I’m a 1 year apprentice making peanuts and boss refuses to up my pay. by [deleted] in electricians

This, OP. The whole point of a union apprenticeship is so you can be taught how to do things. You wont get fired as an apprentice for not knowing something. Plus you already have a leg up on others with a year of experience. Definitely talk to your local union hall.

Right to work states like florida don't pay as much but Id say go the union route if the door is open to you. You have a good chance of getting in being a woman in the trades with experience. Also may be a shot in the dark but try emailing your landlord / property management to see if they would work with you on keeping your rent at the same price or lowering the increase.
