On today's episode we are going to go over local 440s inside agreement. I would like to mention for those that don't know, each locals inside agreement will be different in certain ways, so when you go work in a different jurisdiction it's good practice to get a copy of their agreement and read it. With that being said Good morning and thank you gentleman for being here.

Our guest today completed the 5 year Inside Wireman Apprenticeship, earned the title Journeyman Inside Wireman, went on to serve our local as an organizer, assistant Business Manager, business manager, and eventually went on to the International Office. Everybody please welcome Jim Rush to the podcast. Welcome Jim.

This is a special episode i decided to do in honor of Labor Day and for those that came before and after us. Also for the men and women that have dedicated or gave their life for the working conditions that I have today.

We hear from 4th year Apprentice David Cornejo and his path going thru the Apprenticeship so far, then getting into a motorcycle accident, his recovery, and getting back into the field and working, all while being a husband and a father. Proud of you my brother.

In this episode we get to hear from my Mother and what the last 30 years have been like being married to an IBEW Traveler. As my father would say the ups and downs and the smiles and frowns.

Double and I discuss his journey as an Officer in the Union, and it was definitely a great and must listen to conversation.
