lowest quote I got to replace toilet and faucet in the kitchen (my parts, just installation) - $895 (5 quotes total). market for trades is exploding and will grow larger and larger as gen alpha and beyond knows what screwdriver is as much as they know what rotary phone is (they dont how to use either)

Are you kidding? Plumber seem really in demand. Finding a conpetent plumber with reasonable pricing is difficult where im at

Not saying market can't expand at all. Prices can go down, waiting times can go down, but still people only need that many faucets installed.

If we seriously expect whits collar jobs not be a thing anymore, then I am not seeing trades having nearly enough capacity to absorb all the released workforce

Surely AI has to take a shit eventually. What's all this racket about water usage?
