Joining My Local
So I have been a service plumber for roughly 6-7 years non union. Iโve got about a year in new build so I understand a lot of concepts but still have sort of a learning curve. Originally when I applied they told me I would have to come in as a 4th year due to my lack of commercial experience, which I was fine with. After 2 months they called me back and told me I am coming in as a Journeymen, so I went and got my drug test done. I say all this to get advice from anyone who may have a similar experience. I am very confident in what I can do but I also know I have a lot to learn on the new build side of things. Is there anyway I can also take continued education classes in the union? I want the transition to be as smooth as possible. I understand I am coming from the non union side of things so Iโm unsure of what to expect. Honestly this is all new for me so any advice would be awesome. ๐๐๐๐ ๏ธ๐ ๏ธ
