A doctor was complaining to his plumber about the outrageous bill.
He said "I don't make that kind of money, and I'm a doctor!"
 
The plumber replied "Neither did I, back when I was a doctor."

Yup, entering the trades, you will always be employable if you have a good work ethic...
 
With WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Oppportunity Act), these trainings are free - of - cost to the trainee. And recently, "The SNAP to Success" program is providing these free trainings to those who are receiving SNAP (food stamp benefits), it is a good program that gets folks up and running with a trades career...
 
It is hard work, but if you hustle you can make a very good life for yourself...
 
https://www.dhs.state.il.us/page.aspx?item=93875
 
Overview
Mission: The SNAP to Success program aims to build upon Illinois Department of Human Service's current SNAP Employment & Training (E&T) program by leveraging a new federal funding stream to partner with new providers and ultimately help thousands of additional SNAP participants find employment, advance in their careers, and achieve self-sufficiency.
 
The Basics: What is SNAP Employment & Training (E&T)?
E&T programs help SNAP participants achieve employment and self-sufficiency through education, skills training, supportive services, and employment.
Services and training are currently funded by the State and federal government, but funding can come from a variety of other sources as well.
SNAP E&T's flexibility allows integration with existing workforce programs (e.g., WIOA).
 
SNAP E&T services are a collaborative effort between IDHS, the federal government, and our provider partners.
The Basics: E&T Program Variety
What are the types of allowable services?
 
Job training
Job search and job search training (e.g., job clubs, resume workshops)
Work placements (on-the-job training, apprenticeships)
Job retention services
Education (basic education, ESL, vocational education)
 
Who can provide services?
 
State SNAP administering agency (IDHS)
State labor agencies (IDES, IDCEO)
WIOA service providers
Community and technical colleges
Community-based organizations
Employers..."

They and other tradesmen make so much money that I never understand
why they keep working until or beyond the age of retirement. What's
the point of becoming rich if you can't move to the Bahamas an lay in
a hammock at some point?

For as much as Bruce whines about America you'd

When Obama was president, the Republicans cried for 8 years and tried
to sabotage everything he wanted to do. That's how 2 party systems
tend to work. In the US extremely so.

Thanks! I couldn't remember the actual dosage of his miracle elixir.
 
I just pity the poor unsuspecting attractive woman who might also be
in this class. He'll latch onto to her like a leech and think he's
hit the jackpot. She'll wonder why she ever agreed to the nursing job.

It does change the flavor some. You can also try putting peppers on
a sheet pan under the broiler for a few minutes on each side, just
until the skin blisters, then into a paper bag with a damp paper
towel for a while till cool. Then peel them.

I imagine there are more changes to come in the next year. People
change habits and adapt to a new reality, whatever that may be.
 
How many will continue to cook instead of heading back to the
restaurants? Not a good time to be in any retail or food business.

Never was a problem here. My daughter had a pet anole in a cage
and
always bought crickets to feed it.
 
One day she found a praying mantis outside and adopted it.
It pretty much stayed on top of her bedroom curtain.
Every day or two, she would feed it a cricket.
Stupid crickets would immediately start climbing up the
curtain. The preying mantis would immediately lean over
and watch it climb up then eat it when it got in range.
Interesting to watch.

Multivitamins are often unnecessary for people that eat a good
balanced meal. That said, a little won't hurt in case you miss
something. I take 1/2 a multivitamin pretty much each day.
 
Iron in them are good for women but is not good for men. Older
mens vitamins skip the iron.
 
Vitamin D comes from the sun naturally..Get out once in awhile.

A couple months ago I came across an old bottle of Vitamin B12, which I
was supposed to be taking once in a while. To make up for not having
any for a while I popped 3 or 4 of them. Later that day was was alarmed
to notice that my urine was extremely bright yellow. I was alarmed and
immediately consulted Dr. Google. It turns out that neon yellow urine
is the result of too much Vitamin B12,
