Different Blue Collar Trades 

I’m a smart kid with the books but I can’t physically be still , my mind is always racing wanting to fix something and soon enough weld some sh$t! Going to a weld school rn and am hella excited

Hard work ! All day...

Hell yeah cuz this is hard work only hardwork

Kool hearing it from the old timers...

I got in the trade welding 24 years ago started in oilfield shop for two years then I bounce out of that into plant work as a combo pipe welder then had some issues due to my hearing impairment I have plus I had a hard time with understanding the welding machine since welding school I went to didn’t have one so I got confused on how to dial it right plus I had to learn it the hard way. Then after dealing with too much issues with safety people over not wearing ear plugs since I wear hearing aides couldn’t take my aides out otherwise I hear nothing. So I got out of plant work went back to shop welding. It’s one of my biggest regret leaving plant welding. Now I’m fixing to be 49 years old in few days thinking it’s time I get back to tig and stick pipe welding! Need yo find a good teacher to get me going.

I like the message at the beginning, I'm only 14, but my goal is getting in the trades.

If I had to do it all over again with what I know today, I would have joined a millwrights union as an apprentice

dedication, I love it.

Guys don’t waste your money and go in debt at college because if it ain’t for you don’t do it pick up a trade especially at a young age the money is good and there’s always a job out there

That’s right brother keep them videos coming 🔥🔥🔥

Mira! Finish high school. Learn to wright the English language to tell a story in 500 words or less. Learn to measure things accurately and make sketches that tell the story of what you need and don't dwell on any of it too long. Forget the damned poetry. Poetry and non-technical literature don't count for a damned thing once you are out of high school! And then humble yourself and ask for a helper job from the old guys. Take the low wages, minimum wage if you have to, get experience as a great helper. Stay off the phone and watch the tradesmen. Find out which trade you want to migrate into and be a suck-ass by the "telephone boys" estimation until you get an opportunity to take an apprenticeship in welding, rigging, electrician, hydraulics tech, crane operator (hold a tag line and watch the loads and weights) or whatever trade you want to follow. Chalk up the low wages to not having a student loan debt and then work your ass off and find friends in your chosen trade, get along with everybody owner to helper and work at it instead of standing around with your thumb in your ass. Always avoid horseplay that can get folks killed, pay attention to the old guys and always be of good humor. Then work for about fifty more years and understand you were a successful man or woman... Never talk down of yourself because of a lack of a college degree. It is the family fed, friends made and the financial success you gained that counts.

Scaffold builder was just holding the scaffold to make sure it don’t fall 😂

Trade schools, get in the field and get those hands dirty and pick up a trade . I started as a roustabout and boilermaker helper, let me tell ya hard work, training and school pays off, hell you really don't need much school maybe courses and field experience.
