If I had a youngster today, I'd advise them to enter a union
apprenticeship program for either plumbing or electrical. No matter
where these society goes, it is going to want indoor plumbing and
electricity.

There's a chance the nuke plant near us might be expanded. If so, it
will mean several years of very high paying work for union plumbers and
electricians, among others. We're talking about $100,000+ a year,
family-supporting jobs for hardworking men and women who have the skills
to do the necessary critical work.

I had a plumber quote me $465 to change the trap under my mothers sink.
I think he is making more than they make at the nuke plant. Of
course, I didn't hire him, I did it myself.

Yeah, well, if you weren't such an a**hole, the plumber might have
charged $125.

The nuke plant plumbers are mostly steamfitters.
It takes a lot more education, training, and skill to become a
steamfitter than it does to become a college graduate.

Funny you should mention that.

The local Building Trades Council had bid on the new Killingly High
School - a $64 million dollar state-of-the-art building.

While the town Building Committee was willing to negotiate a contract
for the iron workers, carpenters and painters, they did not want to
hire union plumbers, electricians or masons.

You might want to ask why. The answer is pretty simple. When the
building upgrade for the Intermediate school was completed, the
plumbing and electrical failed code and one wall was out of plumb -
not the architect's fault either - shoddy workmanship and it was late
opening - by six months.

Compared to the Plainfield High school - another state-of-the-art
building which was built with non-Union labor. Came in under budget,
on time and in move in condition. Won some kind of international
award to boot. Passed state and local inspections in record time.

The interesting thing was the Plainfield High school was bigger, more
complex and cost 1/3 less than the high school they are planning in
Killingly.

Go figure.

Not looking to pick a fight - just stating facts.

Only the facts.

It's nice knowing good plumbers. One of my kids buddies is a plumber.
Had to replace a faulty disposal and some leaking pipes under the
sink. He came over, wham, bam, thank you sir - hour later, done and
it only cost me $75 for his time.

He also chased a drain problem for me from the house to the main on
the street - $125 bucks for an hours work with a drain weasel.

I called the county, after wondering why the break couldn't just as well be

The guy said it was one of the oldest and most used plumber scams going. I
replaced the sump pump and saved several thousand dollars.

It's nonsense, plain and simple.

I have a couple of tenants who are union - one is a painter and the
other is a mason.

When they find union work, it's fine, but to hear them tell it, it's
not worth the effort or the expense. The unions take the yearly dues
and they never hear from the business agents or the stewards.

They have to take non-union jobs because they aren't getting any work
from the unions and when they do get work, it's usually in another
state or over two hours away from home. Sure, they are making
thirty/thirty five bucks an hour, but living expenses, gas, etc they
aren't making more than $12/14 an hour.

In fact, the painter quit and started his own business a couple of
years ago - he's got six people working for him now and making enough
money to buy the house he's been living in for the past two years -
cash. The mason sub-contracts out to residential and commercial
contractors and is also starting to make enough money to start saving.
Neither one is ever going back to the union.

The only thing keeping unions alive is the government. If the
government stopped insisting on unions, the labor movement would die
in a short period of time.

There's a chance the nuke plant near us might be expanded. If so, it will

family-supporting jobs for hardworking men and women who have the skills

I had a plumber quote me $465 to change the trap under my mothers sink. I
think he is making more than they make at the nuke plant. Of course, I
didn't hire him, I did it myself.


It takes 5 minutes to change a trap. Why did you even bother calling a
plumber?

BTW, no offense but I do not believe you received a $465 quote to change a
trap. No way.

steamfitter than it does to become a college graduate.
Harry - give it up - please, you are making an ass of yourself.

Do you know where Harry went to college? Hell, it probably takes the Navy
about 16 weeks to train one.


I suspect neither of you know what a steamfitter does. He doesn't
replace sewage traps.

Happy World Toilet Day...

The last time I checked, the journeyman steamfitter apprenticeship program
required the completion of 8000 hours of study and supervised work.

If I had a youngster today, I'd advise them to enter a union
apprenticeship program for either plumbing or electrical. No matter where
these society goes, it is going to want indoor plumbing and electricity.

There's a chance the nuke plant near us might be expanded. If so, it will
mean several years of very high paying work for union plumbers and
electricians, among others. We're talking about $100,000+ a year,
family-supporting jobs for hardworking men and women who have the skills
to do the necessary critical work.


Harold, do you really mean to say that you wouldn't advise your child to
carry on the Yale tradition? At Yale, he could possibly be a classmate of a
future president, just like you!

Happy World Toilet Day...

The local union plumbers wanted several thousand to replace the 'broken'
water main in front of my house. They diagnosed this because the sump pump
* had stopped working due, in their words, to 'too much work*'.

Oh my...I guess the c*ap flies heavy at your place...


Don, do you know what a sump is?

BTW, how's the mom doing? A good friend of mine was just diagnosed with
lung cancer. Damn shame. He's 75.

Hope all is well.

I know what a steam/pipe fitter does.

It's a five year apprentice ship program - just like a freakin'
plumber.

The only difference is steam/high pressure welding.
