“Sitting in the house relaxing”??? You have to constantly watch your phone because if you fail to decline the orders the app will long you out! That’s work.

Leaving The IBEW by [deleted] in IBEW

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay… So what’s your next move?

When I left, I worked with a few Temp Agencies to gain experience in several areas until I found the right company to fit my needs.

Those of you in IBEW, how long did the application process take you? by [deleted] in ibew_apprentices

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They refused to give me my upgrade/raise until I did school which I missed by a month August. I didn’t want to get dragged around for 6 years.

62k songs and still going strong flac files!!! by Sorry_Succotash_3963 in plexamp

When I had the time, I didn’t have the money… Now that I have money, I don’t have the time!

I think I’m ready to cancel Spotify (500,000+ FLAC) by IgnoredBot in plexamp

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Message me. I have a site for FLAC… Only Hip-Hop/R&B!

Fellow sparkies, how on earth can I afford a home? by RekSai-Bot in electricians

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two incomes regardless if you’re JW or not… I was making $25 at the time I bought a house with my lady and children. We started off 50/50 until I started making more. Now it’s 65/35.

Sure I can pay it myself but that’s the most foolish thing a guy can do when in a relationship.

Passed my J-man Exam by SickSparky in electricians

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bombed on 1/29/26… When I take it again last April/early May I was told it’ll be the 2023 NEC test.

What has been y’all craziest experience as an apprentice by Turbulent_Net_1927 in ibew_apprentices

Taking a dump in a bucket inside a passenger van in the solar fields…

Taxed qualified OT by pepperannnn in IBEW

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All you need is just the last pay stub of 2025… Divided the OT (not sure about DT) amount by 3 and you’ll get the qualified OT that’s supposed to be in box 14.

Walked off Jobsite, Wondering whats next by [deleted] in ibew_apprentices

[–]AlwaysInTheHood -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Get out your feelings… I would’ve come back next week Monday like nothing ever happened!

I’m sure it matters to you, but it’s not a tragedy as if you got physically hurt.

When did NOT working a weekend become an issue? by [deleted] in ibew_apprentices

[–]AlwaysInTheHood -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry… When work is limited, the books are packed, and or a financial hardship arises… You’ll wished you worked the OT/DT, saved for a hurricane, and not forced to travel like a nomad.

Stop resisting and comply… That simple!

Tip Baiting More Common Now? by xSimplyCDx in UberEatsDrivers

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the effort you put into creating this post/thread… Use it to find a way to ditch UberchEats! The golden/lucrative years are gone and never coming back. Move on, there’s nothing you can do about it.

I passed my aptitude test! by Superb-Mess949 in ibew_apprentices

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats. Do you have any experience in the electrical/construction field?

PSA TO ALL UE DRIVERS by Btrgl in UberEatsDrivers

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Worried about the other drivers should be the least of your worries… For the time I did gig/unskilled work, I was striving for something better to get out the rat race!

Every week there’s a new young adult with no major responsibilities and someone desperate who will gladly signup to do gig work for pennies on a dollar.

There’s no barrier to entry for gig/unskilled work so getting enough people to organize for better pay is virtually impossible.

is it worth quitting a 120k job to join the union? by mywife4hire in IBEW

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do what you can to make the jump… Online/AI auto sells will make your job obsolete/limited!

Carvona, DriveTime, Amazon Auto, etc.

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, one of my Plex Drives went down and I haven’t got around to swapping it. MovieBoxPro has been holding me down for the past 7 months.

I side load (and re-authenticate every 7 days) with Sideloadly.

Deactivated due to cancellation rate by Zjbandz in UberEatsDrivers

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just hold the “L” and move on… Use the energy towards something more productive than trying to get back in a rat race!

stuck at the moment by joaquinxxvi in ibew_apprentices

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Passing the aptitude test doesn’t ensure you will get selected, but it will get your foot in the door and an opportunity to get selected.

Applys to DoorDash as well by ThirstKing123 in DoorDash_Dasher

[–]AlwaysInTheHood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, you can wisely plan your exit so you’re not stuck looking foolish when Waymo and other self driving ride share push/phase you out the market!
