Bryan Crossley, Apprentice Sprinkler Fitter, 5 years
Before joining the union, I worked in the trade for two and a half years in non-union jobs. Union versus non-union is like night and day: the people, the training, the safe working conditions, and the professionalism. On the non-union jobs, you feel like the people are just filling space, putting in hours to get a paycheck. On the union jobs, you are working with professionals who care about the trade and the quality of what they are doing. It was worth it to start all over at the bottom and learn how to do it right. We get to work with upper-level guys in the trade and they share their experience, so we can really grow. I’m proud to be a union sprinkler fitter. |
