My partner is in an apprenticeship program for electrical and plumbing. We're in a city so large, with so many tradespeople, that a given field has multiple unions within the same metro area. What you're describing is not at all anyone's experience in this area of the U.S.

Must be a state by state thing. My partner recently moved to trades from another career, and it's correct that you get put on a list of apprenticeship positions, but they employ you to actively do work the entire time.

And the amount of "omg I stimmed in this public place!" That are then videos of them just being dicks and pretending that this "uncontrollable movement" knocked something over.
And the amount of patently fake DID tiktoks, ugh. I moved over to YouTube shorts mostly for other reasons but there are way less of those things going on there.

They managed to escalate all the way to God's grumpy sister.
And then went even further, making the next enemy: The British.
"Hope the night is manageable." I work in a field where people aren't sure how to wish me a good night at work.
