Don’t believe the “apprentices are exploited” myth. That’s from 1950s movies.
Modern apprenticeships are well-paid jobs with training attached. You earn, learn, and avoid debt.
Is it a fortune? No. Is it a fair, rising income that beats most student lives? Absolutely.
So next time someone says “apprentices don’t get paid much,” laugh. Loudly.
Then ask them how much their degree cost. The joke is on them.
Now go find that apprenticeship. Your wallet will thank you. And your boss might even buy you lunch.
