    As a person who comes from a family of electricians, I can tell you that the world needs more electricians and other skilled tradespeople. They can always find work, they make everything better, and they can point at the results of their labour and say "I helped make that".

  7. I need to follow more furries working in the skilled trades. Furries working in tech are well represented in the Fandom but not so much with the trades. Are you a furry working as an auto mechanic like me? Airplane mechanic, heavy machinery, machinist, electrician, plumber, construction, welder, or any other trade? Are you in a union? Boosts appreciated! 🐻‍❄👍

    But the numbers of old post offices are dwindling, despite the best efforts of historic preservationists and community leaders to save them.
