Yesterday a friend of mine bought me lunch so that I could sign his union experience documents. He worked for me a few years ago putting in trim and flooring. He also did some framing and concrete work. His new Union job starts out at 65K for the first two years then moves up to 85K. With overtime some make over 100K per year.

His job title is concrete finisher and the project he is on is expected to last 20 years. I do not think he even has a high school diploma. Full retirement and great benefits. Another friend recently got hired with the railroad. A similar deal. Great wages and benefits. Little training and education required.
