[QUOTE="mlazyj, post: 882872, member: 17406"] No Arkansas I'am not here to start any wars , so just kind of hold your pants on . I was a union cement mason ,it provided me a good living with good benifits and I have a small retirement if I live to 63 . I worked with and around the other trades and have a pretty good idea of how most of the other trade unions work . The one thing you can take to the bank , is with a full dispatch hall , that they will keep you buisy day in and day out . The best money you will make is doing large commercial or factory maintence . Union contractors don't do shack work , you'll learn how to do it ,but that's not going to be your bread and butter . I don't know your area or what you have for work , with the way things are now , plan to travel to stay working , electricians are right up there with pipe fitters for booming out . Cop pay might be 16 bucks a hour , but what is your apprentice pay less dues and vacation fund ? How much is your sparky retirement worth per year of service , compare to cop retirement . Best of luck at what ever you do , I just know if a business manager or a business agents mouth is moving their lieing [/QUOTE]
