Being in the plumbing business for 47 years I can tell you that it has been lucrative.

We started out as a jobbing shop but moved into commercial, industrial and municipal work.

Our union A Plumbers make $75 an hour plus another $75 per hour paid into the union for benefits. This is for a 35 hr week.

So I try to encourage young guys that aren't sure of a career to look into the plumbing or steamfitter union.

The saying goes, "the crap in your bowl puts the food on my table" 😀
