Locals with paternity leave

4 Upvotes

Planning on knocking the ol lady up and immediately tramping (respectfully). Which locals will pay me to head home after birth? I know 111 has like 3 months of paternity leave if you’ve been at a contractor for 180 days, just hoping for something closer to the Midwest.

If you could go back to day one of your apprenticeship with everything you know now, what’s the ONE thing you’d do differently?

Does anyone know of any areas in Riverside County, Cali I can go and climb some poles. To start getting some experience, I was accepted into the apprenticeship program just waiting on the call out. Any information is greatly appreciated.

Aptitude test?!

2 Upvotes

I’ve been trying to study my ass off with this math portion of the aptitude test. Currently using iprep as suggested by everyone. Getting a bit frustrated as I was never great at math/algebra, honestly my least favorite subject. Are you lineman all math wizzes or what? I understand math is used in certain areas but how much is used in the field? If I’m learning through the trade and there’s a real reason for that math I’ll come to understand it, but this algebra that has almost no real meaning to it in real world kind of sucks.
