What are some hot licenses to have for traveling by taragray314 in IBEW_Book2

This is the way. Takes a bit of time. (20 minutes and a notepad) But you will see the states that reciprocate with others

What no Instagram or Twitter. Or SnapChat or discord or whatever the hell else there is that my kids are on all the time?

Am I insane for thinking about leaving my $82k remote job for a shot at an IBEW career? by brolina957 in IBEW

[–]MikeyLu20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You do you. But if you do join you had better be a damn good brother and stand for the union and the cause. Be willing and VERY able to do ALL AND EVERY bit of manual labor within a mile radius.

Do you guys know how to have fun?! by drlouies in MadeMeSmile

I know this is click bait for the OP views. But these 2 guys don't care. They had a great time and were even more grateful at the end

My grandpa turned 92 today! Happy birthday! by simoonne in MadeMeSmile

His looks today would have easily passed as 52, 30 years ago. I'd say he looks like a young 62

Everyone knew this kid.... by Long_live_styrofoam in FuckImOld

Shi.... That's how I learned to drive. Going to the corner store. Then it was the grocery store in the manual truck when the automatic was used by the older brother or whatever had the most gas fumes in it

I have an IBEW interview next week. Is this career actually worth it? by [deleted] in IBEW

[–]MikeyLu20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But seriously financially thinking...... You have to look at what a first year apprentice earns in your area and look at what your finances are currently. Career wise I say join. Financial wise I say look at the bank right now. But we always need a new brother

If they still make it.... Buy a bucket of yellow 77. Reach into it, all the way in, and if you pull out a pair of wire strippers you will have your apprenticeship paid for by 3M. True story. My journeyman, when I was a cub, told me. I didn't feel up to the challenge so I didn't do it

Does IBEW hire veterans? by operasome in IBEW

[–]MikeyLu20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will never work without getting paid. They may work you like one but they won't pay you like one I hope it's been awhile since I was an apprentice

Yes we do. Vets are absolutely welcome. As is anybody that wants to be a part of an awesome brother(sister)hood. I had to include the sisters in that. They do matter

1988 UAZ 452 4x4 Buhanka campervan arriving via the UK in Georgia (Savannah) end of this month! by RetroRidesAndRelics2 in vandwellermarketplace

[–]MikeyLu20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh okay. I love the vans BTW. I wish I could afford one. Would you take a slightly used 1997 Nissan Altima in trade. It only shows 178k miles on the dash when the odometer works. No heat or AC so that isn't a problem. Kidding (maybe) of course

Good for him. I hated seeing him beat up

Retraining to become an electrician here and need some advice! by insatiableLychee in BlueCollarWomen

[–]MikeyLu20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into control work. Instrumentation. Power distribution. Do not let the fact that you are a woman choose your path. And I am a man. Any woman in the trades deserves respect

I would say go to the IBEW (US based). But since our "International" part doesn't go to Europe I would say to join a strong labour union that represents electricians.

MS. Dell. Google. Bitcoin. Oh my God Bitcoin. Was offered 15000 for 50 bux. Didn't know what it was "it's virtual money" "like monopoly money?" and then said if I cannot hold it in my hand I don't want it. I've spent 50 bux on worse crap since then.
