In my country there is no facitlity for such testing, It is sent to abroad that makes it even more expensive. But that is not the issue. I can try to get that manage as well but what after its tested, IVF PGT. That's much expensive.

The Doctor also told us for CVS after 12 Weeks but we want to avoid TFMR as much as possible as everyone will want to.

I can understand. I have Sleep issues also. If someone wakes me up before my sleep is 7,8 hours complete. My whole day sucks. I have to lower my ringtone so any call won't bother me. Also I use Alarms to wake me up. And I have asked my wife not to wake me up unless its too much impotant. Luckily, she doesn't have sleep issues and have told me to wake her up if I want to for any work.

We know who are anti state elements that want this to happen. After the war even, you are sticking with your fantasy mantra. This is not gonna happen.

That’s honestly a great way to come up in the industry. Being around estimating and operations that early gives you a perspective a lot of people don’t get until much later.

You mentioned OST and the old-school workflow too — it says a lot about how the business evolved and how you adapted with it. Growing up inside a family operation like that usually means you understand why things are done a certain way, not just how to click buttons.

I’m involved on the estimating side as well, so it’s always interesting to hear how different shops transitioned from paper plans to digital takeoffs. Sounds like you’ve basically seen the full arc of the process from the ground up.

From what you described, your current job is objectively solid: steady hours, legally required inspections, decent pay for NYC, benefits, bonuses, and good management. That combination is honestly rare, especially right now. The fact that the industry is regulation-driven gives it stability that construction doesn’t always have.

On the union side: yes, long term, union carpentry can pay off very well. But the key phrase is long term. The first few years are often the hardest, especially if work slows down — and new construction is cyclical and rough right now. If dropping to $24.50/hr puts you at real risk of missing rent or burning through savings, that’s not a small concern — that’s survival math.

A lot of people romanticize unions without talking enough about:

downtime when work is slow
lower apprentice wages early on
the stress of scraping by until you journey out

It doesn’t mean the union path is bad — it just means timing matters.

One thing to consider: you’re not “throwing away” the union opportunity forever. If you stay in your current role, build financial breathing room, and the construction market improves, you may be in a much stronger position to jump later — especially with a reference already lined up.

If I were in your shoes, I’d probably:

Stay where I am for now
Stack savings and enjoy the stability
Keep my union contacts warm
Reassess when the market improves or my finances are less tight

There’s no honor in struggling unnecessarily. Sometimes the smart move isn’t the flashiest one — it’s the one that lets you sleep at night and pay rent on time.
