    Anyone??

    Gents,
    This is probably one of the best opportunities a young person can have wanting to go into the trades. The benefits alone at the journeymen level typically are more in dollars than most mechanics make these days. Try and pass this info on. Bump!

    Thank You!

    Robert O'Connor/NJ

    ps: Foreman/journeymen pay scale around $45 an hour
    with benefits & pension totalling over $100,000 a year
    Best education available anywhere in this country.

    We are

    bidding some projects here in MA where the journeyman rate is $57.60 per hour.

    Although an open shop, and proud of it, our apprentices and journeymen benefit when we bid prevailing rate projects through the Davis Bacon law.

    It has become a trade where you can make a very good living for yourself and family and once licensed can start your own business if that is one of your goals.

    Union affiliation or open shop you have an excellent opportunity in the trades.

    Jack
