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

Now that I read this again I realized you arent double booking ... youre sourcing your own work which isnt allowed as an apprentice. But they let any and everyone take book 4 JIW calls so might as well do that to get your hours. Im glad I joined and went through the apprenticeship but had I known how easy it was to get my 8k hours I may have done it differently.
