We know this will inevitably result in the certain death of our race and way of life, yet we remain comfortable bastards and do nothing while feasting on supermarket groceries and entertaining ourselves.
We are citizens of Rome in the final days, knowing there is a problem but still enjoying the party none the less.
There were some good insights on a earlier poast (roofers), re status amongst tradies, but I found it lacking. Here is my assessment, BASED on 35+ years of bein in the trades (ranked low status to high):
cleaners/maids = you are retarded
materials delivery driver = not even worth talking to, total dimwit that 'used to work construction'
trash hauler = retarded drunk tweeker
landscaper/yard man = you are retarded and probably a beer addict
painter = semi-retarded and 95% certainty of alcoholism
drywall dude = a bit thick in the head, loves beer and pot, plays in a shitty classic rock band
wallpaper (only) dude = total homo, bitter, knows all the guys laugh about him, will rope some day
carpet (only) guy = idiot, closet fag
roofer = ex-con that is easily insulted by imaginary slights, loves vodka and meth
rain gutter installer = too pussy to be a roofer, constantly complains about the weather
siding guy = a failed carpenter that is always hung over, porn addict
plaster/stucco bro = tough, cranky, doesn't give a fuck bout nuthin 'cept gittin paid, alky
heavy equipment operator = brute, boozer, closet fag, installs and deletes Grindr app several times a day, wife-beater, several DUIs
pool builders = tough, understand basic plumbing, porn addicts and alkys
mason/brickie = dumb but funny and hard-working, honest, bro
framer = surprisingly smart, tough, but crude...has done time but now stays out of bars
flooring guy (all types except carpet) = average IQ, stopped drinking but vapes constantly
tiler = flooring guy with slightly higher IQ and stamina, obsessed with large-breasted women
window/door installer = always raging about something, usually the 'fuckin framers'
finish/trim carpenters = smart, loners, hate everyone on the jobsite ('umm could you turn the radio down?')
plumber = reeks of sewer but makes fat bank, fairly intelligent but drops F bombs constantly
electrician = smart, aloof, looks down on everyone, doesn't speak
AC/HVAC dude = got tired of being a plumber, now makes the same money but doesn't reek of sewage
kitchen installers = don't even look in their direction, you scum
decorators/designers = only see the homeowner, everyone else is invisible
Paying the government rent for land you "supposedly" own is ludicrous. We should have marched on Washington and destroyed this government centuries ago. Oh wait...
