[@Aquatic_Amigo]

suavè thank you brotha

[@Aquatic_Amigo]

suavè hey but I herd there’s not alot of work and you stay without work for long time is the true

[@SymboIik]

Dope That’s the things about unions. You can’t work for other companies not involved with the union so .. sometimes there is downtime and you gotta learn how to save money for those rainy days. I heard recently it’s been good. At least in California there is work.

[@Aquatic_Amigo]

suavè o ok I see .. thanks for the great info I really appreciate it brotha .... but can you still collect unemployment?

[@northvanman1283]

[@nickrandolph8418]

Yes. The enclosed cabs will have AC and heat. As long as it’s all in working order.
