Seriously question.. What are we doing?

So seriously I’m getting tired of seeing people working for scraps in this industry. Trash benefits, horrible wages, clock held over your head all day and being required to keep up with changing technology every year and from what I see people are working for maybe 3 or 4 dollars more per hour then before inflation… Fortunately I got out of this rut and found my way, doing this work for myself but that doesn’t change the fact that if things don’t work out for me I’m back at square one. We need to seriously step up, shops charging 180/hr and complaining about paying a guy more than 30/hr, claiming high rent etc… Sorry it’s not our fault you made a bad business decision by renting and not buying.. We need to seriously wake up, leave your job go find a new one, retell co workers what you make. SPEAK UP!! Half of the problem is these old guys who have been working for chump change at the same place for 30 years so they won’t pay a “new guy” more then what that old guy is making because he will have a fit but he is the one who kept his mouth shut for 30 years. We need to come together and make some serious change because this is getting insane. 9/10 will agree with me but there is always that 1 who sticks up for this trash career because he is in a good spot but doesn’t realize if he lost that job or business closed he would be back to square one again. The only upside is job security, of course we can find a job anywhere… But it’s all trash jobs… The only change I see happening if we don’t do something is when so many people leave the industry the world will have trouble keeping up so they will have no choice but to pay up. Name your price if you will? But why does it have to be this way? Why did we get to this point? What can we do to make change? If I’m missing something please tell me but I been in this business a long time and talked to a lot of people and 99% hate this and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Yes of course, “if you don’t like it leave” well now people are starting to when you can make as much as a Union apprentice in another trade starting out for the price they want to pay you to be a skilled tech. It’s 2025 let’s come together and shake this up!! If you agree drop your opinions below and feel free to share this as we need to have everyone on the same page or nothing will change… And nothing has changed but all we can do is try!
