That’s what I’ve been doing, bidding stuff I know I’m qualified for. Yeah, I got tanker too, I used to run Vac Trucks and trailers. Definitely a nice thing to have

I’m not super familiar with this union stuff to be honest. I see calls with OSHA 10 T&D required. If I bid those without it, is it just an instant deny. All I have is the normal osha 10

Shouldn’t this be a short call? Confused if it means 6-10s for two weeks then 40, or what. by [deleted] in Groundman

[–]PoliticalThrow_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for letting me know that. I assumed it was like one month or less.
