AE's exhaustive list of tradie jobs, by status

submitted by Anus_Expander to whatever 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:30:45 ago (+18/-0)     (whatever)

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

architect = GOD (edit: also full-blown homos)

I bet you are a wallpaper guy

I was a roofer. Can confirm this list is 100% correct

[ - ] big_fat_dangus 0 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:44:40 ago (+0/-0)

I've learned from my landscaper's work that a zero turn is great for a big flat back yard, terrible for a smaller sloped front yard. At least he's cheap.

[ - ] HeyJames 3 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:10:36 ago (+3/-0)

You pay someone to mow your lawn lmao that's like 15 minutes of work

[ - ] big_fat_dangus 1 point 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 16:16:37 ago (+1/-0)

Maybe if you have a postage stamp lawn. Not for mine.

[ - ] ButtToucha9000 1 point 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:48:34 ago (+1/-0)

Zero turns TEAR UP your lawn. They are a gimmick

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 0 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:51:24 ago (+0/-0)

he's cheap for a reason

[ - ] ButtToucha9000 3 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:45:48 ago (+3/-0)

Don't you do.... all of these jobs?

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 3 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:47:44 ago (+3/-0)

NO CARPET OR WALLPAPER!!

cleaners/maids- you talk shit but construction cleanup used to be retarded good under the table money.

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 2 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:48:13 ago (+2/-0)

This is a STATUS post, Consuela

[ - ] Gowithit 2 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 14:49:24 ago (+3/-1)

man, and then you get with the floor guy and make bank. Fuck status.

[ - ] HeyJames 3 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:09:34 ago (+3/-0)

This is a residential townie trade list. Wait until you discover the world of mining and industrial. Everything you listed is nigger tier in comparison. Everyone on a mining, processing plant, or oilfield job site would literally skull fuck you and anyone on that list.

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 2 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:32:32 ago (+2/-0)

Certainly, but I only have home tradie experience = normie tier

[ - ] Ragnar 2 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 17:09:44 ago (+2/-0)

Mate, oilfield jobs are tough and testing

[ - ] Her0n 0 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 20:50:58 ago (+0/-0)

Yeah I've worked with coal miners who left due to the nigger behavior.

Heard a faggot mushroom stamped some other newfag on his first day in the shower.

I would snap

AC/HVAC gotta climb up in those hot ass attics during summer.

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 2 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:36:08 ago (+2/-0)

They are used to it, and charge plumber-tier rates, because they can.

[ - ] bonghits4jeebus 0 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 23:37:19 ago (+0/-0)

Seems like the electrician is the one you have to bribe to come over. You don't even have to worry about the rate cuz they'll just say "600 bucks to put that outlet in," and if they can get that done in an hour, that's fine.

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 0 points 9 monthsSep 18, 2024 14:31:44 ago (+0/-0)

Most electrical stuff aint an emergency, people can shop around. If your terlet is backed up, or a burst water pipe is soaking your house, you WILL pay the plumber anything he wants.

[ - ] bonghits4jeebus 0 points 9 monthsSep 19, 2024 12:24:09 ago (+0/-0)

Burst pipes is bad, but I might rather be without water than electricity. I'm not sure as the water has only been off for 1 day, while I've had numerous days of power outage (from the utility).

If my shit were out and they would fix it, I would pay either of them a good emergency rate.

[ - ] Gowithit 0 points 9 monthsSep 19, 2024 12:49:34 ago (+0/-0)

water over power.

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 0 points 9 monthsSep 19, 2024 14:12:26 ago (+0/-0)

If your power goes out, only the electric company can help, unless something happened after the meter

[ - ] Stonkmar 1 point 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:15:47 ago (+1/-0)

Out of this list, who's the most needed in the indrustry now and who's least needed?
Or, what's the most saturated trade?

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 4 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:35:29 ago (+4/-0)

Where I live, a good AC/HVAC guy that actually answers the phone and shows up on time can work around the clock for great money. Cleaners are always being sought, because many think they can handle but quit after a week. Most saturated: carpenters and painters. Go to HVAC school, get a cert, buy a truck and tools, come to NW coastal FL. Beaners don't do that shit, it's all White bros.

Thanks for the info

[ - ] Her0n 1 point 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 20:59:23 ago (+1/-0)

I own an automation/electrical engineering business. I always need electricians and electronic controls techs.

[ - ] CRKT_M16Z 1 point 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:28:26 ago (+1/-0)

The problem with where I live is that you can't get about 15 of these jobs if you're not a spic beaner invader. They only hire their own.

[ - ] Anus_Expander [op] 3 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 15:52:27 ago (+3/-0)

I have been self-employed for 30+ years, and do well on my own.

[ - ] DoughGoy 1 point 9 monthsSep 18, 2024 01:41:14 ago (+1/-0)

I applied to be a scaffold builder as an 18 year old. They were going to hire me on the spot, but I looked around and noticed I was the only non-brown person in the whole building, and turned it down. Also paid 3 dollars over minimum wage.

[ - ] RMGoetbbels 9 points 9 monthsSep 17, 2024 16:34:40 ago (+9/-0)

Little known fact- all architects are full blown homos.

Shame they aren't identifiable by driving their Saab anymore.

Every one I met fucking sure seems to be.

It is.

You forgot soffit guys who just kind of mumble to themselves and smell like mildew

I was hoping to see welder. But I suppose they don't fit in theme of building houses.

As a man who started out as an electrician I can say this is completely accurate.

You can't be an idiot and wire houses safely. I'm looking at every carpenter who thinks wiring a three way switch is too difficult, but tries anyway. I had too much to fix already, with you dipshits ramming nails into my wires, let alone spend time fixing your wiring fuck ups.

HVAC guys cry about spacing but still just HAVE to smash my romex because they "didn't see the wires bro!"

Plumbers are fine by me, I don't try to secure my wiring on their piping though.

Drywall fags, I hate you, there's no reason for you to nail my wires when they aren't even in your way to begin. Drive your nails straight you fucking faggots.

Architects, you designs don't accommodate for the retardation of the average construction crew, learn to anticipate it for once in your miserable lives.

Roofers, stay the fuck away from my tools, my truck, and my employees. I don't care if you just got out last week, I'll send your ass right back to all the buttfucking you can dream of if you molest my gear.

Yes, we look down on all of you because we can party but still stay sober for the jobsite. Yes, we can make it look accidental if you want to test our limits. We don't come from prison because we cover our tracks.

Fuck you Anus, you know the entire crew too well, bastard.

I just learned that an old friend of mine is literally sustaining himself from medical drug trials. He is being paid to consume developmental pharmaceuticals.

This is a man who does not produce or labor. He is not trading his time for money. He is selling his body.

This, to me, is perhaps the lowest position a man can find himself in above begging and welfare.

you are wrong about tilers. They are mostly greedy and low IQ. I met one who was a flat earther pothead. Loads are indian because they love hiring cheap guys to train under them and then getting themselves replaced. basically low IQ schizos who are often accidentally based. they are definitly porn addicts who like big tit women but big titty liking is correlated to lower IQ

besides that you missed engineers who think they are God and are smart but are just too greedy to be useful or productive. only huge corporations or government hire them because most of the time they charge 5x the price for something someone else will and does better ( probably why they are barely in industry)

architects used to be above them for uncommonness, why not get the guy doing the maths for the building to do the drawings too isn't a big stretch

A lot of architect/engineer stuff is now done by software

true and all engineering maths. It is a system built on regulations to keep people in jobs so that they can pay debts and be good passified wageslave insulation between the real work and the jew
