also, aren't you saving anything?
I see no reason for you to take a plumber course, unless I'm missing something...

You didn't read ANYTHING that I said did you?...You quoted it but if you're asking that question, then you didn't READ it.

It's not like I need the job but if **knock on wood** something did happen that would kill my current income, I'm not trying to look in any want ads and compete with a bunch of other unskilled but highly educated workers....
So is anybody here a plumber and if so, how do you like the work?.....I won't even CONSIDER touching anything with human waste in it so I would probably either do new construction plumbing or do something like steamfitting or oil and gas related plumbing....

As for anybody else, if you're TRAINED AS A PLUMBER, please respond.
