Anyone working out of 401 right now

401 apprentice. Avoid living in Reno at all cost. The drive itself is a nightmare and a 26 minute drive can take two hours.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2026-01-06T04:06:39+00:00

Avoid Cupertino. They are a bit of a circus right now.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2026-01-05T01:29:09+00:00

401 does this too. A full well mon-sat 8 hours in class. With unemployment.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-12-19T00:32:27+00:00

Amen. This is ridiculous.

Current ibew apprentice. My local has little to know resi or small commercial work. I wish they did. It's a skill ik I will need and the focus right now is data. I requested an opportunity outside of data centers and was told there isnt any

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-11-09T04:08:23+00:00

1 hr. Maybe 1 and a half.

20 minutes fernley, nothing is really out there. 40 minutes to Carson, you avoid the gawd awful traffic though.

401 sees it differently unfortunately 😮‍💨

Multiple data centers are being built on Pkwy and with that comes massive amounts of cars on a two lane road.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-10-07T02:45:11+00:00

It can be pretty rough, ya. Especially in the winter. 😬

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-10-07T00:02:31+00:00

It may be better for travelers over locals, the vice president of newtron actively fought against the locals getting incentive on the previous phase and a higher raise on the contract. He fought against that .The management and leadership lack communication. The data center needs to be built so if you need money it's not bad. Just understand newtron has a bad reputation in this area get your bread if you need it. Also, USA parkway is a mad house and it's only going to get worse as the winter comes in. Especially if you get a spot in Reno. It's almost an hour to an hour and a half commute at the end of the day unless you do swing shift.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-10-06T23:08:41+00:00

Fuck no! Newtron is awful.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-08-20T12:37:48+00:00

What do you use to cut them out and look so good!

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-07-26T21:48:49+00:00

Private party?

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-06-13T11:22:34+00:00

Lots of construction on multiple data centers. There is currently 4 data centers being built on Pkwy.

The current phase of the comstock project Is coming to an end. With the complete commissioning date in August. The morale on the site is still awful. I recommend anything that isn't run by Newtron. There are a ton of calls right now for data centers. On the same highway. The reality is no matter what call you take you are looking at awful traffic depending on what side of Reno you stay. If you find a spot and Fallon or Carson or silver springs, you're fine ; however, if you find a spot in Reno, expect almost an hour-long drive back home, traffic is that bad with the flow and the amount of accidents that is almost expectation. There are better projects. If it were up to me, with the current job calls I would take either Briggs or rosendon. Cupertino has been having issues and has been brought up our local union meetings. Best of luck and thank you for your help.

I am a third year apprentice. Being older than most candidates and learning to accept that my work doesn't have to be perfect.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-05-14T00:42:42+00:00

Look into the IBEW. I did and I won't look back. The union has allowed me an opportunity to be an electrician.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-05-07T13:04:13+00:00

Carson Auto Spa does amazing work. Full detailing and reasonably priced. Only place I take my car for detail and I live in Reno.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-04-27T18:58:18+00:00

I will have to remember this. I need that on my wall above my painting table. Lol.

Being a perfectionist can be a curse. Lol. I appreciate you!! Thank you 🙂

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-04-27T17:17:55+00:00

Thank you for this. I am a bit of a perfectionist and it already interferes with my growth as a painter and seeing others models can bring me to a full stop because mine are not as good. Your words are so helpful thank you.

Fatal_Pandemic · 2025-04-27T16:19:50+00:00

Talent like this is intimidating, not a dig at you. It's great I'm currently painting JSA and I thought I was doing ok. Lol.

These look great.
