Yeah not so much, my trade is heavily unionized so we make some of the highest wages on most construction projects

There aren’t really that many in the state that I know about. The ones I do know of are at the old macys and I have not been to those yet.

Oh yeah, between the hourly rate and my benefits package I take home a good chunk of change. The overtime rate alone is usually classified as double time so there is that as well. It also helps that I am a member of the Union that has a agreement that most of the big companies in the U.S. are signatories on.

I am on the repair team for the company that services the elevator in the article and was sent to assess the damage of the incident. The door landed on the elevator that was two floors below. These door are designed to be extremely hard to dislodge and for it to fall into the hoist way is not easy to do. This was no accident, this was done intentionally and is a very dangerous situation that these students caused. Also we found a case of white claws on top of the cab so the kids have terrible taste as well as judgement

IUEC is the union of elevator workers, if you go on their website they will show you when the recruiting is happening. It does take some time to get in but once you are in it is well worth it
