>>1162591This is true, I'm 45 and I'm starting to get too old to do my job and we aren't getting any younger folks in to replace us. In 20 years you better hope robots can sand and install hardwood floors, tile, carpet because there is nobody that can replace me getting trained. It was a really good paying job 20 years ago but my industry is competing with Russian immigrants that have 5 people living in a 1000 sq/ft house running under the table businesses
so we haven't been able to raise prices since 2005 at this point I'd be better off managing a McDonalds than killing myself doing construction.
