Saw an ad awhile back for a welding job. Wanted someone with 2-3 years experience welding TIG, MIG, and aluminum. Starting pay $18/hr
That's one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. Helpers make at least that much now.

Apprentices start at a higher wage than $18. The best part of construction unions, they allow you a 4 year paid apprenticeship.
we've got some renovations going on in my building, its interesting to watch the dynamics between engineers, journeymen and apprentices.
