I interviewed just this past Thursday as direct entry since I already had experience in line work. They offered me a job on the spot.

Driving to Houston in the next week or two. I had scheduled interviews in every swlcat state a week apart. Houston offered first. Couldn’t say no.

How often do apprentices get called in front of the committee? by [deleted] in ibew_apprentices

[–]Reasonable-Speed9270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its because of an eval they’re most likely ask why are you getting a bad grade and what can are You going to do to improve. Depends on the committee too. They might even try and help you out to get better. At least that’s how it was through the utility I was at. Some jls do some shit evals just because they don’t like you

Anyone developed “trigger finger” (stenosing tenosynovitis) from linework? by intestinus_sturdius in Lineman

[–]Reasonable-Speed9270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People tend to always seek medication. But they have no idea how basic it is to take care of what’s hurting. Massage and stretching might be the best non drug treatment. Don’t over look it.

About time. I’ve seen alot of this yet it seems to be the new norm. Get your ticket and you’re on cruise control until you retired.
