My whole life I've been hearing roughnecks and loggers make bank but always stayed away because of the risk. Well now I don't care.
I looked on indeed and these people are paying 15 an hour for this stuff? That can't be right. If you know how to get into this shit, or any other dangerous job that doesn't cause cancer, let me know.

With logging you just need to call the local companies and ask. No one wants to work that hard anymore, so they’re always hiring. You’ll start off setting chokers. It’s exhausting and dangerous, and you’re going to be cold and wet, especially if you’re in the Pacific Northwest. But as long as you actually show up on time everyday and make a visible effort, you’ll get promoted pretty fast.
I’d recommend the sawmill over logging. You’ll get benefits so you can actually afford Jewmerican healthcare, better job security, and you’ll be out of the weather. The typical entry position is greenchain. Some people say it’s harder than choking, but again, just show up and make an effort and you’ll get promoted off of it.
