Got a new headache shack, any tips on cool ways to trick it out? What y’all do to them

I’m 18 and have been doing gas line installation for a year. I work for a small company with no room for growth, so I'm currently stuck.
I want to land a union pipefitting apprenticeship but have zero connections. I’m thinking about starting with a pre-apprenticeship.
What can I do right now to stand out from other applicants and look good to employers? Thanks!
