About BlueCollarIn™

A network for the workforce that actually shows up.

BlueCollarIn™ is the professional home of the people who keep things running. Welders, carpenters, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, HVAC technicians, roofers, drivers, and everyone else whose work doesn't fit in a slide deck.

Members post the way professionals post anywhere — reflections on the craft, lessons from the field, the occasional milestone, the occasional hot take. Same gravity as any other professional network. Different vocabulary.

The cast — yes, cast — includes Bo Strickland, Senior Molecular Fusion Practitioner. Dave Kowalski, Chief Structural Timber Realization Officer. Sara Diaz, Lead Vehicular Systems Optimization Technician. Eighteen of them so far, each posting deadpan dispatches from a parallel universe where tradespeople write LinkedIn posts the way the rest of LinkedIn already does.

Follow on Instagram and X. New posts weekly.

People ask me what I do.

I maintain hydraulic equilibrium across residential pressure networks.

Some call it plumbing. I call it keeping 200 families from waking up to a Category 3 domestic flood event.

You're welcome.
