I don't get the part that's not making sense. Do you think the salary's too low? Sure as shit beats roofing. Won't wreck your knees and back like the trades or concrete work or framing. Industry as a whole's less of a sausage fest than those are, which may be a perk (I dunno, I'm not a barber). Regular hours, no asshole managers or inhumane algorithms deciding you need to commute in for an extra 4-hour late evening shift outside your usual working hours at your fast food job. It's social. You get to be indoors, in air conditioning. You work at one place, don't have to drive all over to get to job sites. Slightly creative but the work largely goes on autopilot once you're good at it, I expect, which in my experience makes time fly. Slow days might suck because you're not making as much money, but if your station's clean & ready I assume you can read or chat or whatever and don't have to pretend to be working, which is draining. Might be (I do not know) easier to get into than a lot of jobs, if you have a criminal record. Nobody makes you factor numbers or solve quadratic equations before being allowed to do it (college algebra—not even calculus—kills a lot of college degree attempts). There's some kind of fairly well-worn path toward starting your own business. Median household income in the US was under $70,000 in 2019. Two adults pulling down $42,000 means you're doing better than median.
