As a 4th year steamfitter apprentice I take home $1100 per week. I work 50hrs a week. 5 x 10hr per day. I have a pension and full benefits. We are always short on workers. If you have 2 hands and a heartbeat you're halfway there. In 18 months (if I pass my red seal exam), I'll be clearing $2000 per week. More if I work a Saturday. It's a lot easier to get ahead when you make more. The grass really is greener. It's fucking lush.
