I work as a Canadian welder and make 500k a year. Without us your world would fall apart. That bridge you drive over its held up by other welders like me. That fucking car you drive is held together by my fellow union welding brothers.

I work in the medical gas sector. We weld and prefab all the working gas fittings for hospitals. Without guys like me your surgerys that you pay to go get in the hospital wouldn't happen. I Might even save your life one day because of one of my welds.

You want to know the best part about being a welder though? At the end of the day I can actually hold my hard earned cash in my hands. That's right I can count it and feel it. Unlike these scammy crypto coins that have absolutely no use case and will go no where but zero.

So why don't you do yourself a favour. Put down the laptop and pick up the torch. Ignite the spark to your financial freedom.

With the Trump steel tariffs my American union welding brothers will be making AT LEAST 700k/year

Sounds like you like to suck cock and have cum sprayed over your vizor.

weld your mouth shut like a good faggot

Lel, cars are welded by robots. Fag

arent you boys about to be replaced by robots

How do you weld Canadians together?
Maple syrup?

We rub baby seal eyes on the metal, use penguin blood as an accelerant and then use hockey sticks as the power source. fuck they don't teach much to you guys do they

And if I wanted to enter your industry you would act like a faggot and box me out of jobs and training.

Oh yes they are. Welding will soon be a daycare profession

Keep up the good work man. I suck at welding and I can appreciate how hard it is to be good at it.

how is a robot going to do custom welding job, or jobs that require adjustments made to the pieces or designs to fit or make sense properly?
Sure you can do it with factory labour like cars but there's a lot of custom designs that go through, from ships to engineering projects, etc.

You haven't seen the robots we're starting to replace you with

Sup.. not fag here... all up in your lack of fusion, keeling your doodz.

Depends on the setting. In factories, probably, because it's always the same thing being done.

But for most other welders, they're just probably get their title changed to "Welding Machine Supervisor". There's so much technical shit and know-how involved to do a good weld like the kind of metal, the angle, what kind of tool to use, etc. Might use a machine to do the welding in the end, but the choice of what technique to use can only be made by an experienced human.

I work as a truck driver, doing the job even the most advanced computers + tranny cant.

I make almost nothing, and I'm surrounded by shitskins and nigs and drive through liberal shitholes daily.

You do a job that robots do much better at, but it's cheaper and lazier to have a human do it. Such a bs life.

Your fucking delusional if you dont think a computer can be programmed to make welding descisions. It's the easiest thing to automate.

im not a welder, thats why im asking. I dont think AI is sophisticated enough to do those kinds of jobs yet, is it?

Of course not. Futurists love to think every job will be automated by 2020

I know your full of shit because you're bragging about your wage

>welder

Yes... sure buddy

great attitude user

Yes, if someone programs it to do it. That's why I said worst case the welders will get their job title changed to "Welding Machine Supervisor", so they input the data. And I'm talking on non-factory jobs, custom jobs. You need someone to asses the situation.

You're the delusional one if you think companies will invest millions to create some kind of AI to do that. You're just talking about it because you don't really know what welding is and you think you take a magic glue gun and all metals melt together magically.

They can't develop a machine that goes in some random place, assess the situation with its experience, can recognize the kind of metal he's dealing with through cameras without even touching it, understands the client's needs (not what the client says, because the client doesn't know about welding, he just wants something done), what kind of rod to use if you're doing arc-welding, etc.

That shit is dozens if not hundreds of years in the future from now. We're talking a human-like machine that can make thorough decisions.

Doesn't someone have to look it over and make sure it's a proper weld anyway?

and its still not here, for the AI to develop sufficiently enough, machines to be made utilizing things properly, testing phases, and mass producing the actual machines will take years, maybe decades. Even then there is plenty of room for welders in society, its a very broad craft that is applied in a lot of different things, any metal working field, really. So it's still a pretty good skill to have, not to mention the self-sufficiency from just being able to do it, if not for a profession.

It's a meritocracy. You don't get handed a fucking pass because you got a degree, you have to prove yourself before you're taken seriously.

In the shop, no prob. Lots of orbital tigs running off computers.

Bit in the field its a diff situation. You need to climb up, find the apot to repair, strip off insulation and try and fit the thinnest dude in to male a repair. For an example, the view from my office

Cool story bro.

I enjoy your maple syrup monopoly money by your shitty industrial trades job that you’ll be doing for the best years of your life.

Keep working for someone else & and have sully pride in your shitty job and get the fuck out here with this blogshit next time.

I do that + machinist + dye maker
Get on my level pleb

He is full of shit. I've been at it for over 10 year, always work has a foreman or general foreman and work 13 hour days. Made 200k a few times. I work where its one of the highest rates in canada too.

Running your own rig might get you to 200k

nice set-up, how'd you get into it?

I mean, 300k for your own rig

Welder here.

No no no ahah. I’ve seen some of the machines that weld and they can barely run a bead without fucking up. Most of being a welder isn’t actually fusing metal together. I do about 100 different things in a day. Sometimes a shipment of metal will come in that was damaged in transit or simple be manufactured poorly. We have to get creative and make it work. Sometimes a gust of wind will blow through while welding and it will mess up the weld in a way that I’m not sure a machine could detect without really sophisticated processor. I’m not saying that this industry couldn’t be automated, but it would take about the same amount of effort and money as they’re trying to put into making self driving cars right now. And even then a lot of welding jobs aren’t mass production but are just “hey can you weld this weird thing I drew up”

This
I do as I said post above and I do not make that much

i make around 135k a year welding, and im only part time seasonal.

Robotics is for production shops anyways I wouldn't want to build dumpsters and car frames anyways.

they dont exist and they arent really portable
blue collar is much safer than white collar
paper pushing women are incredibly automatable

>I work as a Canadian welder
I'd think Canadians would be the sort of things where you'd use nails, or epoxy.

In Canadian Dollar that's roughly 175k

And in Canada, there's a shitload of jobs in the far north where wages are like literally 5-10 times as much.

It's like if you worked in the uninhabited parts of Alaska.

I started out as a apprentice welder with the boilermakers union. Then after i became a boilermaker as well. I've atuck to working out in the field, all my jobs are only a few months long at a time
So i have a fair bit of free time between jobs and i dont need to stick with a specific company. But when i work its 13 hours a day, everyday.

Torch? You're not one of those faggy mig welding cunts who can't run a bead with a proper electrode are you?
Stick welding is better by miles, generator runs out of diesel? Pop the hood of the van, no gas left in the bottles? Pop that hood.
Stick let's you weld in the arse end of nowhere provided you have a vehicle and jumper cables without having to lug about fuck loads of equipment, aren't getting enough amps? Rev the ballex out of the engine and you're laughing

Or maple syrup.

You sound pretty gay, plus you lie poorly -- nobody's making $500k welding anything in this country.

Normies are so fucking retarded
Look up programs like feature cam.
You'll always need people to create the programs and people to do the adjustments on the machines.

Better on conventional for that.
Be more worried about algorithm taking jobs from people like researcher lawyers.

Talk about being over paid

If you pay close attention to OP and all of the other blue collar degenerate scum fucks in this thread you'll notice how they all tout their wages. BUT, none of them ever mentions how they contribute any of their wealth and prosperity to the white race-- in any way. That's because: they don't. You see the blue collar white working class is the greediest, most selfish, and degenerate group of whites on the planet. For most of their existence they have pushed communism and socialism at every turn in order to artificially inflate their wages, which resulted in massive outsourcing.

They have been the largest driving forces in the destruction of white countries by supporting leftism which has lead us ALL to multiculturalism, factory closures, mass immigration, and widespread degeneracy.

The white blue collar worker has done more damage to white countries than the JEWS will ever do. They also tend to be Christian which causes even more problems.

I've made a LOT of money in tech and I'm going to retire from that soon. I am going to do everything in my power and use all of my wealth to automate and provide massive efficiency gains into blue collar jobs. I want to wipe out the blue collar class for all time. I hope I destroy ever last one of you and your incomes. I want you all on welfare living in ghettos with niggers where you belong.

Hell, if you're specialized in underwater welding and go in the arctic waters, you're paid insane amounts.

I've worked with welding robots, they fuck up a lot. They can't know if the weld they are doing is good or not, they just know move to x,y,z cords. Oh no the gas line got fouled and now the whole part is bad. Oh no the machine has a faulty stop and now the welds are off by an 1/8 of an inch.

They can do simple things yes but they can never do anything else.

I remember when I left school, in 1993. The job centre had little cards on boards & you had to stand there like a cunt reading them all. Most jobs were under £3 per hour, my first job was £2p/h over 3 shifts in a cnc machine shop.
Welders earned £10 per hour then, 25 years ago.
I earned more than £12.59 ten years ago, welding. Just phone up an agency, start tomorrow, expenses out the ass.
Welders earn more because it kills you. It maims & cripples you. Any cunt can weld who can ice 'happy birthday' into a cake.

OP.

I finished pre apprenticeship plumbing program at my college and because of this we had to learn welding too. So I got roughly 8 months of GMAW, Tic, Brazing experience.

What do you recommend applying to? I'm having difficulties getting interviews or bites from my applications to the most basic of welding or plumbing companies

Did some work for CAT back in the day, they robot welded the back actor arms. It took a man 4 hours to scrap it, the machine did it in a hour, with tolerable distortion. They had a guy stood beside it all day of course.
Brilliant tech, but it isn't practical unless there's no other real option.

By torche he probably means GTAW (tig)..

Tig? Mig? Stick?

What kind of welding exactly? I'm doing TIG and making good money but 500k is unheard of. Sounds like larp.

What's the difference between a Canadian welder and a regular one?

This is true for literally every field in Canada

Unless you go work north. You go work 1 or 2 years there, come back and have enough money to buy a house, cash.

Plus your apprenticeship hours are like doubled or tripled if you work up there.

Salaries are insane, cost of life also is but most of the time you're hosted by the company.

It's literally the biggest Canadian economic opportunity and almost nobody is picking up on it.

Rivets are much more aesthetic than welds. Your move.

ones not Chinese?

One makes 500k starting apparently...

I operate a robot welder. It is effective and impressive but still makes mistakes.

Sometimes the weld is slightly off. Sometimes there's holes/defects. Even after a robot does most of the work for me, I still need to repair it's results.

Canadians have a "red seal" program that touts a higher standard of practice then any other. This is mostly due to mandatory school periods that are heavily subsidized by tax payers and excessive drilling on safety practice and pointless dumbed down scientific theory.

Well the world is going to fall apart anyway and where we are going, there are no welders.

yeah but when the elite need to build giant boats/ships/rockets whatever they are going to need a shit load of welders like in that 2012 movie where they build an ark

I am sorry to tell you this but you are very wrong. By working up north you mean Alberta Oil rigs whose wages amount to nothing special anymore at all. I live in Calgary surrounded by oil field workers who are flown in and out of the rigs on a monthly basis and they struggle to afford their mortgages and have no retirement in sight. You are quoting oil boom prices in the 60s and are out of your mind. You are in for a hard wake up call.

It already is automated.
Look at the video, it's a program.
You can import solids with measures on them and all you have to do is add the curves and you send it to the machines. Still, because the production always varies its pointless to reprogram your bot for every single adjustment you'll have to do for every single one of your contracts. That's not how a machinist shop works.

It's already that way.
I agree that wielding could be automated to some extent, I can think of things like depth perception. Its within the realm of possibilities.
