Jobs that pay good.

[dirtfan21]

I have never heard that a union worker makes too much money and I absolutely believe they should be paid well for skilled labor, 100%. I actually believe some don't get paid enough. The complaint is that the prevailing wage is too high, as in the wage that we have to pay to a union to work is quite a bit.

 

By the way that 40K I stated does figure in my benefits, my employer pays to my 401K and then pays what my match would be. So sir, each check I pay 32 dollars toward insurance and so on so forth.

Ok back on topic. There has been way to much misinterpretation and this has spun way off the map. We all know how internet arguing goes. Lets all agree to disagree.

Two words...rail road. Good pay, benefits, retirement, the works. No degree nessesary, all training is paid for by the company (I work for Union Pacific). A basic day is about $230, add over time, and you're doing pretty good.

If you are up for moving, come out to western ND. Oil companies are looking for workers with thousands of jobs available. Tanker truck drivers are pulling 100k+ and unskilled laborers are making 80k+. The only problems are tough to find housing and long hours.

Tough is an under statement! But your right, good money to be made out there, hard and dangerous work but if you need some quick cash then that is a good route to go.

I suggest learning basic grammar and spelling skills first. Especially if you intend to pursue teaching.

Look into becoming a power lineman or powerline technician (what we are where im from). We work 10-12 hour days, most places pay x2-over time now and when you make your way up you get paid a lot better, and its a fun job! (who else can control the power of the gods haha) J-Man here make around $115,000.00 to $130,000.00 before taxes Canadian. (forgot to mention, 3 day weekends almost every weekend, I only work monday to thursday)

I know i have bad grammar and spelling. These are one of my most hardest faults in school. You wont believe the frustration when i know the answer in a test and cant spell it . (you pm me about this early and took a shot at me in private. I can handle that but to publicly take a shot at me like this is just low. I have a 60 pg paper due this semester and I will be happy if I get a C grade in it because of my grammar skills.On the internet here I tend to put less effort in it and not worry as much about it .

$200 a day x 5 days a week is $1000 a week, or $52,000 a year. Become a police officer, not too hard to make that much! Or so I hear...

I went to work in the construction industry in 1968... scared to death of heights. The first job I worked on was on the roof of a steel building. I made it 2 days!!!! Changed to underground/utility type construction and never looked back. Have been 30 FT to 60 FT underground... deepest excavation was 55 FT below grade... and never been bothered. 10 FT in the air... and I still get the "willies".

About 4 years ago, I was on a project that required construction of an intake structure in the bottom of a river. The contractor drove sheet piling into the river bottom and pumped out the piling. We worked about 25 FT below the surface of the water. You could look up and see the piling leaking and know water was well above you. Again, no problem with working down there.

Many more people are killed by trench/excavation cave-ins than are killed falling off ladders. I've never had any difficulty with claustrophobia or any problem working deep. Every person seems to be unique in what they enjoy... or can tolerate.

That's the problem with modern society, nobody gives a crap anymore. Basic literacy should not even require effort. This country used to have top notch education, but it is obvious that is no longer the case. Very sad.

 

I was an A/B student, with mostly C's in English. Average at best. Yet compared to most people these days, I am way above average. Why? Because nobody cares anymore.

[Morgan1986]

What a high opinion of yourself and basically told everyone that your better than them . Most people cant stand to be around those type of people and they make poor leaders. You must be really lonely , I almost feel sad for you .

 

Nice car BTW . Why does she have a name tag on her chest ?

High opinion? If stating that I am "average" (at best) at grammar is speaking highly of myself, well, I rest my case.

 

She was at work.
