Uh huh. You really are clueless about me aren't you.
I don't see you welding tubes and pipes at a pharma lab or nuclear power
plant, or working as a manufacturing plant electrician, or as a
bricklayer knowing the chemistry necessary to mix up and apply various
high strength or high or low temp mortars, or the strength to fling 40
pound concrete block all day, or maintaining and repairing railroad
diesel-electric powerplants, or even how to mitigate hazardous materials.
It's simple if you are literate enough to read the instructions.
5 Years apprenticeship to mix mortar. Really?
I can testify to the fact that carrying concrete blocks all day does not require a lick of training
or specialized skill. Buying a bag of mortar and following the mixing directions doesn't take a lot
of skill either, although a little knowledge of the English language may be helpful.
You would certainly be the "go to" guy for jobs requiring no useful
skills, but mixing a bag of sakcrete was not what I was describing. And,
actually, carrying or lifting 40 to 50 pound block all day long does
require some training so that you don't injure yourself or others. But,
as I said previously, you don't have the skills to qualify as a hod
carrier.
