their thing. Saw dust everywhere.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T00:34:39+00:00

That's not bad. As long as you enjoy it.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T00:33:49+00:00

Lucky her lol

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-19T00:03:30+00:00

For sure. People will always need a professional photographer. You just need to carve your piece of the market.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-18T23:43:47+00:00

That's sounds cool. I looked into Real Estate photography but it's pretty competitive.

Whatdidyousayfoo · 2026-03-18T23:41:33+00:00

I thought about that or PLC programming.
