I can never move to Europe (West or scandanvia) or any better country cause assholes in control always want degrees and people who are good at math.

Not only that but I feel so inferior as an American. Everyday, I wish this country had never existed with how rotten and horrific it is. I sometimes think of praying to god (I dont care if you're an edgelord atheist, don't judge) for stuff like this or to get better at least. The only thing the US does right is its treatment of violent monsters in prisons, and even then, the system is still as shitty as the country itself.

I can't even call myself a a christian for how badly they ruined it for us.

I'm a completely useless person so I know I dont have a chance. I am someone who only has an interest in the arts fields with ADHD. But I am interested in coding. I constantly wonder why and wish that I was born abroad instead instead of suffering in a pathetic, gross cesspit of a country. And I'm already aware of all the problems in other countries, yet I constantly wish that I was born there instead. It makes me feel so bad when I hear someone is not american cause I feel even more isolated and I have no idea why.

Even the process of moving abroad makes it seem not worth it to me so I sometimes get stuck. I just wish i was never born. I feel so inferior.

I am an absolute shite welder, but it's mostly muscle memory, and flame control as far as I can tell. That being said, I have only ever welded iron and steel. Never touched copper or anything expensive. And I don't try to weld anything that is critical, so I don't get to do it much

Edit: Oh, I see what your asking. No those guys were saying their job at Cybo was easy, and it was. We paid them $75,000 a year to mostly sit on their asses shooting the shit with each other. They only had to inspect a weld about once or twice a day.
