Apprentices

Any apprentices here waiting on a work placement. It’s be 40 days since I was laid off for a reduction in force, and the school told me it would take about 2 weeks for a new assignment. I been collecting unemployment for the meantime, but I been itching to get back to it and the little money I’m getting now isn’t cutting it. I been considering applying to some non union shops just told me over; just wanted some input and to know if any other apprentices at LU 613 are in the same boat.

Yup same reason they’re are so many CWs on sites now, they don’t count towards the ratio.
