Lineman straight MOGGING low test, patchy beard engineercels
BRB making doctor money as a tradie. It’s at the expense of work literallly being your life though. I work the absolute minimal amount of OT that I can but still clear 200k annually. Even if I worked no OT, I would still make more than every single engineer at the utility I work for. Really makes me lol @ student debtcels. There’s lineman in CA that have grossed in the 500s by July and then taken the rest of the year off, but it’s CA so fukk that. Low IQ tradie reps

They cannot hire an overbloated full-time crew all year round 24-hrs day.
Uncle was a lineman. Every monsoon season, he called it money maker season.

I see this bullchit lie repeated all the time. My stepdad was a lineman and I had to turn in his W2 when I was doing scholarship stuff for college. In 2003 he worked a chit ton of overtime and still wasn't even making $75k. The only way you're making doctor money is if you live like gypsy's traveling from job to job working 7 days a week without a real home to go back to but literally any tradie job makes insane money doing stuff like that

I'm a lineman most I ever made was 350k that was with 5100 hours of ,,,converted,, overtime hours.
Converted meaning 2500 of dubs or 3400 of 1.5, it was a mix of box so let's just say 3000 hours of overtime plus my regular 2080 of straight.
I was at work non stop, I couldn't count the number of callouts that I took
At a different utility now, I'm at 220k right now they are cutting back the ot as much as they can.
If I get under 200k I'm moving west.

Unless they're doing the work of a an entire employee and there's a dip in quality and productivity, it would be a bad business decision to hire a new person to tackle a few extra hours of work per week.

as an engineer, you put in your time and youre done. No excessive overtime, and there's no "on-call" because you're working bankers hours.

Doing actual engineering work, drafting and design and stamping drawings, doesn't come with big $$$ in my experience
However an engineer taking on a management role has much higher potential, I have a 2-year engineering tech diploma (associates degree in the US) and invoice at almost $100/hr right now plus have a company truck and some other perks

the old paradigm of studying hard in school is dead.
engineers are highly intelligent and worked extremely hard to get to their position.
linemen are basically blue collar workers who should be making $20/hr were it not for unions.

BRB the news reporting on the salary of a lineman is a lie lmfao. If your stepdad was making 75k as a lineman than he was a low test telecom lineman, probably working for Verizon or AT&T. It’s common knowledge that lineman in the electrical industry make bank, especially out west. Hourly rate in the 60s (or even 80s in CA) and anything after 40 is double time. Like I said, at the expense of working your life away. Like I also said, you don’t hef to be med. I work for a utility in the northwest and if I work absolutely no overtime (not possible) then I’m pushing 140k
