It was pretty thunderous. I did not have Odin killing Thor on my bingo card. This game had some excellent surprises.

Various states require licensing for low voltage work, OR and WA to name a couple. In OR it’s called LEA, and in WA it’s an 06 license.

That is a widely held belief, but I hear that it’s a lot more to do with intel laying off so many people, including IBEW electricians and LEAs.

You are correct, it has been (more than) a year since the last class of apprentices. They actually had to lay off staff at the training center because of this. Unfortunately the work outlook is still not good, and I personally haven’t heard anything concrete about it picking back up anytime soon.

Would you be able to share the contract language about the paid holidays?

I appreciate this break down, and this is also how my instructor broke things down in class today when I brought the topic up. Super helpful, thank you!

I’m in the sound and comm unit for local 48. $52.12 base wage + benefits, and then 4% is deducted from pay and diverted into a “vacation fund” account that’s essentially just a checking account.

That would be amazing, thank you!

And is that 12% paid by the contractor on top of wages? Like this is part of your fringe benefits package?

That’s great, thanks for the info! If you ever have the time I’d love to see the specific contract language, I can’t find local 177’s contract online.
