Tried getting into tiling/flooring, could feel it absolutely destroying my knees. Got out of that pretty quick. Totally not worth it.

AND, another instance of my hoping to be taken on as an Apprentice, only for the guy to be a complete prick and take me for a ride. What a waste of my time and energy and physical well being

Yeah apprenticing sucks. All the old guys seem to think apprentices are just floor sweepers and aren't there to learn. And they all like to brag about what slow learners they are. "It took me twenty years to learn this!" So they refuse to teach you because when you learn faster than them it makes them feel stupid.

So glad I don't work with anyone like that anymore.

Shuuuuut the fuck up old man, you grew up in an era where the government was practically THROWING homes, cars, jobs and land at you. Now you're pissy that a younger generation is just wanting to be treated fairly in a world that's become increasingly hostile and greedy. Get your head out of your geriatric ass.
