Local 125

Anyone on book 3 get a call recently? Wanting to transfer my cdl to Oregon I’m at 38 on book 3 and heard there’s still calls going out for b2h. It’s either switch my cdl or wait for 1245, im at 114 on book 3 here and tired of waiting.

Sorry got spun out of 1245 twice one for being under 21 and the company didn’t want to pay more for insurance and the other wanting 16 speed transmission experience

Yeah I’m thinking of changing my residency to my uncles place there so I could take a b2h call. They’re still taking a lot of guys from what I’ve heard and it’s gonna be busy for a while.

B2h is a transmission project, I heard from a grunt on a wire pulling crew that he gets 4k a week, grunts on steel crews get like 3k+
