Set of trailers and a little camp and it's cold. Cold is an understatement. And we just like work for 14 straight days with almost no time off, really long days. And then we go back home and we get the heck out of here and go back down to the border where we live, like Vancouver, and we chill out or we work our other job. And they were young, right?
We weren't allowed to work in the office in Vancouver. They were working the steam shovel, digging out the tar sand in Yellowknife or whatever. Back to the income conversation here. Living remotely, we're having to chase jobs, living in different areas. That's correlation, right? But that's not causation? Or am I phrasing this right? You're absolutely correct.

No, it's like I can see how this system is unfair. I can see how you might want to work to change the system, but the system exists and you just have to play by the rules if you want to get most types of jobs, period.

It's just how it is. Yeah, you're not wrong. A bunch of office drone jobs and apologies to office drones don't need you to get a degree in psychology or anthropology to do them properly, but you need the degree to get your foot in the door. Otherwise, your resume goes out the window.

Oh yeah, I wanted to be a lawyer. No, I didn't, I had no idea. I didn't even know when I graduated college what I wanted to do. I only went to law school, and I think I've said this on the show before, I only went to law school because I didn't know what else to do with myself. The only job I could get was at Best Buy selling CDs next to a life-size cutout of Britney Spears.

And I was like, I have debt and I have loans and I got the same job as my friend's 17-year-old brother who's a sophomore in high school. This is horrible. So I was like, the solution is more education. And hey, law school actually worked out really well for a very short period of time.

Yeah, a good way to learn what you want to do for a career, man, you can figure that out by learning what you don't want to do. It's a good, decent sort of process of elimination. You can learn that by entering the workforce at 16, 17 years old. Like I knew I didn't want to work at a movie theater, but more specifically, I was like, I don't want to be on my feet all day. I want to think more.
