    One of the chillest jobs in my opinion. Even working for a pool company is pretty laid back

    I’ve been a welder/metal fabricator for 6 years, this career hasn’t been easy for me and I’ve had my ups and downs, I consider myself an entrepreneur at certain level, But it’s very hard start a welding/metal fabrication company, Every time I see a pool technician It makes me wanna switch careers and become my own boss as Pool cleaning guy, I don’t see anything wrong with that. I would appreciate any advice about starting in the pool cleaning industry, thanks so much!

      @@Ralph619 The starting rate depends on who you work with. I recommend you go to your local pool supply shop and look at there bulletin board. There are always pool companies looking for help. That's a good place to start.

    How much do they pay an hour ? Do your checks come out good ? I’m 19 about to be 20 years old and I’ve done nothing but fast food my whole life but recently I just got a job as a pool technician because I wanted to venture off into something that i could enjoy and make good money at the same time! I’m so nervous !

      Every company is different, so I can't tell you how much you'll get payed. I started cleaning pools at 19 going on 20 too. You'll be fine, good luck. Also it will be way better then working in fast food.
