Too bad nobody's willing to pay a decent wage for it.

    $19 an hour for an industry in a worker shortage, huh.

    Good luck with that.

    On a related note, I was thinking about gunsmithing when I was younger which has similar numbers in America and they make even less while also having to deal with gun people so I guess it could be worse.

    I'm perfectly capable of repairing bicycles, and I wouldn't mind having a job.

    Too bad there's far more to the requirements than that.

    I'm 60, and I live in the U.S. That's the rub.

    I dunno.. this just sounds like AI wanting us to get used to repairing the machines that will one day subjugate us

    oh fuck - you made me just realize that maybe AI did already take over, and this is its weird fetish, so it's driving us to it.

    The right wingers are right, global warming IS made up, but it's made up by AI which is doing it to get rid of cars so it can do its equivalent of masturbating while watching us fix bikes.
