I completely agree.
By certification, I'm in the world of technology-trades. However, I just started getting my feet wet in the business world as well, and I've decided to jump ship within the next year or so.
It really depends on the trade. A plumber is not going to make as much as a process operator, unless he owns his own company, but that's also trailing off into business.
