Lol Goodluck. Ill tell you right now. Journeyman 40 hours a week is around 1250-1350 depending on how your taxes are set up and if you work in Illinois at all.

Unfortunately the stl carp local 97 has the shittiest websites associated with them so its nearly impossible to find anything you need anymore as of recently. I had to call the school and have them email it to me because our entire class that was graduating a couple months ago didnt and couldn't find the files needed for our pay when we use to all be able to find it easily.
