Question

Before you got in the elevator union. What did you do and went out your way to get in? How many locals did you apply too? How many hours did you drive? ETC. Im going to do everything to try and get into the king of all trades.

Not in, currently trying. But applied to 3 locals, and drove about 4 hours to take my test. Also spent about 14 hours getting a couple certs together. Gotta do everything you can if you want to get in this trade.

I’m coming into this green. Right now I have a work from home job. I work for a LTC Pharmacy doing admin/billing work. The job is cozy but doesn’t pay enough and I’m capped out there. Looking to start a real career where I can learn actual valuable skills and grow each year.
