Good video, going into my 4th year in the apprenticeship and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made 👍🏿

I've been in since '95 brother, same.
I'm in local 150 in Chicago though. TH-cam decided that since I watched thier video, I needed to watch all the local's videos. I ain't mad about it

My dad Robert D Barto just passed away oct 31, He retired from local 18. My mom gave me his 30 year pin, union card and medal. He always told me I should join local 18. I'm seriously considering it now. Been a welder for roughly 10 years and for the past 6 years I've been a union boilermaker building nuclear reactors for submarines and aircraft carriers. But now, I think I may make a change. This all certainly looks like a trade I would enjoy way more!

Great video! I just applied and excited to have this opportunity. I like how the training facility has every type of equipment on the jobsite including cranes

[@talesofsoutheasternohio6207]

Good luck to you there, it is a great facility and opportunity!

Is there an age cutoff for the apprenticeship? I'm almost 40, but have no prior experience with heavy machinery.

[@grantboyd2034]

No
