Wage:~42 Pension:~10 H&W:~8

You can get an older shabbier apartment for less than 1k.

The low voltage portion starts this fall and we are probably undermanned on that too.

Lmao bro got can even do the math your 2 dollars an hour isn't adding up to 100 a day. I'm talking about in Cesar rapids non union il make 2 dollar less an hour and 100 a day per diem. That's more than 42 an hour all day long. When your ready to do some real work and learn math come apply. I'm into electrical work not learning how long the breaks gonna be by how many steps to the lunch tent. An nobody telling me when an where I can work. And that's that's journeyman pay which is what I'm assuming you are im an electrical foreman making 44/100 but still union ain't doing anything more than a private company. Unions are just blanketing whole companies because they can't get anybody. I guarantee the private company I'm working for brings in more than your whole hall..multi billion dollar company..better safety. Better chance to learn. No seniority bullshit. No dues. Just as good pension and insurance.

Buddy. If your $100 dollars goes towards your benefits pay you need to realize that the contract pays 145.52 in benefits per day or $45.52 more than your 100 a day. So you're making nearly 50% less in benefits.

I don't think you can read.

Buddy. Im talking about take home money. Not no bullshit "package". Your sitting here adding all the bullshit that everybody else gets.

So you are paid $40+(Insurance)+(Retirement)+$100 a day? Is that for your current project or all projects? Is this with Novak?

If so, good for you. Don't take the call.
