I’m curious what percentage of lemmy are in the trades I.e have a trade job plumber electrician mechanic etc vs in the service industry working at a shop in retail vs a business position working from a computer all day in an office.
I’ll put five comments bellow.
Trade
Retail
Office

Unemployed
Up vote what category you fall into
I myself am a crane technician so I am in the trades.
Mods can remove if this isn’t allowed
Unemployed
Office.
Study
Office
Something with logistics and data for a big Swedish furniture store.
So retail/office hybrid?
Office
I just kinda assumed we’re all programmers here tbh. Maybe the occasional engineer too.
Manufacturing here.
That’s what I expected to see as the dominant job
I support 5 other humans in all of their eating, cleaning, logistic and clerical needs i’m not sure where this falls in your spectrum but if you consider it ‘unemployed’ i question the value of this poll.
Service industry.
TBF your job is harder than many others.
Just the laundry and dishes for a family of five is plenty. It never ends. Sigh
Nice try, Zuckerberg
None of the above, I think? I deal with boaty things. Computery stuff regarding survey boaty things, to be precise.
If I absolutely had to choose, I’d say internal support for a trade, although I think a trade would involve trade school.
Actually, on paper I’m considered office personnel, although my “office” is my bedroom, and 20% of the time I’m on the far side of the world.
Trade
I was hands on, travel-to-site, IT support for a long while. I loved it tbh.
Unemployed
Healthcare adjacent or service provider (massage therapist) not sure that fits anywhere
What is “childcare”? Because I’m working on my hands and knees half the time or holding up to ~15kg for hours a day.
