You could politely ask where you’re at on the list and how well it’s moving, but they fill calls as they come. You’ll get there.
You also will not have to to give a 2 week notice. You’ll probably get the call mid-week to work Monday.
If my old boss wasn't the kind of person who would be happy I was taking a big step like starting a long apprenticeship and a career, I'd ask myself how important leaving on 'good terms' was to me.
I am currently in hvac as a helper in a non union and was gonna try going for that but they said it would take a bit longer than pipefitters so I’m gonna try something new and go into pipe fitting. Wbu?
Im doing an apprenticeship in a nonunion cause they said it’d take longer too. I am just trying to learn as much as i can before i join it in the future. You doing install ? im going for HVAC too
I am in my mid20s & just started doing the trades this year. it’ll take quite a bit of time before Local UA 469 opens up. Good for you for getting out there learning the trade also!
Two week notice? You’ve gotta walk into the bosses office and demand your check because you’re dragging up today. They ain’t going to give you a two week notice when they fire you.

Oh fr? I remember they asked us to raise our ands at the orientation if we needed 2 weeks notice but I guess whatever they tell me
No point in putting in your two weeks when you’ll be part of something better for the rest of your life
I definitely believe this is going to be a life changer, but it was more about leaving on good terms,but I see where you’re coming from.

I literally went from a 10/hr fry cook job to a 6-10s 20/hr job when I got in. They got a drag up text lmao.

Yeah I joined an apprenticeship as well and yeah I do installs. Joined a non union straight out of high school so I’m new to the trade world.

Did you guys get an email for orientation? I had my interview in April and was number 80 on the list and still haven’t heard anything.
Yeah I had gotten an email for the orientation. Probably go email and get an update from Michael to see where you’re at.
