Here’s hoping the sheet metal jobs pick up for unions, and their apprentices, in the Houston area real soon!!

Mooo...said the Bull

There is plenty of skilled union labor. There are just too many unscrupulous contractors who exploit workers and do not pay a fair wage. Get rid of these crooks and there won’t be a shortage.

Absolutely a shortness on SKILLED labor. Just because they have people on the out of work list, doesn’t mean they’re skilled We had two mega site jobs that the local loaded up on staffing and it seems just gave them journeyman cards. Now that those projects are done. Those same workers wanting top dollar and not knowing how to do anything. I’ve given multiple people shots and none of them worked out. Still I load shop off of out of work list but they aren’t SKILLED and don’t have it.

Yes. Lots of workers but no jobs.

You guy’s location merrville indinda area

Not like unions create jobs…they just benefit from others creating them.

Complete lack of skilled workers in Georgia and North Carolina

False

Plenty of Trained UNION WORKERS that get good Wages and Benefits!! To many scab contractors that exploit most Workers!! FACT!

The illegal aliens have no problem finding a construction job; but keep voting for the politicians that are protecting them.

The labor shortage is for labor that will work for peanuts . AKA non union rats that would suck a mile of cock to work for less .
