  1. Yup. No sense getting all upset at a crappy job, makes life at home worse. Have a smile on while working. Do some dancing with the bois, some air guitar, make some jokes in the smoke pit and the day is a lot better....from doing 28 day shifts I can tell ya from first hand if you dont have fun at work you're gonna be a miserable depressed fart come day 7 and no ones gonna want to deal with ya.

  2.  @andreinvictoria  You have to be a specialist carpenter making custom items to make money probably. Most carpenters I know made 25 to 30 an hour under a company and probably equate to 30 plus an hour when doing side gigs .

  3. All based how u do it. Basically most trades that are mobile and solo can fetch 6 figures a year. A painter sandblaster can take in just as much as a welder if they go solo. U can also get trapped in shop for 30 some an hour . All where ya take yourself You can open a fab shop and potentially make millions I think welding is easy cause most people know a man with a rig.
