Military

That feelio when also 24 neet also planning on becoming an electrician.
Already signed up for next year desu, good luck fellow neet.

Id rather not

Don't go to college, join a union and go through their apprenticeship program. It's free essentially, and they will place you in a high end low stress job.

Welding is a pretty good trade, don't see robots replacing them anytime soon

I'm switching from IT to plumbing. I learned the hard way how an unstable economy can throw your life to shit.

But as the plumber that let me bug him with a million questions said "everyone needs to shit."

So as long we keep Indian immigration down I'll always be able to survive.

Thanks Ill look into it how do you usally get started with a union

25 yo neet here bumping for interest

get a shit job to help pay for a trade school and learn mother fucker.

>how do you usally get started with a union


I would also like the answer to this question

Apply, knowing someone helps. Having a high iq helps.

I'm not in the shape for military by a massive margin. Anything else?

24y neet still studying bumping for programming sidebucks tips

Get into auto collision repair. Either estimator, repair technician, painter.

I am surprised nobody has mentioned this yet.

found a local union office going to go today

Just remember test before touch

If you' re American join the army. Never thought i would say that one week ago.

>Risk dying while repairing some guys doorbell
Literally why would you want to become an electrician?

Army in the US is fucking amazing if you get in young.

Guaranteed a paycheck for life. Free, albeit slow healthcare. Shit's amazing and I don't understand how veterans can be homeless.

People who know that there is a power switch to the house?

Try working on your grammar

Sparky, plumber, fitter and turner, welder, boiler maker list goes on.
Military is another choice but I suggest you join a gym for about a month prior to trying to join up (can also get a trade position with them)

You overestimate the requirements for every branch that isn't Coast Guard or Marine Corps.

go to a roulette wheel and put the rest of your money on 7, 35:1 easy money

They usually have dates where they accept applications. You'll end up there with hundreds, in some case thousands of other desperate job hunters (if you're in a big city) and you'll spend all day filling out applications, watching some videos, take some math tests. You'll probably spend most of the day there.

This places you at the back of a massive queue and basically you get called in order if you're ever needed. Basically, unless you have experience and some kind of references, you're not gonna get in. I hate to shit on your dreams but there's just too many people trying to get in because "its free" and everyone wants an apprenticeship, but its a huge number of applicants for very limited openings.

Best approach is to apply but go to school at the same time.

Commercial construction superintendent here. 25 years in the industry.

Electrician a good choice. Good wages, steady work, side jobs for cash. Save cash, start your own biz.

>Profit

Good call, electric user

don't know about the USA, but I am a CNC programmer and it's a terrible job. Some of the office chicks in the company make more cash than me...

I was a welder for 3 years. It's a shit job. It's hard on your body even with all of the proper safety equipment. People just take that shit job because it pays well.

join your local IBEW and they'll train you while you work, unions baby

bumping for interest. Also need tips on saving up for a car... I've never had one before, how much do i need to spend on something reliable? like 3k?

I'm a state-certified technical engineer, specialized in HVAC. If you want to sell people overprized system they most likely never use, get into HVAC.

You need to get a job first faggot. If it's a company contracted with one you'll be """"""""""""""asked"""""""""""" if you want to join it. You pretty much have to at that point.

I did a geology internship in college and was forced to join the LA Electrician Union for some reason

I am a fucking neet too and I wish I could join the army in my country. Luckily you have it very easy in US...

26 here

laid off last year. trying to finish university now.
need a good paying job to tie me over. I have my CDL but fuck I hate driving.

My ex drug addict brother with a record became an electrician and now makes over $30 and hour with room to move up

Makes me consider it as well.

Pharmacy tech

Kek

don't buy into the STEM meme. If you are a neet, you probaby hate interacting with people. STEM field might sounds like a autistic job field, but it is the opposite.

As an engineer, you will interact with a lot of different people daily. Discussing complicated shit, with people, who know everything better - or discussing with people who don't understand the difficulties at all.

An electrician has hardly to think about shit and might have a chill job. You learn your shit and then just sail smooth.

military, if you're not an out of shape lazy cuck

electrician is your best bet or a plumber or general handy man. You will never run out of work in a big city.

This.

>tfw valet at casino
>Work part time
>Minimum wage

But the tips are good enough to let me live a cozy life. Wouldn't be able to have a family, but I love this job because I'm basically still NEET. Part time work is the true redpill

...

Literally everything you said was a lie...

t. Former Marine

What was so bad about it weld bro?

Dad was an electrician, brother in law is an electrician.

Is a good job, pays well. Can be shit work at times.

Another good job I got exposed to is HVAC. Or commercial restaurant equipment repair.

Is accountancy still a stable career?

I graduated with a chemistry degree but job openings are shit and I don't want to do post-grad/lack of openings/other priorities. I also have an IT certification but I don't want to work with Pajeet in tech support.

Feel like I could ace accountancy

>I did a geology internship in college and was forced to join the LA Electrician Union for some reason
union dues

That will be the first job replaced by robots.

For trades call your local union office (for electricians its the IBEW), and check if any tradesman is looking for an apprentice. Generally there is always apprenticeships always open and you'll get paid while learning. The benefit of working with a union is you're practically guaranteed to be learning from a certified master tradesman, which will get you both a better education and better pay working for companies (generally anywhere from $5-15 more per hour depending on your location and skill level). It will be a LONG time before most trades get automated, so you will pretty much always have a job, too, and it is respectable work that does give you happiness and a purpose in life, which Mike Rowe actually talks about in a PragerU video that I can't find right now.

if you are actually a 24 year old neet you are WAY too stupid for one of the trades, it's too demanding (i'm a carpenter) get a job at like like taco johns, that was my first taxed job but i was 15

Do you need tradesmen? I am thinking about leaving this place behind and enjoying some Hickory45 lifestyle.

Is paying and learning a trade in college the same as getting an apprenticeship? Or do you have to get an apprenticeship even after learning in school?

A friend was a neet, who began studying math, when he was 24. He's one of the best students without much effort.

What a neet lacks, is real life experience in communicating with people. Nobody I know is too stupid for any trade.

You'll miss the hands on experience that comes with an apprenticeship.

*AI

Some investing firms already use AI's to invest for them because their algorithms bet better than humans.

What (((algorithms))) are you talking about? I am data analyst and get amazed when people throw this buzzword around.

Hey bro don't knock the military out yet. There a bunch of jobs in the army where they teach you a trade. You also start on the fast-track to leaving NEETdom.

Fuck off, jarhead.

Well I'll be honest I just regurgitate what others say on /biz/.

The "algorithms are already replacing humans" thing is already a meem.

The fumes are awful, even with proper ventilation. It's a lot of odd angles to bend at.
You will start on fire.

Wait, so accountancy and finance is shit? ;-;

HVAC

You better have a thick and strong neck.

A contractor of ours once tried to repair a broken gas line by welding on a patch. Walked like a charm, until he welded through the line and it exploded into his face. Those burn marks are remarkable. He's a chill dude anyhow.

Can confirm. Been doing it for 15. When I was an apprentice I made 35k a year. Now making close to 75k. But I am in heavy industry. So it will vary. But people get scared when the lights don't work. Plenty of cash to be had.

that dude is a fucking retard and is a danger to others.

>24 years old

Job Corps.

We have our own welding dude now. Not because the contractor was an idiot, but because he's nearing retirement age.

I'm on an electricians course right now. For me it's two years on a part time course and then either one year of in work assesment to be qualified for domestic work or two years of in work assessment to be qualified for both domestic and industrial work.

I have a fair few years ahead of me. I don't know if it's the same on your side of the ocean though.

What process did you use? Can't you wear a respirator?

CPA fag here.

Accountancy is one of the best kept secrets of the job markets. Probably because accountants are by nature conservative and frugal. We don't flaunt our shit. Most people think we do taxes at HR Block or some shit. Compare that to lawyers or IB or programmers or what not, they all flaunt their money.

And no its not going to be automated. People have been saying that for years and we just adapt. When calculators came out, turbo tax, quickbooks ect. Everybody predicted our doom.

The key to making it as an accountant is to start athe a public firm and get your CPA.

Do a little research. It's not easy to become one, but you don't have to be smart just dedicated.

>accountants will be replaced by calculators

>accountants will be replaced by TurboTax

>accountants will be replaced by quickbooks

Pls stop. You probably don't even know what an auditor does or what professional judgement is.

Fucking auditors. Those fuckers had me explain myself in front of the whole chief board just because I couldn't explain where a part worth two bucks went on a ten grand contract. Guess he got a raging hard-on by it.

do you need a 4 year degree to do this or can it be done on the cheap?

Probably pissed him off somehow.

Tip: Don't be a dick to auditors, we will be dick to you. Our job sucks and making us more miserable will backfire...hard.

If you already have your undergrad you can finish your MPA in about a year and a half to qualify to sit for the CPA.

I'd say a large portion of accountants have an undergrad is something entirely unrelated. I started in engineering.

But yes it's basically a 5 year program 4 years undergrad plus masters or 30 extra undergrad.

Like cocaine and magic.

Electrician
Smithing
Diesel mechanic
Proces Operator

Electrician and mechanic are actually challenging
Smithing is physically hard, but you will gain 1000 different skills, and if you are a creative person, you can design and construct whatever the fuck you want
Proces Operator lies in the middle, and is the pathway to comfy union jobs on large factories, power plants and other facilities controlled by SCADA and other proces managing programs

electro-mech tech here and can confirm. I'm a type of specialized electrician on the side of automation systems and the money is good.

My company sends me all over the US installing and programming automation systems. I get extra untaxed travel money when on the road on top of my normal wage and they pay for the flights, hotels, and travel time.

Would highly recommend getting into industrial electrical work or electro-mechanical if you want to travel for work. 3-5 years in these fields and you can be making 70-100k a year.

Just an idea here: but could you contact labour unions in the area and ask about getting into their field?

Because you contact them they will think you are on their side, and want to help you like a fellow leftist. You just have to hide your power level.

Unions typically accept applications to their training program during a specific window of time here in the US. That window is in the spring through mid summer as classes begin at the same time schools and universities start their fall terms.
