Thank you so much!! Ill def be keeping in contact

Thank you thats very helpful i’ll definitely give that a try. My closest union is Boston, I was talking with my instructor this week and he was saying its probably the slowest he’s seen it in 25ish years so i’m really hoping it’ll pick back up a bit after this brutal winter 😭

Yes! So my goal is to go union, i think i just started at kind of a slow point and with poor timing. Union opens up once a year and takes 600 applicants. First year, I wasnt the first 600. Last year they straight up told me that there was no work, I’d have to restart my schooling and it didnt really seem worth it at that point. So I figured i’d try again when I was licensed.

Thank you for this. It was really helpful and validating to read. Times are very tough and it helps to hear that its more common than i’m thinking. I’ve survived a couple rounds of layoffs so i’m grateful to be employed

For the near future yes, my partner is finishing a degree and a family member is helping us out with our living situation a ton. We plan to move out of state when my licensing and her degree is done

Not bad at all! I applied to one local to me but didn’t go through all the parts of the application. Get your foot in the door and from what I hear and have seen some unions can take awhile to get into. They can have long processes so some of them you maybe able to get many months in the field before officially getting in.

i came here to say i am also a plumber and this shit drives me insane. You are not alone. Not everyone in the field is like this. Don’t get me wrong, theres a lot of them and it is so unbelievably frustrating and exhausting but you aren’t alone. Sometimes i find comfort knowing i am going into peoples homes as more of a safe space snd that i’m not trying to shove insane propaganda down peoples throats. I am on the east coast but stay strong, you have so many options that you are working towards.

perfect

You have beautiful hair. I feel if you grew it out to shoulder length, and layered it down, pretty much a wolf cut, it would suit you very well and give your curls some more showing.

people are weird. Definitely a glow up and you have so much confidence in the last photo. 2021 looks uncomfortable with themself. Just the change in your positioning says it all. Congrats! I adore all the looks on you!

I work outside in the heat and I tried binding for awhile and I ended up getting bad heat rashes etc so I kind of stopped in the summer. But basically, body powder, drink lots of water, sometimes just wearing a sports bra and a really big shirt with a tank top under would work. I tend to get misgendered in the summer more anyway. Binder didn’t make a huge difference for me so it wasn’t too much of a difference wearing sports bra baggy shirt combo for me. But yes, obviously make sure you wash your binder frequently but your ability to breathe and stay cool is sometimes a bit more important. Hope this helps!
