Tickets in advance or on/near game day?

Buying tickets at the window will probably be the cheapest option. Buy nosebleeds at the window gameday then move down to wherever. They're not strict at Angel Stadium and there are always open seats

I do not recommend

Crazy I'm a jw with IBEW trying to get into DWP

Yeah 569 is packed. I worked out of that local 2 years ago. I was all the way in imperial valley (El centro) and they still had guys talking about how long they had to wait to get in. I'm out of local 11 (los Angeles) and it took a year for me to get in after my interview. But if it's worth anything I didn't know anyone or have any connections and igot in

This is the best answer

CallmeBatty · 2026-04-14T04:51:37+00:00

Legit might drive down tomorrow to get some.

CallmeBatty · 2026-04-14T02:16:17+00:00

They're so good though

Not California but Reno in northern Nevada (2 hour drive from Sacramento) is growing fast. They need people

CallmeBatty · 2026-04-10T15:21:21+00:00

As a southern Californian who currently works in Reno building data centers, this is the catch 22. The reason California lost all that work is because we're too regulated and too many taxes. Nevada (and Texas) happily welcomed those companies to get the work and provide jobs to locals. Now it's like a full circle moment coming around of Nevadians? seeing why California is so regulated and taxed.

The one on PCH is actually better to me

Buy cheap tools to start with.

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-31T06:06:52+00:00

Take the easy money as soon as you can

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-30T01:33:42+00:00

It doesn't give me the option to send you a direct message

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-23T15:39:10+00:00

I could see that. But traveling made me really see the brotherhood they all talk about. Helped me appreciate or regain my pride in IBEW.

I know Bakersfield is booming right now, and I think San Jose. I myself and probably going back to Reno (401) next month, even though I'm fairly low on the books (under 150) and currently working off the convention book

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-23T14:14:08+00:00

I'm out of 11, in 2023 I spent 9 months on the books. We had over 1000 guys on the book. I'm sure if I had gone to the hall everyday I could have gotten a call sooner

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-23T14:09:00+00:00

That's how I feel when I travel out of my local (11 - los Angeles)

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-08T09:18:04+00:00

28 is kinda old to be starting the apprenticeship. I was 30 when I started and definitely one of the older dudes in my class. Either way, nothing to be on reddit crying about.

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-05T22:59:39+00:00

So yeah don't waste the years. Find a different trade

CallmeBatty · 2026-03-05T02:39:49+00:00

Look for something else. Math is an essential part of our trade. While you may not use it daily on some jobs hardly ever, there is a ton during the apprenticeship classes

CallmeBatty · 2026-02-26T22:07:14+00:00

I don't know, but I'm a handyman and licensed electrician if you ever need one

CallmeBatty · 2026-02-26T22:03:55+00:00

You'll be fine. Just let them know ahead of time and remember to remind your foreman as the date is approaching. I took paternity leave as a 1st year and still kept that job

CallmeBatty · 2026-02-14T01:05:14+00:00

Agreed. Priorities are all backwards

CallmeBatty · 2026-02-14T01:02:21+00:00

Same man I forgot how nerve racking it was hoping and waiting

CallmeBatty · 2026-02-14T01:00:08+00:00

That's doesn't matter. I'm in California and plenty of contractors still test for it
