My problem is with people who could go further than they currently are and choose not to because they're too lazy, etc.

My dad was easily the smartest man I've ever met. He was a carpenter - he designed and installed cabinets for a living. He never pursued higher education, and he was never happy with being "just a carpenter". IMO, a lot of people sell themselves short in terms of their intelligence when they go into tradeswork because they get caught up in the money and don't push themselves toward higher achievements.

you do know that some people actually prefer to do shit like construction. As long as they are happy id hardly call it selling themselves short.

P.S my dad does the same thing haha

^ That's what I mean though. Some people love it, and that's great. Other people do it because the money is so good but they're miserable and should be doing something they are happy doing!

This entire thread is stupid. People don't fit into pigeonholes like we wish they would (because it would make our categorization of them easier, and because we like to think of ourselves as the most unique snowflake of them all).

I felt like your post & way you said it was bashing one type of guy just because you don't prefer that. to which I object.

Handing out karma is basically stating MY opinion on your opinion. (agree/ disagree)

it's all the same and its just a red dot.

certainly not meant for any hard feelings, we all have an opinion here.

and its not like I haven't given you plenty of good karma in the past.

What women are more attractive too is one thing, but lets not go on a tangent on the worth of a construction worker.

Trades are VERY valuable skills that a lot of ppl cant master. Yes there are some guys who think "nice 16hr sign me up", but when it comes to the trades industry there are lots of places you can go if your dedicated and determined to master your skill. The more experince and skill you have the higher your pay. Lazy nimrod types dont get that far. Not to mention if you understand business well enough you could eventually own your own company and earn even more.

Trades have a high archy with skill and experince like jobs that compete with education on paper.

^ I don't know why you bother to add little comments at the end of all your points.

They're not funny. YOU'RE NOT FUNNY.

They actually annoy me to the point where I have to post.

Besides, with me being impartial and all it means that I don't quite care that much.
