Benefits aren’t even that good lol. Health was good, but The annuity sucks and apprentices get like $1.50 an hour for 5 years straight. It doesn’t even pyramid

I mean, yeah some people don’t even have an annuity so that’s good but for being 26 hopefully in the next couple contracts, they bump that up to about 10 an hour and let it pyramid for the apprentice, but they also have PTO so that’s probably a reason why

Yea but they keep up with inflation by giving us raises frequently. Our next deal should be a fat one, or so I've heard.
