WTF, why give up the drywall job? You could be making REAL money, learning a VERY valuable trade, and had your Friday nights to boot!

I agree. There is more to doing drywall well than slinging burgers. It would be a worthwhile experience that could be used later in life.

But isn't there more customer service based interaction as like a cashier in a fast food joint?

And that's a good thing?

you should stick to hanging rock...better to learn a skill/trade than fast food...

but at least you are working...:thumbsup:

i know someone who is a dry wall expert. He makes GOOD money. he works for a company but on the side he does work on his own as well. He has his day job working for a boss, but in his spare time, he does work on his own, in order to get the extra work, which is money ALL in his pocket, he has to interact with the person that wants the job done. so if you want your customer interaction, you've got it right there. you just have to make sure you know what you are talking about and can do it quick.

he pulls in close to 90k a year, but he works very hard, and u doubt a new comer like you will earn that kind of cash, as least not for a WHILE.

drywall > fastfood^2

Not only that, but construction type jobs are much more fun as well. Last summer I did some renovation (workign on platforms outside apartment buildings) and the time used to pass by quickly and the work was interesting.

Of course, this summer I'll be sitting in a comfy chair inside a AC'ed building. Not having to sweat like a pig 8hrs/day under a scorching hot sun will be a new and welcome experience for me 😉
