need help with addig subtracting fraction inplumbing

Here I am, living a life of peonage while at the same time observing others who have everything I could only dream of having.
I’m sick of being jealous of others’ fortunes, be they mild or grand. It’s just so frustrating and condescending seeing others enjoy life with things I wished I had for myself from video games to love and attention.
But you wanna know what’s really painful? The fact that I work so hard doing things that should really pay a lot (plumbing, electrical, home improvement) only to get little or nothing while others get so much for doing much less.
People say, ‘life’s not fair’ or ‘everything people give you is a blessing, the rest have to be earned’. But why should I accept the fact that I get nothing for what I TRY to earn while others get handed the stuff they want? I just can’t live life feeling like Frank Grimes from the Simpsons all the time.
Why do I deserve less?

I was wondering If anyone knew any good websites I could take a look at or some books I could read (preferably websites so I don’t have to pay) so that I can learn a few trades. Right now I work as an Electrician, and I want to pick up some plumbing, carpentry, masonry, drywalling, painting, and any other useful trades. I plan on being an electrician or at least something related to that, but I really want to learn other things as well, I think I may ends up turning to more of a handyman career. I love fixing stuff and making things work, its something I enjoy a lot, so I want to get good at everything. Does anyone know of any good resources I can use? (oh and by the way, I don’t want to take any classes or anything, just websites or books I can read) Thanks a bunch in advance!

Hi,
I want to specialize in a trade such as bricklaying but would like to know first if there are schools where they actually teach you. I know one can learn something by directly working on the field but that could take a few years as a laborer first.

Im not talking about computer hardware though, I’m talking about hardware as in hammers, fasteners, basic eletrical things, plumbing, etc. Thanks.

I am a homeowner and would like to improve my carpentry/construction skills. I am a teacher and have the summers off, which I would like to spend improving my house. This isn’t just to save money; I really want to learn how to do it.
I once converted a garage into a sculpture studio, so I have some skills/successes (can build a wall, install new windows and doors, wiring, put in a floor) and some failures (leaking skylights). I’ve also put in fences, built bookshelves and done some plumbing. Plus sculpture!
I know I could take classes at a tech school, but I’m looking for other hands-on ideas where I could learn from someone. Books are great but I need to SEE it and be able to ask questions. Though I have the summers off, they are short and I have young kids. I’d like to work a bit for someone for free in exchange for the teaching - is that feasible? I’m not incompetant, but I am female
