Default Kind of a important question regarding ranking
I recently became a MH-1 (helper/apprentice) for Local 3. I'm 19. I was absorbed into Local 3 through a company. What I would like to know is, how long will it take me to become a 'A' rank. From what I heard, for those absorbed into the Union through a company it takes 8 years, and they don't go to labor school. Please correct me if any information I just told you is inaccurate. The reason I'm asking this is because I don't want to do this to realize I can't move up.

Don't just sit on your butt, be proactive. Bug your BA to get you in the next available class. Ask if you can test up because of the way you got in. Keep asking questions.
