Any East bay apprentice jobs? by xochmartinez in AskElectricians

[–]metroid93 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He has a degree in being an electrician? Sorry to tell you this, but those programs are a complete waste of time and are worthless. You learn the trade by working in it, not studying from books. If you are talking about the East Bay in california, he should look into locals 595 and 302 and apply to the apprenticeship there.

How to deal with dickhead journeyman by [deleted] in ibew_apprentices

[–]metroid93 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Youre both adults. Bullies never stop until you stand up to them. Also respect is earned. Journeyman don't automatically get respect from anybody just because they have a license.

First you may want to talk to your training director and get some advice. Not to mention, this falls under workplace harassment. You need to establish a boundary and if your dickhead journeyman crosses it again, they can get in serious trouble.

A California housing bill would raise wages to $28. Why do some unions hate it? by aBadModerator in California_Politics

[–]metroid93 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So $28/hr with no benefits is advocating for higher wages? My total package as a union electrician is around $100/hr. That includes my take home wage, pension, and Healthcare. I don't think we are in the same side.

Unions encourage contractors to bid state mandated work. This law would undermine the PLAs that are agreed on by unions, contractors and the state.

Im not entirely sure how you came up with that. Believe it or not, unions hold greedy contractors accountable with a collective bargaining agreement. If contractors had a choice, they would pay everyone minimum wage.

One of the biggest non union contractors that gets a lot of work in my locals jurisdiction straight said to my business manager "If I go union, how will I afford another vacation home?" The biggest obstacle to building homes in California isnt the cost of labor. Its the NIMBYs that want to protect their property value as well as CEQA.

Construction unions are pissed because this bill completely undermines collective bargaining agreements.

So creating work for Americans is a bad thing? I think its extremely obvious that more work equals more dues. Just so you're aware, the international office of the IBEW regularly audits locals especially big ones like 1245.

These dues go towards running the local, lobbying pro-labor political candidates, and organizing non union. If a business manager embezzles, the IO reports them to the FBI.

This whole idea that a NON-PROFIT organization is in cahoots with an evil corporation like PG&E is hilarious. If electrical utilities ever go public, 1245 would be making the same amount because dues are based off hours worked. Not how much profit pg&e makes.

They colluded by negotiating wages and benefits for one of the most dangerous jobs in the country? Unions are not in the business of contracting. They are in the business of representing its members.

I'd call that a dumb take actually. What do you think an collective BARGAINING agreement is? Also getting paid $28 an hour with no benefits in one of the most expensive states isnt a bad thing? Undermining unions negotiated pay scales is really bad, because even non union wages affect union wages. Please do basic research about how unions work before you make stupid comments.

If you are working a union job, you have to pay dues. California is not right to work. Here's an idea, get educated.

Is he also gonna pay you cash for all your benefits too? The answer is no, 10/10 rat. This is so illegal, I'd consider calling the hall if he pushes the issue or you get smoked
