looking forward to hearing about the process for joining brother that's what stage I'm at. I appreciate your content man, hoping to move out to maryland with my Fiance and start my apprenticeship out there with the United Association Apprentice program. My fiance and I are thinking of starting a family I'm 23 and the pay sounds great I need to provide homie it's my obligation.
That situation sound almost like mine! I got married at 21 I'm now starting my career in the union at 25 (I have a 1 year old) I'm pulling through this program so my family can live comfortably, and you are right! It is our obligation. I hope it all works out for you brother🙏
If you are joining a pipefitter apprenticeship day 1 bring a tape measure, a pocket level, a pen, a sharpie, soapstone, and a notepad. They will appreciate it
Overtime is offered when it's really needed , depends on the length of the job, usually when you need to meet and finish a job by a specific date.. I'm 3 months in, and I haven't had any issues with lay off, That's one of the things I questioned alot before joining, it really had me second guessing everything.. BUT there were so much more pros then cons.. I thought to myself "I could either stay in this warehouse job, or actually go learn a Valuable skill in the trades" lay offs will happen, depending on how busy your area is, but I just kinda hammered in my head, that its just part of the gig, when you get hired, work hard, get your name out there and you'll always be employed, and years from now you'll laugh at the fact you even second guessed yourself!

Can i join a union without going to the apprenticeship program ive been welding since 2014
But i need pipe experience which I'm working on
How long did it take you to get on a job
It took me 9 months to get on a job. It also just depends on how busy your area is.
No more vids ?
