Heck ya I agree. Im actual make relatively little as the electrician since there is no minimum wage for electricians licensed or unlicensed or as an apprentice in AR. I just make due since I need my on the job training hours to get my license after 3 more years. I make a lot more (eventually) driving for Uber, running my lawn business, and all my other things and still have a great balance of time to hang out with friends since i only work Mon-Fri. Currently working for entertainment while most of my friends attend college classes so I can pay off my house, my car, and save up to start my electrical company, since the owner makes a fortune vs our hourly wages.
