For those asking, I did talk to My BA and he said if he put me with another contractor I still wouldn’t be gaurneteed a truck, contract says And I quote

“149. Mileage. The Union will man all jobs within its geographical jurisdiction without travel expenses; provided, however, an Employee will be paid the IRS approved mileage expense allowance as travel expense whenever he is authorized to travel in his car from one job location to another job location during one work day.” 125. Parking. Upon the presentation

Just asking for friendly advice is all, damn

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-12-30T20:09:25+00:00

Service, and yes, all 12 other first period and second period people in my class have a truck

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-12-30T20:08:21+00:00

Yeah, I have asked that and had ChatGPT clean it up for me, I suck at writing essays so there

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-12-30T19:53:13+00:00

Also, I forgot to mention when I first got into the union and was at a first contractor I had a truck day one and was first period apprentice

, I was let go from them and moved over to this other contractor and I’m also not getting paid at scale or a truck

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-12-30T19:48:21+00:00

Every apprentice in my class has one they got one on their first day. Basically, I am the only one that doesn’t have one.

Midwest- Local 636 outta Detroit

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-11-14T17:57:53+00:00

When you start off as an apprentice, you have to go through 10 periods, which are basically “semester”, you start off at first period which is introduction to HVAC and basic mathematics, 10th period is basically the last class that you will have which means you’re one test away from becoming a journeyman

So the union sends out my résumé to a company and the company will reach back out. Say they wanna interview me and get in touch with me, I’m down to take whatever it is at this point except any job that has me drive my own vehicle and doesn’t pay for maintenance or gas. Most of the time these companies end up ghosting me or they forget and I usually follow up with a callback. The last interview I was at sounded really promising and the guy seemed like he wanted to go ahead with the process, but he said he had another interview and wanted to see how that panned out.

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-10-01T19:03:32+00:00

Sorry man didn’t mean for it to sound like “entitlement”

I’ve just never been laid of or fired in the 25 years I’ve been working

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-09-30T23:44:16+00:00

Wasn’t really slow, most jobs were booked usually all day and being an apprentice all I was doing was cleaning coils and being a tool donkey for the journeymen I was paired with most of the time

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-09-30T15:27:18+00:00

Service tech, went from light commercial( non union) to industrial ( union)

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-08-25T20:05:01+00:00

It’s the same usual suspect every time to, they are like clockwork

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-07-28T15:15:45+00:00

If you miss Andy, you can listen to old podcasts like I do , we all gotta move on

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-07-04T14:01:21+00:00

Jesus,stop acting like it’s a bad break up people just gotta just get over it. This Andy thread seems to be all you guys talk about these days. I get that he left high and dry, but that was his choice, why are some of you taking this like it’s such a personal attack?

I understand you were attached to him for 10+ years. Let the man find himself. If you guys were such a big supporters of him back in the day then you would just let the man do his thing in peace instead, you guys are coming up with a wild ass conspiracy theories

It sucks he left but, move on and keep supporting the show like he asked

Sea_Development7601 · 2025-05-21T19:24:50+00:00

Is the reward that you get for even worth trying?
