We lost the amount of old annual wage and gained bad insurance.. My attempt failed because of corporate games. Things became better when the Sittons bought the terminal. But corporate succeeded in firing the shop employeesand leasing it after their attempt.. Finding bogus reasons to fire through surveillance of the shop. So please put me on your list. I'm pro Union.

    I worked as a glazier for 4 years. Really enjoyed being up high on a swing-stage, installing glass, weather-sealing the buildings. (I climbed trees as a kid, I don't mind heights.) The job was so different from the others I had. Most of the time it's just you and your partner working outdoors all day, and the boss can't look over your shoulder! It's uncomfortable in the winter (I live in Canada) but the summer and fall are great. You get stronger, learn new skills, make new friends, and get paid very well -- because it's dangerous work. Keeps you sharp!

    22 years union BAC journeyman marble mason, journeyman setter and red circle journeyman finisher. This fuckin trade sucks and i wouldnt even wish this on my enemy. Its a dying trade and if you like filling up your gas tank to travel stupid insane far and be away from your family....this is the job for you. Your hands get fucked up, you get water developing in the knees, your back constantly aches, you come home with concrete boogers from breathing all that shit in, youre tired as fuck like an old man daily, you get wrist problems from using trowels over the years and the retirement sucks. And if youre a helper, which you will be...then youre double fucked. Youre considered a slave and your 4 setters and the foreman will slave drive every single day. It doesnt matter how fit you think you are, this job puts you to the test. And joining the union is the same as nonunion. Same shit. The only difference is the pay, nothing more and its not worth it. Granted, i raised a family with this career but i (by far) dont recommend this trade for consideration. If youre young, go to college, because when youre older like me in your 40s....itll be hard to get out. Im telling you ftom experience. And a final note, there is no job security. You MIGHT last a year or 2 with a company, but nowadays...youll likely be laid off after a job is completed UNLESS youre a good helper and dont mind the pay and bullshit....or you suck enough dick as a setter. And 90% of companies just want quantity over quality so they can come back later and remodel....and its flooded with immigrants. So, Pepe and Carlito will do the job for $15 an hour, rather than pay a union guy $30+ an hour. Not even the union can stop this. Little by little the union has been getting weaker because of this and wages have been lowered because companies are saying theyre not gonna pay top union wages for anything less than 50000sq ft but anything more than 50000sq ft theyll pay top wage. So once again....youre fucked by the company and union because the union agreed and the companies purposely do small sections at a time, less than 50000sq ft so they dont have to pay max wages. Rinse and repeat. So dont do it guys. Be smart follow your dream. Dont do this trade and waste your life. Ide rather be happy having a job starting at the bottom doing something i love, rather than be at the top getting paid decent for something im miserable about. Took me years to leave this trade and ide never go back to this shit ever again. Last but not least, the people you work with are the lowest form of dirtbags. BELIEVE ME. Theres a handful of good people, of course....but 95% of the time youll be working with pure dirtbags. Everyones pissed they have to do this shit for a living....so how do you think theyll treat you? Take my advice....DONT DO IT. And remember the word "Grout". Youll learn to hate this word indefinitely. I warned you

      Thanks for the advice man but from what you wrote I learned that some people probably have a different experience from you. But enough about your story, I’m just gonna get straight to the point, I’m a 16 year old, Gen Z teen and I’m currently working as a tile settler. My experience years was 6yrs since the age of 11, your right about the regrets but over the years I’ve learned great skills from other previous workers that are not civilians but immigrants. I learned that most of them don’t care about the quantity but the quality of the job that makes other contractors notice them for what they can do. Glad that I learned that from the best teachers (Aka workers) that truly care about the job. I’ve been in the environment of commercial/residential workers and Trust me pal, there is a big DIFFERENCE! Union workers just follow orders with less care but the money at a glance🤷🏽‍♂️. I don’t work for a company nor a union but it’s a job off the books as a tile settler with people who care about the job. My years of a helper is almost over but starting as a mechanical with experience💪🏽 overall not everybody’s experience is the same🤷🏽‍♂️ I’d probably choose this than any other job…🤷🏽‍♂️ but it’s good to admit your experience was. Thank you for your story and god bless you and your family🙏🏽 take care brotha 👌🏽
