I don’t think i said any of that. I think you’re just more upset than you need to be. You are angry typing and making all kinds of mistakes.
I never said college was dumb, I said you don’t need it for my job. I graduated college with under $5k debt. You said college for 10 years, and that would put you at well over an undergrad degree, unless you were taking like 4 credits a term. A masters degree will cost you around $150k and 10 years.
I never said everyone should be a mechanic, but there is nothing wrong with it. It’s not hard to make money unless you stay in a dead end position. That’s the same for almost any career tho.
I also never said you were either rich or poor. I don’t know or care about your financial positions in life. Much like your genitals: unless they’re being used on me, it’s none of my fucken business what you got.
I did make poor choices when I was young, but I am now older and have made much better decisions as I grew, coincidentally enough starting with a bicycle mechanic job. It was super cool and I learned a lot. But you are right, it didn’t pay the bills.
So I found a different mechanic job, one that paid around triple the bike mechanic job. It was somewhere I’d seen advertised for some time, so i checked it out and it made sense. I drove all over my state doing field service work. It was a good job, but i was at the “national average” pay for mechanics at that time. So I found another job, it paid around 50% more and had much better benefits and all the overtime i wanted (it wasn’t mandatory). I worked there a couple years and found another job that paid 25% more, and for the first time in my life, I was earning over $100k, and no overtime necessary.
The thing is, these last several jobs have been constantly hiring entry level mechanics at “national average” or higher since long before i started.
You seem to have a lack of understanding about being a mechanic. I can guarantee you that, as a mechanic. Unless you don’t want to try, the chances of you being stuck in a bike shop at $20/hr for the rest of your life is much lower than “99999/10000” (999.99%🤣) in fact, it doesn’t even approach 100/10000 (you know, 1%).
Anyway, don’t be so mad, and don’t take everything so personal. I’m not trying to make fun of you or hurt your feelings.
no, you’re just being a typical internet person who can’t let go of the bone, and accuses the other poster of doing everything you are doing thinks their personal experience is a universal truth, when the googled facts of the matter directly contradict you.
because it’s all about your ego, in the end. can’t let anyone question you because that would mean you might be incorrect.
Ok, well I’m glad you googled your facts. The internet is never wrong or misleading. You would definitely know all about that, being a very successful IT person…
