Struggling Gen Z and millennial grads should consider turning their back on their degrees and retraining to become hospitality and trade workers, Randstad’s CEO warns.
Only way I can get a plumber or electrician in my town to anything besides new construction / fresh install is to ask my friend who runs a 60 home caretaking / property management company for a recommendation.
For plumbers they usually threaten to walk, unless you agree to let them just do a replacement for a new fixture (one was a 5 year old hot water tank…)
The only difference is if I get their number through my friend, I get to tell them, "if you walk, ill tell < friend’s property management company> and they’ll lose your number, and tell all their buisness contacts to do the same.
As someone working a trade, I hate to have to twist their arm, but its litterally the only way to get work done.

Yes! The good ones can pick and choose
