For all the narrow minded people out there: plumbers do more than fix peoples toilets. Have you ever wondered how the water magically appears at your kitchen faucet? Or the sprinkler systems in buildings? Or even how the gas gets to your stove or fireplace? Fixing a toilet is just .05% of our trade. Smarten up people

i'm just entering my 6th year of architecture school (getting my master's this spring). and yeah, architects aren't paid shit. it's a myth everyone believes that they actually make money at what they do. but think of it this way -- while plumbers are paid well (think of all the coinage mario gets, even!), they are low on the totem pole. dirty, grungy work. architecture is MUCH more rewarding and you are complimented on your vision and dedication. ever hear someone say "you're a plumber? hurrah! go you!" not saying anything bad about plumbers, but pesonally if i was one, i'd have a miserable life. but yes, architects should be paid more for what we do.
