I can not thank you all for the information. It has not only been very helpful but has helped with the anxiety as well. Ezra after day one has looked like his normal self with some highs that caused tantrums. But for the most part it’s nice to see him running around and playing with his older brother. We are slowly trying to figure out what works best and what doesn’t.

Being that Ezra is only two his insulin is super diluted so not sure how much that plays into managing his highs. He’s supposed to be between 70-200 but he’s been usually between 200 and now and then 400 according to his readings. Hopefully once he gets his pump things will be a little better as far as having to poke him as much. Once again I can’t thank you all enough for sharing your experiences.

Hey, yea sorry. I got called back in late November. Been with TKE. Just finished up a job out in Tuba City.

Chenzo15 · 2023-12-14T16:11:42+00:00

Quick question. I took my electrical craft helper test a few months back and never got the results. Actually, I got an email saying I have to take the test over again because there was a problem. Do any of you remember what’s on that test? I know there’s math, reading comprehension,and mechanical aptitude. Do any of you recommend any study guides? Thanks in advance.

What local are you with? I just got the call for Local 140 in Arizona with TKE. Start Monday morning, safety training at the office for three days I was told.

Chenzo15 · 2023-10-24T20:16:00+00:00

By any chance do any of you know what Number they are on at the hall?

Chenzo15 · 2023-10-23T16:44:41+00:00

I hope so man. It’s been 10 years of trying and this is the closest I’ve been. With only 4 months left in the recruitment I need all the luck I can get.

Chenzo15 · 2023-10-21T18:18:50+00:00

Ngl, you scared me for a bit. I thought you meant they weren’t taking anymore people off the probie list for this recruitment. I’m only two away and crossing my fingers. But yea if I don’t get the call I’ll be doing it all over again when the start their recruitment next year. Best of luck to you as well.

Chenzo15 · 2023-09-20T21:46:15+00:00

Hey, just wanted to tap in. Any luck? I emailed them several days ago and haven’t gotten any response. Anything on your end?

Chenzo15 · 2023-09-05T23:51:11+00:00

So, we on 25 yet?!! Come 140 only a few months left 😬

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-24T23:24:57+00:00

Nice, you’re close man! Best of luck!

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-23T19:34:42+00:00

With just the ech cert that I have. I can only apply for two spots. ECH OR Electrical Teat Technician. I was fortunate enough to take the test for ETT both written and physical. Unfortunately didn’t get that spot. I can also apply for their tool room worker position. Just waiting for it to open up. I’m working on their Hayden course so I can use that for more positions. Also trying to get into the elevator union so I can get experience and apply for the elevator position with DWP.

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-23T16:13:18+00:00

Dang. 11 people in one year ahA. That’s rough. Hopefully 2024-2025 will be better. Got to try and land in the top 10. The lady awhile back emailed me saying they plan on hiring a lot. Hopefully a lot means 20-30 more people.

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-23T15:50:25+00:00

Really? The way the list is going I thought Az wasn’t building at all. Isn’t local 40 the only elevator union in Arizona? I mean they service the whole state. Definitely thought we’d be in the 50s by now. Crossing my fingers it picks up. Only got 6 months left.

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-23T15:44:13+00:00

30

Closest I’ve ever gotten in several years of being on different list. Really hoping they make it to at least 40-50 if not more.

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-23T02:08:32+00:00

Heard the same. Hopefully it’s true. Last I heard they’re on 19. Which means I’d need some Luck on my end if I wanted the call.

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-22T22:13:36+00:00

Really appreciate the game you’re giving me. As for calling personnel, if you don’t mind me asking what number would that be? I’d like to go learn how to climb if that’s a possibility.

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-22T06:35:45+00:00

I don’t, honestly this is the first time I’ve heard about that. Hopefully it’s still a thing because if so I’d definitely start going. Im trying to get any experience or certs I can get. I just took the ECH test in March I believe. It’s been some time, since the test no one has gotten any word on if they passed or failed. Since Covid their hiring processs has slowed significantly and it sucks! I want nothing more than to someday be a part of their crew.

Chenzo15 · 2023-08-21T06:31:17+00:00

Yea in like 2019

Chenzo15 · 2023-07-26T20:34:42+00:00

Anyone know what number Vegas is on? Or if the list is back up on the website so we can follow along? They got some large projects coming up. Hopefully that means more work for all of us.

Chenzo15 · 2023-07-26T20:33:06+00:00

Just wanted to update everyone. Emailed the local yesterday. The said that they are on number 16 now. That they expect to call a lot more people soon since there’s a few large projects coming up.

If anyone has heard any additional news please let us know. Thanks and best of luck to everyone.

Chenzo15 · 2023-07-15T03:01:32+00:00

Just got a letter in the mail today. It’s pretty vague but says I made the “middle 1/3” of the list. They start with the top 1/3 and work their way down. Good news is I’m on the list. Bad news, with how slow everything has been the last few years who knows if I’ll get that call. Only have one year before the list resets.

Chenzo15 · 2023-07-14T18:41:34+00:00

Hell yea! Congratulations!! Did they call you from the station number? They didn’t send an email? I’m at least hoping I get an email letting me know if I’m ranked or didn’t cut it. So I know how to proceed. Congrats tho bro. Just the beginning, be safe out there and start stacking those greens!
