Yep, everyone wants to go to uni, learn everything in "theory", come out and walk into the top paying jobs. Doesn't happen like that anyone.
The trade education system has been falling apart for a long time, now its starting to bite back on skills shortage and hence our economy because we don't know how to build, fix or make stuff here anymore.

And everyone complains about cashed up tradies.

Franco, Gleemans are Ok I use them a lot when here.
