Blue collar, skilled trades jobs are hurting for people. Why? The last couple of generations of kids were told to go to college and get a degree that doesn't mean a thing. Gender Studies degree? Really? They don't want to get their hands dirty. They would rather play on the computer, then make something with their hands. How many people have degrees that can't get a job in the field of their studies? A lot. The local trades unions here have been putting ads out to attract people. A apprentice starting out, learning a skill gets paid $40,000 a yr.

Amen, agree 100%.

College can many times be an overrated debt ridden waste.

Lol,

The secret to a healthy marriage that lasts for decades is a little bit of time apart sometimes.

Plus that’s a really long trip for me, I can’t travel that far.

Agreed! These days you don't know who or what you are taking home from the bar. Glad to be married to a woman.
