So, I have been working as a laborer for a weird company. My boss is a complete asshole, pays me $14 an hour in the bay area, and I have to work in very dangerous /illegal conditions (in a 8 X 6 hole with his backhoe shovel swinging around in the hole with me inside).
I really don't need the money, I was just working for experience to start my own company.
I kind of realized I really don't want to work in this niche, but I enjoy working outdoors, and with machinery (except for the noise).
My dad keeps telling me to get a job as a laborer in a well drilling company, but I am kind of scared of the noise, and I am tired of living in the boonies.
I was thinking crane rigger, but the bottom bitch in a crane company is a hard job to find.
What are some other construction niches that exist in cities?

that is a large company....
I am talking about extemely lucrative industries that cost around 500,000 or less to start up (basically buy a specialized truck and your in business).

document and photograph everything. if he continues to under pay you do this:
use a proxy to setup an email account in china or some shit tier country. Dont use your own name duh. Demand payment of 10000 shekels in monero to a wallet. If he doesn't pay, tell him that his firm will be reported to OSHA, MI6, DPRK and AYYLMAOS.
Profit

No,
OSHA says "It is the workers responsibility to stop working, and sit down; until the proper safety adjustments have been made." In which case you don't do the job, and he fires me, or it becomes very awkward... It is just me and him, so it is my word vs his....
OSHA basically just exists for union workers, and gives government workers excessive breaks / rights so their boss "the mean taxpayer" doesn't hurt their feelings.

I was looking for less "gypsy" jobs, and more specialized like well driller, rock scaler, horizontal driller type shit.

>scraper driver

Is it for roads, or building sites or what?

why would you do dangerous work for $14/hr when you could flip burgers for $15/hr?

to start a business in the same industry, and make $300 a day on a bad day.

I have a vac truck I can sell you in Sacramento for $50k. Hydroexcvation, sewer jetting, and environmental services.

You get your class B license and then you can rent yourself as the operator and the truck out for $250/hr. That includes traveling to the site and then to the dump after. Get your hazmat license and you can transport hazardous waste and charge more
I live in Oakland so if you're interested in the vac truck post your throw away email anon
