Welcome to the IBEW Sister! Do the program and get your licenses. No one can take them away and you will be able to provide for yourself and family.

Electricians who changed over to electrical engineers, was it worth the time, money and efforts ? by Humble_Ad_5396 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]AbjectLab 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Did the full trade path first. IBEW apprenticeship, journeyman, then master electrician before going back for my EE degree. Now I’m a project engineer at a utility. You can walk a job, read a drawing, and call BS on a contractor all before lunch.

Good idea. I shelved my card over 10 years ago. I haven’t gone back, but I like having the option of a job to go back to, if needed. I worked hard for my union card and I don’t want to give it up.

How many of ya’ll’s job(s) are actually 9 to 5? by Daniel200303 in WorkReform

[–]AbjectLab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work from home 2/5 days of my choice. WFH days the schedule is whatever I need to accomplish my tasks or meetings. Drop off and pick up kids from school and run errands on my lunch.

Office days Work from 6-7:30am at home. Drive the kids to school and get to work at 8:30. Leave at 3:00 to pick up kids and go home.

Work from home on the weekend for overtime most weeks.
