... bricklayers union. The only problem is I'm going to be hired as what is called a masons tender which is basically the bottom of the barrel which I don't have a problem with if I can work my way up to actually laying bricks or any other trades. I just don't want to have to be a masons tender for my entire career there so after getting my books is it possible to later switch to a PCC or any other trade so I'm not stuck helping tradesmen and laboring, or is it better if I tell the job before I start I don't want to be a masons tender and would rather wait until a position opens up for a trade? Like I said I really don't mind working my way up if that's possible I just don't know yet and I go to get my books next week so I'm trying to figure out what to do before then
