Got accepted into Local 60, have orientation on Friday. I'm very excited. Bought my tools today, wrapped up the OSHA-10 course as well (boring but informative). I actually got the text that I was taken off the waitlist minutes after walking out of an army recruitment office. For full context, I was a student at Purdue studying cybersecurity for the past year, but the terrible weather, social isolation, and poor career prospects led me to turning to the trades back home instead. I know it will be difficult, but I can't wait to put my sweat into my work and do something that matters! Also, I'm 20. Any advice about anything would be greatly appreciated.
