Started my career with nwjatc apprenticeship in 1989. Still running line crews and now my old apprentice buddy is an instructor there. Lots of years in the trade all over the world. My boy will be going through the apprenticeship in the northwest as well. He will be another good local 77 hand some day!

Got in apprenticeship in ‘08. Im with the contractors in Long Island New York. Ibew paid me to train. Making 69$ an hour . As of April 28th I’m at 85k for the year. Last year I grossed 239k year before that we had a big hurricane. Grossed 283k. That doesn’t count vacation checks, money put in my annuity by my employer plus my fully paid benefits. Yeah fuck college fuck line school. Damn proud of my trade. I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

I work lineman in Russia 5 years. We repair line 220-500.000 volt. My salary is 500 dollars right now. and it would be better if I didn’t know how much my colleagues in the States get because it makes me sick

I work in Cali. Utility worker is 34 an hour I was a first step apprentice making 47 an hour. I've had weeks in storm or fire making 9700 a week before taxes. As a lineman you can make 18K a week before taxes. Pretty damn good gig if you ask me... Incredible benefits and a union. What more could you ask for

I'm a 7th year Carpenter. 27 Years old finally realized I'm going back to school today. I finally applied to DCTC in the midwest to do Linemen school. Sick of busting my tail knowing my trade, knowing my tools, have all this knowledge but making dick with zero benefits. LETS GO!
