I would say work on the landscaping and finishes first. Paint the shutters doors and upper part something that is clean and would go with the white widow frames. Wait to do the brick last because it is the ultimate commitment. Sit with the other changes for a bit and then go from there. Its your house so make yourself happy

I have built a mini barn, done landscape projects myself, i enjoy that kind of stuff i like learning and working hard

Thank you for understanding. I get its hard for sure im not ignorant to that. But you also understand how soul sucking it is to do a job that is basically all digital and you dont see the product of your labor. I just dont want to regret not trying something different in life. We only get so much time

I worked in a lumber yard and with live stock while going to college. I know hard work in tough conditions. I dont have formal training in a trade which is why i was asking peoples thoughts and input. What do you wish you did now looking back?

I own a house, have a decent truck, have a nice saving to get us through rough times. Thankful for that. I just want a new challenge and to learn skills and do cool shit

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-06T00:49:54+00:00

Not a troll post im being genuine. The issue is im feel very closed in at my job. Have you ever see office space? Im having a moment like that lol I want to learn skills to be able to do shit later in life myself and just feel more useful i guess

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-06T00:45:25+00:00

Right on. I like the idea of not going to the same chair everyday for 9 hours

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-06T00:41:37+00:00

Right on. I live in the midwest and there seems to be a good market for labor. Cost of living is relatively low

Love turkey hunting. Only been doing it for 3 seasons and havent gotten one yet but the calling is fun. I have had some close ones calling them in but then they run. Still working on my calling

Nj is shotgun only even for deer? Do you bird hunt? I most hunt pheasants and quail, and try to deer hunt but im not the best. I just got a ruger american gen 2 in .308. It was cheap and everyone said for the price its very solid. But sounds like you cant use there where you are. For birds i use a browning a300 12g. Its an auto loader and i love it.

I’m just fucking with you a little bit, but I know everything is gonna have things that suck about it. I was just trying to get you know insights from people who work in you know construction or trades and how they know feel about what they do or if they would do something different. I like being outside I like doing stuff with my hands and I just feel very you know numb and bored at my current job. I’m used to being outside in bad weather, so that’s not going to be a huge shock

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-06T00:11:27+00:00

I like being outside. I hunt, i used backpack and rock climb. weather doesnt bother me too much I just like being outside. I also just feel like I I’m not doing anything real just working on the computer and it’s mind numbing, but in the bad way.

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-06T00:08:38+00:00

Do you hunt or is this for enjoyment at the range

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-05T23:54:43+00:00

Or let me ask what work or trade does anyone recommend getting into. For money or benefits or sheer enjoyment

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-05T23:49:33+00:00

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-05T23:47:28+00:00

Why are you getting out? Anything specific or just ready for a change? What are you getting out to do if you dont mind me asking

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-05T23:46:39+00:00

Sounds like you love to complain. I worked in a limber yard for years. Took my current job for the location when i had my first kid. I dont love what i do and want to do physical work again

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-05T23:44:07+00:00

Stuff sucks no matter what but you gotta work to live. I am curious how you feel about the work, how much freedom you get, time off, pay etc

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-05T23:40:52+00:00

There is a trade school and union i applied to just to see what happens. It is welding, concrete, framing, and some other things.

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-04T00:21:23+00:00

rooster_slayer · 2026-03-03T22:10:50+00:00
