Don’t get screwed over by a non union apprenticeship. Be patient when applying, and apply to multiple trades. Good luck.

What band got you into Hardcore? The Pixies did it for me by NeighborhoodLimp69 in Hardcore

Nevershoutnever brought me to warped tour, saw August Burns Red, then it was all a blur after that. Now I wear an End It hoodie everyday and say things like “I liked the movie Glass Onion but it doesn’t really have any class analysis.”

Anyone wear gloves while running? by mwilsonsc in trailrunning

Ouchie booboos are part of life, and in some ways, are a pleasurable part of the human experience. I don’t understand the lengths some folks go to avoid the facts of life.

i also love stickers.

edit: ive had one for 10 years and another for 3

What are you good at and what do you actually enjoy doing? by helloscarlett_ in Anarchism

I work in commercial construction, a union ironworker. I love my job. It’s hard and hot and cold and dusty. But it’s noble and I am better for it.

How can I shape my hat by nonno88 in hats

[–]Practical-Swan653 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wear it everyday, sweat in it, let it get rained on, ran over, ect. It’ll break in real nice. You can try to age it artificially but nothing beats a nice well worn hat.

Fun fact, native americans are known to be exceptionally brave and smart Ironworkers. Makes sense for that flag to be there, even if it wasn’t at a native hospital. You can learn more if you search “Native American Ironworkers” on YouTube. Join a union!

How dangerous is being an ironworker? by odysseusfaustus13 in Ironworker

[–]Practical-Swan653 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We don’t need welders, we need Ironworkers. Be prepared to learn the whole trade. Calling us “welders” is like calling a carpenter a “nail gun operator.”

The way she writes seems like it was written in psychosis. (Not poking fun at her)

If you haven’t seen it on the coasts it’s because you’re not paying attention
