Way too expensive for what? If you're making under the $40/h that they do and you're still young and fit then maybe you could switch? I hear this sentiment a lot though but knowing plenty of blue collar workers they aren't so desperate for bodies they're beating down the doors of middle aged softhands like us.
- pclmulqdq 2y agoHeavy equipment operators start at around $100/hour where I live. A more extreme case is that I know a union AC tech in NYC who makes the equivalent of a Google salary (about $300-400k/year) and he doesn't pull a ton of overtime to do it.
- geor9e 2y ago>AC tech in NYC who makes the equivalent of a Google salary My immediate thought was "thats crazy, capitalism is out of whack" My second thought was realizing I couldn't rationalize Google salaries either. I could imagine a parallel universe where they make less than civil/mechanical engineers (~$160 TC). Supply and demand I guess.
