This is why I’m looking to learn a trade first

this is so fact most schools don't let kids know about the options they have... blessed to have had a teacher that laid out the options

Construction wages need to increase to mid forties.

I've done both. The sad thing is that if you're not taught critical thinking, you will be taken advantage of. If you're going into the trades, GO INTO A UNIONIZED TRADE. If you're interested in going to university, do it, but consider taking on a trade in the summers to pay for school. And when you're done in uni, don't forget to advocate for your friends in the trades. We don't have to polarize yet another thing, why would that be valuable? We need both. Don't spit on the hand that might help you tomorrow.

Did you start ?

Do you mind me sending you a dm?

HI how are you girl!!!??

Same,I'm considering electrician,HVAC or painter. Not sure, I'm intimidated and worried that I won't be good at it or understand it and I know that's all self esteem issues but still,nervous

Be ready for harassment/locker room talk. Unfortunately we're not evolved enough to have ended it, and we're expected to get used to it. Keep an eye out for other women in the trades and advocate for them whenever possible.

"hard work" lmao

Not anything, and I say that as a woman lol

Yessssss 🇯🇲

@@teeyateeyah233 hello Tia how are you?

Please tell me you got into trade!?! Keep me updated!

This is me as well. For so long I’ve wanted to be in the medical field but now recently changed my mind and I want to be in the trades.

@iamedyson update i have my CDL license. Its been a year since having it. May not be the same but i did something else for sure

@@kelly4039 Proud of you🥲

Let's get this girls

Do you mind me sending you a DM?

Should I do HVAC, painting, electric?! I'm intimidated a bit, nervous that I won't be good at the job or understand how electricity works or all that lol advice?

@@carmen3091 depends on your location honestly, you’ll have no problem with electricity it’s fairly easy to comprehend if you’ve got half a brain, first question is which of the main trades do you find most interesting, second where generally in the US are you located, the pay rate varies greatly.

Please advocate for your sisters in the trades, as a man you have more weight in the conversation than we do. We can keep up, but if there are barriers like harassment, many won't stay. I'm speaking as a woman who was in the trades, and am now studying sexual harassment in trades as a graduate student. It's real, it's prevalent, and the job would still get done without the locker room talk.

@@yuordreamsI have to be honest with you most women cannot keep up on the job. It’s got nothing to do with harassment. Trade work is physically demanding, mentally stressful, and unapologetic. The harassment usually comes once it’s obvious they can’t keep up. It’s just like the young guy on the job, if he is good nobody gives him shit but if he slacks and slows everyone down he gets rode hard. The same rules apply to women on the job. I do HVAC and in ten years I know only one female who has made it through apprenticeship and is now licensed.

@@charlesxavier6785 As a woman in automotive currently (studying counseling), real consequences should be in place within HR for harassment against women in trades, and they should be PROTECTED AND HELPED when they aren't keeping the same pace as a man, NOT harrassed....-_-

I was looking into electrian

Did coding work out?

exactly like fast food is cool and all BUTTT i want more.

@@faithmallard8912 you’re beautiful faith! Let’s get this money

Until they get out early due to physical drain. Can’t beat biological clock!

Do you mind me sending you a DM?

@@luiscartagena497 What biological clock? Half of the women here are moms who have sent 2+ kids to college lol.

Do you mind me sending you a DM?

Do you mind me sending you a DM?

I live in NYC and just joined Plumbers Local 1! I went through a women’s pre-apprenticeship program called NEW.

@@realmariela congratulations! 🍾🎊

@@realmariela congrats omg that’s cool asl I live an hour away I think imma get into this when I graduate

@@kathiajansen2131 that’s awesome how was your experience with NEW?

Bruh, same here

It's strange how people talk about all the profits, they've been making through trading of bitcoin, while am here not making any profit at all. Please can Someone put me through on the right path.

Making money is the plan and with Bitcoin Investment your plans can be fulfilled

Trading with an expert in the field is the best, have been making a huge returns from my investment since I met Sandra Jonas Cooper one of the best in crypto currency investment.

I think am blessed if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Sandra Jonas.

She has been handling my account for years now.

@@anastasiassecret3837 get your workboots ready girl. Its time to mow the lawn

@@anastasiassecret3837 “once” “as punishment” lmao you just proved my entire point. Its your turn! Time to go eliminate those gender roles by mowing the lawn and taking the trash out!

@@LiterallyGod I was the only girl with brothers. Military brat. My dad was like a drill sergeant with us kids when it was time to do chores on the weekend. He was not gender biased when it came to chores either. We took turns with certain choirs. My favorite choirs when it was my turn was mowing the lawn " including the weeding with the electric weeder," and taking out all the trash. My least favorite was doing dishes. I also played in girls sports leagues. Volley ball and softball. They didn't have girls baseball where we were stationed at, so softball was close enough. This was in the 80's. was a total tomboy. Still am. A terf one too. I've worked all my adult life, doing some of these jobs too, using heavy equipment. My favorite one was always the reach truck. My point is, not all women are "stepford wives," so, go do some dishes, and fix me a sandwich while your at it....

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

YIKES my guy. you need therapy

Wtf are you saying

@@Latifa-dx2qb I DIDN'T STUTTER.
