A Day In The Life Of A Welder Helper

[@mckinleycorbitt5465]

I commented on one of your videos in October I believe. and I was taking about hiring in. I now have a job in west Texas. I turned 18 in December and I am now a pipe fitter/ welder helper I help both of them. I took welding in high school for 1.5 yr and took one collage welding semester during high school... everyone said to just be a helper to learn and I’m very glad I listened. I learn so so much more being a helper. It’s like school but 1 on 1 learning. If you are stuck in between welding school or helper. Be a helper and get payed to learn I made that choice I could still be in welding school right now but you learn so much more.

I seriously hope a lot of people get to read this comment. Thank yu for putting this on here.

Love your videos! I'm a welder/fabricator.I own a motorcycle shop were we build custom frames.It's great to see welding in a different line of work,I have a lot of respect for you guys,having to work outside and living away from home.Keep up the good work and the good videos!

[@kevinhornbuckle]

After you take the bacon out that you want for breakfast, dump in a can of great northern beans. Add some dried basil. They can simmer while you eat your breakfast. After you eat, run a hand held blender just a little over the beans and bacon. Don't puree it. Just a little. Dump it in a wide mouth thermos. There you have a hot lunch.

[@JacobSchofield]

Kevin Hornbuckle holy geez that sounds good!!! I’m in.

Good help is hard to find. Ive had the same helper for over 2 years. Dumber than a bag of hammers haha but better than the clowns before him. One lost his license and didnt tell me...truck was impounded...another was scared shitless of fire...then you have the ones ya train and all of a sudden they know more than you haha good times

[@take_that_step]

[@seanmiastkowski7634]

I'm planning on becoming a helper and I'm building a sleeper in the back seat of my truck so I can just sleep in a Walmart parking lot and save my money from that

[@JacobSchofield]

That is compltely up to you. when I was a helper i roomed with 2 other helpers and we shared a hotel room. I defenetly have slept my fair share in wal mart parking lots lol.

[@brooskii9573]

If I go to a tech school and become a certified welder would I have to a helper first or would I be a welder?

[@JacobSchofield]

brooskii you could probably go out single hand. It will just depend on what you can do.

[@codywright8846]
