In New York particularly this could maybe work. They have strong blue collar unions so benefits and pay would be actually livable. Plumbing anywhere is pretty viable. Faulkner worked in construction and did a similar thing. I am working in tech to fund my creative pursuits, an industry on its way to being blue collar
- hn_throwaway_99 2y agoNot at all. Do you know what it actually takes to get in to those blue collar unions in NYC? It's not at all a "I can just show up, with no experience, and convince a business owner to give me a job" like Glass did.
- neaanopri 2y agoWell it sounds like glass was charismatic enough to get people to take a chance on him
- JKCalhoun 2y agoGlass learning plumbing by asking the guys working at the hardware store sounds more like handy-man work, not a union job.
- thechao 2y ago> I am working in tech to fund my creative pursuits, an industry on its way to being blue collar I can't tell if you think tech or art is going to be blue collar, but based on the AI revolution, you should stay in tech, or join UA.
