People push trades a lot but i hear a lot of complaints from friends how the "old guard" keeps new comers out to keep wages high. If you can break in it can be lucrative but i can't tell you how many of my younger friends end up going to other fields because of poor or non-existent on-boarding practices. God forbid if you're a woman too, I don't want to be woke but a lot of the people in trades aren't exactly egalitarians.
