No, I expected things to work the way you think it should and I don't have a background in the trades. It's just bonkers how bad the industry training is.

I suspect (but definitely do not know) that it stems from a "Why pay to train them when someone else (or maybe they, themselves) will do it for us?" mentality that also just so happens to result in it being hard as fuck to find entry-level work.
