ever get looked down upon for your job

u ever had ppl kind of look down on you after you tell them what you do., oh your a pastry chef. or oh you dont have university. oh just 8 months of schooling hey. or before when i was in school i was just going to college and not univ and they would say oh . or if you in the IT field as computer repair person and not some kind of big shot PC engineer making the chips. well what happens if you just cant get into the univeristy or marks


they dont care to talk to you after you tell them what you do. and some of them give you that smirk or look like their better than you

you ask them what they do and generally they have a univ degree in some kind of technical engieering or high end white collar job in a corp company.

this is not with dating or with girls, but just casual talking with ppl you meet at events or social networking. some through church or volunteer co workers,. just everywhere you go.
im guessing most girls wont date a guy with lower education.

i like to hear your stories, of ppl if it has happened to you before. what do u think of it and this

im chinese but westernized one.

Lol is plumber a good career? Most people will say no but think about it in details, they go to their daytime job and make decent money and after work they do their own business making cash.

I can tell you just working a few hours a night they make more than their day job lol and remember they get paid cash for it so it is all tax free money. Sure the job is dirty but you get paid well.

That goes the same for carpterner, Auto Mech, Computer Tech........

In fact they might make more money that a fresh graduate or even a university guraduate that's been working for 10+years.

But really Joe you would never get it and we all know you won't ever come back to this thread again so why make them? What you need is some confident.

Also, I like to know are you one of those 300lbs 5ft2 kid that lives in your parent's basement and doesn't pay rent, leech off your parents and is jobless?

Plumbers get a bad rap for 2 reasons. They work with Shit and they have that whole Plumbers Butt thing going on haha. Other than that they are a trade like any other and get paid pretty damn well for doing it.

Berz out.

Yeah man, but it's a tough industry as you're always on call. I was talking to my plumber few weeks ago who was fixing my drainage system and he said he had to work from 8am to 2 am on some nights. That's crazy! But the labour rate is like 100 an hour.

Years ago my dads friend got a plumbing apprenticeship. He knew pretty much nothing about the trade except for the fact that "shit don't flow uphill"

I thought he said he was in the IT field? Not UBC engineering...

anyhow, i don't think he's banned... there's too much entertainment value to his posts...

Ok what do plumber learn in their 4 year apprenticeship?
1. Payday is Friday
2. Don't eat with your hands
3. Shit rolls down hill
4. Every asshole is a customer

My buddy is a private investigator, and so many people are all "Oh cool, you're awesome!" when he tells them that he started lying about it like

"Oh what do you do?"

"Garbage man."

"Oh... neat?"

"Yeah it's cool, you find all kinds of stuff in the garbage, like bras, and and shit you can fix, and shit like that. It's a little gross the morning after prom night, but other than that, totally rad."
