If electrical engineering is in STEM, why isn't plumbing? My friend is an electrician but it doesn't seem more complicated than plumbing.

Plumbing is easier because as humans we know gravity constantly. Therefore we relate the construction of gravity related devises with less brain activity than a subject like electricity in which we do not have a constant relationship with.
>If electrical engineering is in STEM, why isn't plumbing?
It is -- it's called Chemical Engineering.
>>9146839
This sounds like shit to me.
It's pretty simple, they just make you learn mountains of bullshit that you're never going to use
>>9146856
Is it? But plumbing is water?
>>9146870
Yeah, that's called being an academic.
>>9146826
No
plumbers deal with any kind of body that can be piped
I know a plumber. He makes a killing because he never abused drugs and actually understand the Bernoulli principle.
You can probably make a killing as a high iq plumber these days because your competition is full of brainlets who don't understand basic volume and pressure formulae.

>any kind of body that can be piped
Is it weird that this sentence made me strongly think of shit?
>>9146896
Is this common for the plumbers to do the drugs where you from?
>>9146948
>any kind of body that can be piped
I personally think about your mom
>>9146969
Bend the knee to my mom bitch. She love a hot piping.

Many blue collar tradesmen where I live go through a pretty hardcore cocaine and alcohol phase.

Whats so different between electrician and electric engineer
>>9148761
The difference between a cat and a lion.
Or a nurse and a doctor.
Or a waiter and a cook.
Or a construction worker vs an architect/civil engineer
can an electrician design a power grid and not electrocute themselves?
The answer is no
>>9148923
Someones abit sensitive.. daddy never payed for babbys plumber school?
>>9146891
so plumbers deal mostly with your mom?
>>9147133
if you look at the heroin epidemic in US suburbs, its not just the blue collar guys.
>>9148930
Well not true little fella.. Ya see, an electrical grid gets designed on paper.
>>9146826
because plumbing is not engineering, it's basic technical work with specific products. Electrical engineers don't typically work as electrician, those are separate. Neither plumber nor electrician are engineers either.
>>9146826
Electrical engineer is to electrician as civil engineer is to plumber. That is, the former is responsible for planning and technical design (which is typically considered more mentally demanding) and the latter is responsible for implementation, which often just requires a bit of training.
>>9146826
interventional cardiology isn't much different from plumbing either, why isn't plumbing part of medicine?
Former fire alarm technician here.
Most electricians on the job site ran and bent conduit. I, personally, had to tell the electricians at a bunch of job sites to stay away from the wiring. After a few weeks on the job, a few of my helpers were more qualified than the electricians our company hired.
I am NICET level 3 certified, OSHA certified and am a junior in uni for mechE.
Trust me, most electricians are unqualified to screw in a light bulb.
Fuck dude, I asked an electrician on a job site about Ohm's law and he said, and I quote, "Voltage is resistance over flow."
>>9146862
Good joke
>>9146896
If they use pot, I wouldn't consider a little pot before breakfast as "drug abuse"
too much and it follows your work no matter what.
The tile guys are on coke for sure. That job fucking sucks.
>>9148333
That was an unnecessarily hurtful thing to say.
>>9149765
This sounds like shit to me.
>>9146826
electrician isnt a fucking electrical engineer you fucking moronic faggot
