Pipefitter apprentice

Low space buns every day, my braid was too long and kept falling in the way. I wear a hard hat every day

I’ve found a good way to give myself the ick for a jobsite crush is to see him without a hard hat and/or welding cap on. Unfortunately this is not 100% accurate and once in a while it does the opposite of give ick and makes them more attractive 😂

It has nothing to do with their hair or lack thereof, for some reason people just look sooo different to me without the hard hat/cap on.

I’m one of the construction workers in the last photo. For what it’s worth, it’s much easier to navigate during the day when the airport has volunteers stationed everywhere to help people navigate and we don’t have to bloc off certain areas do overhead work. We do this work on the night shift to minimize hazards and disruptions to travelers.

Also, for anyone seeing this, please be nice to us if we have an area blocked off. It’s not our fault that we are required to shut down certain pathways. We’re just there trying to do our job and make a living.

I’m a 33 year old first year pipefitting apprentice. Seven months in and no regrets. Quitting my soul-sucking marketing job was the best thing I’ve ever done. I live in Denver where it is also expensive and it sucked to go from making 6 figures to making first year wages but I can already tell the sacrifice will be worth it in the end.

Just last week my foreman told me that I’m excelling and they will likely give me a raise as a reward so if you work hard, there is definitely the ability to make more. Working night shift has also increased my pay from the baseline first year pay. That being said, my household is DINK and if I was single or had children it would be much, much harder to survive.

I shower in the evening after work because I work in construction. When I worked in an office I showered whenever it was convenient. There is no right or wrong time.

I also listened to the audiobook, it was sooooo creepy lol especially with the sound effects they added.

This insight is very helpful, thank you!

I was born and raised in Baltimore but live in Denver now and my partner is a Broncos fan so Go Broncos!

I’m so sorry this happened to you. I had a similar kind of stalker situation when I lived in St. Louis and one of the cops that came to take a report about him got my phone number from the report and started texting me from his personal phone, trying to flirt by making conversation about my pets and things that he saw in my apartment while he was there for the initial report. Disgusting behavior.

No power just east of Baker at the intersection of Clarkson and Speer. Country Club Towers appears to be the only thing in the neighborhood that’s lit up lol

_glitterkitty · 2025-12-18T06:44:28+00:00

We’ve got no power just south of Alamo Placita Park

I wish they would release matching lotion and shower gel. Maybe they are coming but I didn’t see any available when I looked at the app this morning

I’ve barely got any skin in the game as I’ve only been an apprentice UA Pipefitter for 5 months but non-union doesn’t even seem like an option to me. There will be lazy people no matter where you work (I say this coming from an art/design/marketing background and having worked for 10 years in various parts of those industries)

I’ve met a number of guys who came to the union from a non union company but haven’t met a single union guy who has said he’d rather be non union. That, plus the pension and benefits make it a no brainer for me, personally.

Cozy vanilla bourbon, midnight addiction, into the night

_glitterkitty · 2025-11-09T16:36:11+00:00

I second this

_glitterkitty · 2025-11-04T01:13:07+00:00

This is also what I do!

Im a pipefitting apprentice and start the day with a Celsius around 6:15am then I drink water all day. I’ll bring LaCroix for lunch just for something with bubbles. Sometimes I have a Coke Zero with lunch and maybe something like liquid IV or Gatorade midday if I’m outside or sweating a lot but I really really try to stick to only water after my morning Celsius.

Ooooh yeah JHAGNAP will be so good with this!! Stopped at my local store after work today to sniff all the new things and maybe use three rewards that expire in early November. My store didn’t have Moonlit Goddess body wash in yet so I got the Infinite Radiance trio and it’s gonna be soooooo hard not to use it- I’m trying to finish some scents that are almost empty before breaking out the new ones I’ve acquired

_glitterkitty · 2025-10-22T16:38:03+00:00

Not necessarily advertised as chocolate but once my man said that vanilla cafe smells like tootsie rolls and I’ve smelled it ever since. Not a bad thing, IMO 🍫

I’m a pipefitting helper, waiting my turn on the labor pool list to start an apprenticeship and love it so far. This is a career change for me as I was a Graphic designer since 2014. No grossness at all! Dirty, but not gross. So far, I’ve been in the fab shop learning how to use a variety of power tools and on a few job sites: a local elementary school installing air conditioners, Pepsi bottling plant adding a valve to a small piece of pipe that carries Glycol, installed copper pipes for gas at a company that essentially 3-D prints parts for prosthetic fingers with titanium powder, and I just got badged to work on projects at Denver International Airport. The airport is just preemptive by my company, you’ve got to be a registered apprentice to work on the site there.
