S2Ep11 - So you think you’re a lineman
Рет қаралды 6,378
Жыл бұрынAfter a critical final exam, it’s the morning of graduation and SLCT’s main campus has a celebratory feel. It’s time for students to show hard-earned strength to loved ones. Have all the sacrifices been worth it?

The problem with these schools is they breed this mindset that these kids/guys are lineman after finishing and it’s just so god damn wrong. You paid 25k to learn how to climb. Save your money. Go to your local union hall and signs the books as a grunt/flagger/truck driver and apply to the apprenticeship and wait. Its great that they get their CDL’s and a good base knowledge of climbing clean poles without 4 foot of comms or anything realistic on the poles, but these schools are not accredited in most strong union states. There are plenty of non union opportunies leaving these schools, and unfortunately a lot of these guys go rat down south and think they just made it when really they were just ill informed.

It’s very difficult to get an apprenticeship through a utility if you don’t go to one of these schools or get a degree in electrical construction, at least from who I’ve talked to. That’s the route I’m taking. What do you mean by “accredited school”

As someone that’s been in the industry for over twenty years I’m willing to bet over 95%.
