Honestly, just lie. That’s what I did, and then I suddenly had a career and didn’t need to lie anymore.

Construction management, a very select degree. Excellent job security, good pay, good variety of different things you can do. I have companies reaching out to me to come work for them. If you are in the market for a degree change I would highly recommend construction management.

Indeed it is, you can just sit in an office and run estimates and schedules all day or you can actually be in the field getting dirty it is completely up to you. You can switch between the two every few years if you wish as well. I am currently working my second internship making 25 an hour with a 1000 a month housing allowance (In a high industry area). If you can still change majors I would highly recommend

places put out fake hiring adds to always make it look like they are hiring all the time but they never actually are. companies do this all the damn time. its annoying as shit. i hate that its a thing. it gives everyone looking for jobs false information. its false advertising and idk why its allowed. it should be illegal

okay yea no shit ur having an easy time while having a degree in a trade specific area that needs a lot of work. you could literally paint a house, help build a roof, be someones personal contractor, or do literally anything that needs fixing on a building and easily make bank.

Pick up the paint brush then! Lots of opportunities in the trade industry. Even if you hate the trades most trade jobs lead to an office position.

thats a mans job. im not a man. you dont see a lot of women painting houses or getting up on roofs. this is why men have it so much better off than women. trades are for men.

the office positions are for women, but thats not what trade jobs are meant to be. especially with construction, if you wanna make bank, the money is in actually doing the trade. not sitting at a desk. dont get me wrong, some desk jobs can make a lot, but you make a lot more out in the field doing the grunt work.

I’ve worked with multiple women in different trades growing up and let me tell you most of them were complete badasses and seemed to do better than most men I’ve worked with, more critical on detail. Seems a bit ignorant to say a woman can’t work a trade. There is more to trades then just grunt work, multiple office positions including estimators, project managers, the key is getting specialized which most majors now a days fail to do

Women can absolutely do any job they set out to. That said men have certain advantages when doing “grunt work” (things like height muscle, learning opportunities for male dominated things) that absolutely give a major bias to employers, whether they realize it or not. And that’s not unfair of them to pick the person better suited for a job like heavy lifting w/o machinery either
