Backups are the plan, if you’re a plumber.
Comment on It’s a dark time to be a tech worker right now
EatATaco@lemm.ee 4 months agoOne thing I’ve learned in my time of DIY is that plumbing could never be a back up plan. Man I hate it and it stinks and cramped. Not easy work.

That’s why it pays well. Garbage person jobs pay well too. Few people want to wake up early and smell like garbage all day.

I know a guy who works at a dump in LA county. He’s retiring with pension in his early 50’s. I’m kind of jealous.

Care to back it up with numbers? Because it’s been like 4.6 Gy since I last saw a garbage disposal person or a plumber driving their SUV out of their 3-floor house.

This sounds intuitive but these “dirty jobs” aren’t nearly as available and profitable as people believe. Relatedly, Mike Rowe is an asshole.
