>went into debt to attend culinary school
not all successful chefs are classically trained.

>>15887238
>>15887230
and further, plenty of chefs will mentor younger chefs and train them much to the same degree you'd get in culinary school, without you ever having to pay them for it, and in fact you'll often be paid for it.

>>15887230
I mean I’d take up the butcher trade over being a chef any day, but there are a lot of better jobs out there.

Cabinbro?

All butchers I know wear glasses and look like incels. Profession for sociopaths and losers

>>15887230
The butchers average salary in the US is $35k. Master butchers salary is $55k
Yeah,,, heh, I use duck duck go...
Probably better than a line cook. And if you like the stench of blood all day

That's an adequate gross income, but I'd hardly call it high.

>>15889010
Nice $25 n hr isn't bad at all if you're doing something you enjoy

Vast majority of chefs will never make that kind of money desu

>butcherchad

nice try paco but we know the jews gutted the meatpacking industry years ago

>>15887230
No meme why is a butcher a high paying union job? Most union jobs are skilled trades but I feel like any retard can be taught how to cut up a dead animal. Is the butcher's union historically significant and the globalists just haven't destroyed it yet?

>>15889162
Chefs and butchers both make shit money for doing a job any fresh across the border 80IQ mexican can do. What's your point?

>>15889475
It's because it's actually hard as fuck. Also see The Jungle.

>>15889475
The UFCW is shit. Their main fucking job is to keep the government from raiding illegals.

It is a skilled trade. Any retard can also be trained to run wires and piping. Cutting meat well is hard.

>Work in HAZMAT making $65K+ a year and don't have to deal with entitled customers
Tell me again why people should want to enter the food industry?

My dad is a butcher. Hes a good man that worked hard and always told me to go to college to avoid the trades.

>>15889776
>Cutting meat well is hard.
It's not hard and it's mostly done by 80IQ illegals from central america. If you like hanging out with sweaty spics who don't speak english then being a butcher is the job for you.

>>15889847
thats weird because ive been a butcher for 8 years and never worked with a single illegal. now i work with 2 fresh off the boat italians and 2 old white guys. maybe if you live in an area infested with illegal mexicans but that sounds like a problem with the trashy area you live in and not the job.

>>15889930
thats weird because it sounds like you're living in a fantasy world

>>15889930
Yeah in chicago I went to a couple butcher shops.
One butcher shop was only white old men. The other was hispanics. It was a mixed bag. The hispanic place was cheaper and had live poultry they would slaughter and process for you. The white people place had limited cuts and was expensive (but very delicious).

Both places the employees were very nice.

>>15887230
How to become a butcher?

>>15887230
>high paying job anywhere
15$ an hour

>>15887230
>can find a high paying job anywhere in the world
Not here in the UK - you can make a good living if you are the owner/butcher shop
>absolutely retarded grip and forearm strength
And arthritis in your hands and arms

Keep the money mate, I got better things to do.

>>15889010
I was making the same kind of money at my last job and I was literally on break for 90% of every shift.

>>15889010
I click around in microsoft teams to make the yellow "away" icon go away for 82k/yr

>>15892086
Based career twin lmao. I honestly think it would be awesome to work at a high end butcher shop though.

While I like my cushy white collar job, there's a lot of mental stress that comes along with it and lots of pressure to succeed. I just wanna cut meat, hang out with my bros, and take a smoke break here and there.

>>15891970
Where were you making $27+ an hour?

>>15892290
Same honestly, my ideal life would be 10-15 hrs of white collar IT work, 10-15 hrs of hands on blue collar shit and the rest of the week I'd fuck off to my hobbies

>>15892086

>>15892294
Less pay hourly, more hours per week. But I spent 50% of my day hanging out with my girlfriend and her husband or my friends, 40% chilling outside smoking, and 10% working. Was a warehouse job moving parts around with a little ride on vehicle thing. As proven since I quit, I wouldn't be doing shit else with my free time if I wasn't at work anyway, so the hours were a wash.

That's not how that meme works, retard.

>>15889776
Sure, but if you cut meat badly someone gets an uneven steak.
If someone wires your house badly someone could die, or have their house burnt down. Also there's an element of engineering in electrical installation i.e. calculation of current drop and correct wire guage for installation.
Hardly comparable to cutting a chunk of meat.

Based, fellow meatbro here. It's not the highest paying job in the world but it's pretty easy work and if you live in a cheap area you're basically royalty. For what it's worth, I've been doing it for close to 8 years now and I've never worked with an illegal immigrant. It's always white guys for the most part. One of my newest co workers is a blacker-than-black Nigerian and he's based as fuck.

That better not be in some meme currency like oz dollars.
