Summary
I started working for a general contractor right out of high school and started taking classes to obtain my Unrestricted construction supervisors license and Hoisting engineers license. I loved construction but i wanted to try out a single trade. While working a subcontractor offered me a job with them that would double my pay, i couldn't say no. I started an apprenticeship and got my journeyman pipe fitters license.
