Not if they don't personally have the skill set. Upskilling is a not thing unions love to do.

You don't think construction or electrician unions have the skillset to dig trenches and lay wire?

no they don't, not saying they couldn't learn, they would much rather sit in their trucks watching over the ditch diggers, then work on the lines. wich is what they do now.

Slimy, maybe?? I am recalling all the heating and air conditioning technicians who refused my calls to quote on installing a heat pump. I mean, it's heating but different, sooo...signs point to an indifference to learning something different
