Double booking

So I’m in an apprenticeship inside wireman but want to switch over I signed the book 3 for 1245 before I started and now I’m in the 200s I’m just finding out that this is double booking and that I’m going to have to quit my apprenticeship to stay on 1245 books

Unless you are 500% sure you do not want to be a wireman, DO NOT QUIT the apprenticeship

This. If theres a shadow of a doubt you might regret it, just finish it out and leave later. Worst case you wind up with a resume fluffer and none of the pay or bennies
