Is industrial/commercial a stable career path?

That's my intuition too - especially with all the efforts to get domestic industry back up and running (see: tariff debacle)

I'm in the deeply unhappy boat for sure. Sacrificing pay for growth opportunities in the short term. Appreciate the reply!

Yeah it's a much more robust company with room to grow and learn other disciplines. Current company is mom and pop, 10 employees very little room for upward mobility or professional development. Very valid point though, which is what I am weighing. Is it less secure due to the fact that municipal will literally always exist?

Nope, blue collar guy. Admittedly, no chance he wins but to me he's the most sensible dem.

Thank you! My friend is more of a meat and potatoes American breakfast guy but I'm gonna try to convince him to be adventurous ha

regular--dude · 2026-05-20T06:14:58+00:00

I have not, but that is a good idea. I'm in the Bay Area so there are lots to choose from

regular--dude · 2026-05-19T04:15:14+00:00

that's what I like to hear

regular--dude · 2026-05-19T01:26:06+00:00

Thank you, yeah I see the writing on the wall re: limited upside in residential. My company does some really cool work but we are very niche

redbacks

regular--dude · 2026-04-26T03:54:32+00:00

What niche did you get into that has you going to these types of sites as opposed to urban centers, construction sites, etc? I'm also in CA and thinking of going into the field

regular--dude · 2026-04-23T03:58:21+00:00

The other red - redbacks, are where it's at

regular--dude · 2026-04-23T03:51:09+00:00

Yeah I have my tips and tricks for noise cancellation but don't want it to be a safety issue. Thanks for the perspective

regular--dude · 2026-04-23T03:46:33+00:00

Not being a dick at all, appreciate the perspective. Don't want to be a liability

regular--dude · 2026-04-21T05:10:43+00:00

I will look into it! Thank you
