Then go be a friggin termite exterminator…that’s not a fun job, and I’m sure it’s more than a little dangerous due to the chemicals…between hazard pay and the fun of crawling through nasty basements (job description below), those guys are worth whatever they make (which incidently is around $13 an hour).
You know enough economics to know that there’s no free lunch, especially in a job like that.
“Working conditions depend on the job. A worker may spend one day working in the kitchen of a restaurant and the next day crawling through a dirty basement looking for rats’ nests. Usually workers do their job alone, without supervision. They work both indoors and outdoors. Pest control workers often have to carry and lift equipment and materials weighing as much as fifty pounds. They must be very careful when using poisons, because some pesticides are harmful to humans if inhaled or touched. Therefore, they may need to wear gloves, goggles, and respirators. They should have manual dexterity as well as some mechanical skill.”
