When your 5 years is up what job are you hoping to get?
in october i am probably going to work steady as a heavylift operator for one company....which means that i will not have to pick up a job, it will always be mine.
they will pay me for an extra hour each day and also, pay me an extra 'flex' day each week, for which i will not have to work.
next summer i will quit that job and go back to the hall, and exclusively take crane jobs. i will work hard to be one of the best at this, and then i hope to become employed steady....because of all the perks listed above.
i will do that for several years, and then i will probably transfer to local 94, which is the formans union.
in between all of the above i will run for business agent, and maybe dispatcher. if i can get my name out there (having won elections at both jobs) then i would really like to run for president.
