Hi I honestly have to question if a lot of people, white or blue collar respect the product of the industry they work in, or are just waiting for payday 👍🐝🌞
I am or was a NICU Paramedic and did have to take a 3 year University course in Neonatology followed by a two year fellowship to become an ITT (Neonatal Intensive care Paramedic) member. And we were licensed to travel around the world, saving the lives of premature infants and transporting them alive to a tertiary care NICU, I'm proud of that. I'm surprised that Jason doesn't seem to know what his wife actually does each day at work. I suppose you can't be held responsible for not knowing what you don't know.
I went to college for business. I changed my opinion after I worked retail for 7 years burned out. I drove a truck for about 5 years loved it! But really always wanted to be a mechanic so I did that for 13 years loved it too Divorced and became a cable tech for 12 years. So with that all said I loved mechanics and technology side the best
I know it's currently fashionable to hate on colleges, but the US university system might be the most valuable and important institution in the world.
I heard the name Sean then Chad then James/Jimmy then Steve then Jared then Kyle for unnamed guy. Interesting.
is Jason going to be in season 5 I worked on a assembly line for 20 + years we had a time study with 4 years of collage he would ask us how to make thing go faster
Awsom podcast
Great opinion great discussion great video thanks Mike and Jason and dan and guest
I just remember my sister is working with high school kids to know what they want but you starting at 7th grade with the kids
You got to see what's happened over in India 3000 in a class One gets kicked out the 30,000 outside one steps in their front trying for your jobs
Best pod cast ever
Totally agree if you like what you are doing you will care and work harder
I started in college as a physics major. I graduated with a degree in economics. I was hired by IBM as a systems engineer. After 30 years, I took an early retirement and did data processing management consulting on my own all over the world. As with you guys, I had a broad education along with experience that allowed me to cash in on my own in my own business. I quit active consulting in 2000. I have never regretted the time spent in college. Since retirement I have refurbished two houses, I have been the general contractor on my own house and now that I am my 80's I actively vacation going to spots around the country where I can bicycle. When I'm not cycling I cook after getting an associates degree from our local community college. I read a little more than a book a week, and otherwise enjoy life. While I agree with the follow your dreams idea, sometimes you have to do dirty jobs because that is essential for the enterprise you work for to succeed. As I watch DP and others it becomes apparent to me that they are excellent planners and project managers. They are also excellent financial planners and, just as importantly, are very capable of rational thought and critical thinking. Which makes watching them interesting. Keep it up. This season of conversations has been interesting and I'm looking forward to next "podcast season".
College is alot like safety training in blue collar… I have 100's of hrs in safety training… But none of my previous safety training reciprocates with the next job… when they could jst hand most guys the safety test and we could pass it in 10 min… but they require you sit through hrs of training each time! Oh and each safety training course costs my company hundreds of dollars…
High school was a waste of time so I quit. I did multiple jobs until I learned how to weld. After 27 years of being self-employed I figure I should have quit school sooner. Keep Smilin. Happy New Year
Seriously!! No Matt?? Dirt Wannabe perfect is an erogant bastard!!
I agree on your thoughts on education. Living in New Zealand our education is free until you get to university witch I never attended and when I left school in 1973 people only went higher for education witch taught what was needed for their profession. Most of what I learnt at school was no use in later life and the piece of paper stating my level of schooling would of been more use as toilet paper. The best education I got was from the school of life and hard knocks.
I knew college wasn't for me and thankfully, I had parents that supported me in that. I could go tuition free as my Mother worked at the College but it didn't matter. I have not regreted it and retired early at 57 because I saved for the future. One funny story. My friends were going to take the SAT test and we got the day off school so I went as well. I did well in school but high math and science stuff was not an interest for me. As I took the test I got bored and when the Math and science sections were up, I just started started filling in the dots without even reading the questions. About a month later, I was called into the principal office and the guidance counseler and Principal were in there. They told me that it was about my SAT scores and I thought I was in trouble. They then informed me I scored in the upper 2% of all test scores in the state in math and science. I just kept it in even though I was laughing on the inside. I had SO many calls from recruiters from military and colleges but never told a single one what went down. LOL
Not trying to be a smartass here. I love your channel DP and have nothing but respect for you and your accomplishments. That said, there is a difference between college and a trade school.
Good info 👍
How many names does the guy setting between Mike and Jason?
Grate conversation; do what you want and makes you happy! I've worked as a carpenter most of my life; drove truck and school bus for a while. Have had some good jobs that I made money and some not so good that I didn't. I hope that you all have a good 2024!
If school taught like they did in our early history, you learned many things. They taught you to speak a foreign language. They taught you spelling and grammar. I know that a fourth grade spelling test that a college professor couldn't pass. Math was the same way. You can go look it up. Learning the constitution is very important. I never went to college. I learned by doing the work. I know that common sense is more important as education. Book smart and no common sense is useless.
JASON, WHAT KIND OF CAR WERE YOU GUYS IN THAT A PRIUS BLEW PAST YOU,LOLOL…..NEAT STORY, BUT I WOULDNT BE BRAGGING ON IT,LOL
THE ONLY CAR I KNOW THATS SLOWER THAN A PRIUS IS A VOLKSWAGON
Micke, I agree with what you are saying so much that is exactly what I tell my medical team, and that mentality is why my long-term staff have been with me for over 20 plus years.
If we as employers don't treat our employees with respect we don't go anywhere except if I don't treat them with respect I don't get out of bed.
That's why I treat my staff, with respect.
Sincerely!
R.S.V.

How about when you open the podcast you’re introduced who the two clowns are sitting there and why should we listen to them?
Jason is the worst part of any podcast… shut his mouth and it works better.
This is the absolute best podcast I’ve heard from you. It truly nails how our world is today. I personally went through this with my daughter. Her mother’s side pushed college to the point that she felt she had to go. Me on the other hand didn’t even graduate highschool and I learned more from hands on in the world. Thank God my daughter saw through the BS and went with her heart and is at a hands on learning job with a boss that’s teaching her how to run a business and will help her see how the real world is.
Not college fan either, there was just nothing there that interested me. I went the other way learned a skill, now I have my own business of over 20 years. If have a job/skill you enjoy, you never work a day in your life!
Yeah I’m couple years older I went to vo teck school like 6 months for machinist work was good at the work but not the fancy math so quit and became heavy equipment operator they don’t understand 2 plus 2 still equals 4 no matter how hard you make it lol so I’ll just keep getting rode hard and put away wet 😊
