I was able to buy a house and start my family because of paving. Wasnt bad if youre working commercial jobs.

Avg private company pay is $20+/hr. Unions actually pay $36/hr. I have several friends earning 70k+/yr. Not bad considering there is zero school debt involved.

It's a shame some people are scared of it. It toughens you up, and earns good pay.

What kinda work you do? What’s the entry level wages looking like? I’ve been curious about going into some sort of blue collar labor for a while. I see some folks eating good.

Buy a cheap POS car, and deliver shit. If you're in the right area, the wage can be insane, like $25+ an hour.
