Just wanted to thank everyone who gave me job pointers and information. Looks like I finally found a place that will apprentice me. I had to take a bigger pay cut then I liked but can't be picky I guess. I start Monday and I didn't have to leave the city, so even better. Thanks again all.

Being a gasfitter was starting to look really good the way things were going. Not sure I had the math for it though. Thanks for the support.

I took a $60,000/year pay cut to start an apprenticeship but I have never regretted it. If you don't like the work you're doing anymore the money just isn't worth your happiness. You will make more money each year and options really open up once you get your ticket. Short term pain, long term gain!
