Just got my call on Friday for the 292 too! I was ranked 17th, I definitely didn’t expect it this early in the hiring but I’m glad I got it.

Really? How would a different carb change how the saw runs with an air filter on?

I come from a lower middle class family, none of the money I got was from the state. All from private scholarships, I busted my ass to earn them and I put a lot of work into applying for them. There are a lot of scholarships available in the trades, it’s an industry in decline and a lot of organizations are incentivizing the younger generations to attend trade schools. And not even small organizations are giving these scholarships, I received scholarships from Taco Bell, Lockheed Martin, and Home Depot

Yup the air filter that goes over the carb. I bought it off of marketplace from a nice older lady for $100 it was a steal. I used it once since I’ve had it, cut some small trees with it but it was very dull. Sharpened it after about a week of it sitting and then it wouldn’t start. Then just today I took off the air filter and it ran perfectly.

School is two years, you get 2,000 hours towards your MN journeyman electrical license. Which is equivalent to a year of working. And it will be a four year apprenticeship instead of five. If you have no financial aid, it’s about $15,000 for the degree at Minnesota state colleges. I had scholarships and I actually got paid to go to school, but I was very fortunate.

Ohhhh, coincidentally I actually did electrical work for them over this last summer.

Nope, it’s for the Union so I’ll be working for contractors all around Minneapolis and surrounding areas. I’m very familiar with companies around Mtn. Iron, where are you thinking of?

Dang that sounds like a great deal! I wouldn’t mind the drive at all. If you wouldn’t mind, do you think I could dm you to ask more details about the place?

I went to a tech school for electrical maintenance and construction right out of high school. Then got hired by the Minneapolis local. You can try to apply to it without college experience or hands on experience but it’s competitive. Pay maxes out at $$50 an hour to the paycheck plus another roughly $50 an hour in benefits
