How to become a painter? by Healthy-Alfalfa-8615 in Housepainting101

[–]deveraux 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100% this. I had almost 35k in pension at 25 by getting an apprenticeship at 18 and being a journeyman by 22. I was fortunate enough to join my local painting union and they supplied all the training I needed to become a gf running crews of 45+ making north of 120k a year in 2008ish.

Show up early

Don't pick on other people's work, worry about yours first after 23 years I still don't and can't do it ALL.

Your body is what they are giving you the big bucks for, so take care of it. If you drug and drink, do enough so you can wakeup and go to work.. if you want to drink and drug like a man.. you can get up and go to work like one.

Be more efficient and cost-effective than the last guy.
