In the Pipefitters Union 597 in chicago.

I love it, the training for Commercial HVAC in our union is awesome. You wont get that ---- anywhere else, plus all the extras we get.

Starting is 20.74 and top is 40 and hour, some get paid over scale though. those #'s are whats on the check, your total package is alot more.
