    Can't stick a piece of solid round steel in there instead? I've used big phillips screw drivers before if you don't mind kind of smashing the outer edges of the holes.

    You would be surprised, even skilled trades dont wanna pay well, or at least the starting pay is pretty low, pays barely more than jobs where you dont need to know anything to get started, I used to make $13 per hour as an EMT working for Hartson Ambulance service out of Encinitas, but that was back in the late 90s

    If you want to make some really good money look in to HVAC. Or even better yet an HVAC control systems (generally android based) company my buddy makes $60 per hour and he has been there 9 years but starting pay was still waaay better than other jobs out there, he worked for a company that made display booths before that, so he came in knowing virtually nothing. Might be worth looking into.
