You speak out of ignorance. Good wielders take time to develop. I don't know about AC repairmen but a good welder who constantly places down good, solid and clean wielding beads time and time again is not a person you can just pump out in a mere matter of months. The skill of wielding consistently good wields time and time again takes more then a few months of on the job experience to really hone and develop. Which is significantly more skill then it takes to flip a burger or hold a sign protesting the fact that you choose burger flipping as a career choice, which it was never meant to be in the first place. Hence why minimum wage hikes are slap in the face of skilled and certified workers because eventually it erodes their purchasing power along with the rest of the middle-class.
Lol last time I checked it takes barely 9 months to do 90% of these programs, the ones that take the absolute longest take 2 years. The pass rate is absurdly high, the requirements to enter are zero...
Why should somebody who's only experience which differentiates them from being "unskilled" is a few thousand dollars to spend six months at one of these trade schools be respected any more than the guy at Home Depot?
