    I know. It's insane. I have a side business restoring headlights, but all the dealers i try to sell my services to have someone who can't even speak english doing there lights for $15 a pair. I cannot compete with this whatsoever. I do get some private clients. I usually charge $100 with 5 year warranty which is 5 times more then other people offer. But when i do get business i usually get a 50% tip All I can do is pray

    my job is to pretty much be the bitch boy at a factory. whatever they need something im the guy who gets the random job. i love it though because there’s nothing better than walking into work and never knowing what your going to spend the day doing. my boss came up to me one day and asked me if i knew construction. i told him a little bit and he handed me a home depot credit card and told me to build a locker room, if i needed i could rent a truck. no other instruction. no dimensions, budget, color, nothing. i wasnt even told where he wanted me to build it. just complete freedom to do what i wanted as long as he had a locker room built. this type of situation happens at least once or twice a week. its pretty cool knowing they trust me so much.

    plus 72hrs a week, 40 at $9.25 reg time + 32 at time and a half. im happy with my pay check lol.

    Hold on. Let me get this straight, assuming I am reading this right. Welders in Australia make over a half million dollars a year on average?
