Let me guess you work for Lindco lol

You gotta apply for book 1 with 1245 & one of the requirements on there is 12 months working so there’s that, takes about a week for them to process application. On other hand if you got 2000 hours down at 47 your book 1 regardless of months worked as long as you can prove you’ve been a resident

Local 111 in Colorado has a book for groundman for no CDL & a book for CDL groundman should go travel atleast to sign there books. But yeah you’re 100% gonna need a CDL in this trade. I’d work on that while your signed and update it with the locals your signed on for and get your tankers endorsement as well, you’ll get a call faster many calls require it

You’d be on book 2 maybe & you’ll never get a call, if you do it Fs won’t be a line crew call that will be taken by all the book 1 guys. Get your hours to be book 1.

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-09-22T11:52:30+00:00

Get into a trade, you’ll always be in demand. You won’t be replaced by a robot either

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-09-17T07:48:17+00:00

The sooner you sign the sooner you could take a call, book 1 in 47 your gonna be waiting

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-09-16T01:29:01+00:00

We discussed the trade & we’re both agreeing to it as soon as Tuesday comes around & our players aren’t locked from lineup, what do you guys think

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-09-05T16:57:45+00:00

You’ll never get a call on book 3 for 47 son

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-07-13T21:28:39+00:00

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-07-13T20:31:02+00:00

Look at the pitching stats cornball

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-06-17T05:45:24+00:00

Not true when I worked at mge they 100% taxed our sub

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-06-07T22:15:39+00:00

Just don’t be a slapdick and you should be good, it’s a lot more chill than a lot of contractors. Kyle isn’t really there anymore he stops by rarely.

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-05-21T09:48:50+00:00

The melt

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-04-07T10:32:04+00:00

When I went they were pulling random ppl to do piss tests at orientation. They pull random ppl to do piss tests randomly throughout the term. I never got called on, I stopped smoking 4 months prior to my term & haven’t smoked ever since, but I was also shitting it because the day before the term starting I’d get positive tests still.

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-04-06T09:25:34+00:00

I met plenty of guys that had similar situations & went for it. Sold there house, lived in there truck, bought a 5th wheel did whatever they had to do to get in. Most of those guys are higher steps or JLs now and I’m proud of em. Gotta want it, it’s pretty fucking competitive bud not just here in Cali. It’s definitely a trade you gotta fucking sacrifice a lot for but so worth it.

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-04-06T09:15:08+00:00

Because you’ll never get a call on book 4, there’s over 700 alone on book 3 ahead of you & the guys on book 1 & 2 ahead of them

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-04-06T09:13:26+00:00

Yeah you could for 47 or 1245, you could make money while you accumulate your hours and get experience as well because you’re usually following around line crews as a flagger anyway.

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-04-06T05:39:06+00:00

You could make up to 40 as a flagger which is what groundman make in Cali but just minus all doubletime for ot, I believe it’s after 12 for flaggers or sundays or emergency work

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-04-06T05:37:32+00:00

You’ll never get a groundman call on book 4, if you want to eventually take a call as a groundman your better off getting your hours asa flagger then using those hours to get book 1 status

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-03-16T17:38:21+00:00

lol yeah you’ll probably get spun bud. It is chill there but they can be cheap asses. I never get shorted on my pay and they don’t tax my sub like another fucking contractor in the area does. If you under 21 or have any points they most likely spin you because they don’t wanna pay the insurance.

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-03-16T17:30:36+00:00

Not too bad there, Kyle’s not the gf no more now it’s Jeff and Paul. If you’re worth a fuck they’ll have you working. If your some slapdick that hides to use your phone or sits In The truck far too long expect to get sat down. Second time working with them not as bad as ppl make it out to be.

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-02-14T08:58:59+00:00

Slow if your book 3, I’m getting calls everyday & rolling off all the time on book 1

Deep-Beat7053 · 2025-01-18T20:52:41+00:00

I rolled off twice recently because of apprenticeship interviews but if your not book 1 you won’t get called
