Seems to me.... that with all the emphasis placed on getting a college education....there are a lot less young people going into the trades.
The promise of higher income does not always come to fruition and then there is the student loans to pay off. I learned how to build a house from start to finish in less years than it takes to earn a bachelors degree.

My good friend is a plumber.....looking to hire an apprentice.
He isnt the easiest guy to work for....but will teach them the right way of doing things.
