It takes a lot more education, training, and skill to become a

Harry - give it up - please, you are making an ass of yourself.

Do you know where Harry went to college? Hell, it probably takes the
Navy
about 16 weeks to train one.

I suspect neither of you know what a steamfitter does. He doesn't
replace sewage traps.

I know what a steam/pipe fitter does.

It's a five year apprentice ship program - just like a freakin'
plumber.

The only difference is steam/high pressure welding.

Add another (minimum) 6 months for that skill and certification Tom. Add
other time for high pressure vessel training and you cannot compare a
plumber to a steam pipe fitter.

The training requirements and potential exposures are worlds apart.

Not to start an argument with you but you are way off base on this one.

Bull.
