Default Re: Tiling careers unrealistic?

Many of the newbies will fall by the wayside,lack of comittment,lack of basic skill,lack of business acumin,inability to learn the correct way and like Darren says just plonking cards around wont cut it.In USA a plasterer trains for 3/5 yrs for qualification and is respected like lawyers and all other proffessions and command the same wages for their knowledge.The authorities in USA take a very dim view of rogue traders and heavy prison sentences are imposed,maybe we should take the same view to protect the paying customer and give true committed pro tilers the respect they deserve.I for one would endorse this principal,lets put it this way a rogue gas fitter can kill,a large format tile or section of wall tiles falling could kill.
