The rates for building trades that you're referring to are the 'billing' rates, company to company. The actual tradesmen make MUCH less than that - unless they're working for themselves. It is a tough life and not particularly steady work, but its very satisfying (more so than IT/IS/Telecom "geek" work). Fuck desk jobs, they all suck.
