John’s Answer

Get into a trade union! I figure someone will tell you the obvious ones, so here’s some of the less know jobs in construction.
- Safety Subcontractor, responsible for making sure people wear PPE and follow safety rules.
- Fire Proofing, involves praying thick coating onto structural supports, and caulking/mudding
- Fire Alarm technician. It’s like an office job, but you take your laptop into the jobsite and troubleshoot alarm systems
-Scaffolding Carpenter. You build a safe place to work for other trades to do their job

John recommends the following next steps:

Join United Brotherhood of Carpenters
Join International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
Google other trade unions that interest you. It’s the best way to get free training
