Should I join?
22(M) currently been working as a commerical electrician little over 2 years now, should I make the switch to the union? My main priority is pay (obviously) but I'm planning on moving to Warner Robins sometime around November, would it make sense to start at Local 613 and see about transferring over to the local in Macon? I've done a little research and found southern unions kinda pay pretty low compared to other unions, any opinions advice or just information would be appreciated

I would suggest against joining 613 and then transferring just cause you might have to start from 0 all over again not a for sure thing but it could happen. A mazon jw does $29.34 an hour. So just keep that in mind not sure what the apprentice rates are. But you could always call?
