i never used to either, i was making 26.80 for a long time, ill be making good money here shortly, but im new and need to prove myself beforte the raises come.... you dont know much, you dont get paid much.. thats how it goes.

im learning the trade quick, and hvac will put me into the money as dave said.

I'm not a rich kid. I paid for my car, and I paid for everything done to it. with money I earned in summer jobs(where I made more then 11 bucks an hour). Fortunately I use the car to get to school, so its only right that my parents pay for the insurance and gas. When I'm finished school-I expect that luxury to run out, which won't really matter, since by then I'll be apprenticing to be a underwater welder and should have plenty of money.

i was thinking about working on the pipe line welding like Steve.

MikeJ-2009

OMG, you work "on the pipe". You're a bad, bad man.

Spenser

yea, i'd get rid of the gsr too if I made 10 bucks an hour, infact, i'd get rid of myself if I made 10 bucks an hour.

hotrex? you make 10 now? so don't typicaly if you are apprenticing you make half of what you'd normaly make (if you are even apprenticing you hurt sack) so that means in a couple years, you'll take home what? 20 bucks an hour?
