We asked Pros: What do you love about working in the trades?
I get to be my own boss and can schedule time off when I desire!
My favorite thing about the Trades is the ability to make $200K a year having never went to high school!
The trades are about service and helping your community, yes you get paid, but the satisfaction comes from solving a problem they have.
To know that I can pay my bills and live the lifestyle that I want is enough drive to get out of bed and put them boots on and get at it.
The awesome part is knowing the folks we serve will have clean, safe, and reliable heat.
My favorite part is taking care of an old lady's A/C when it is smoking hot outside.
