Why is it so hard to get into plumbing apprenticeship in bc without doing the foundations course. I’ve been looking for a plumbing apprenticeship position for months now. I don’t know weather to just do the foundations course or keep looking.

Because the foundations course probably gives you the basics of plumbing. If you think you know the basics then it proves to whoever hires you that you actually know the basics. 🤷

It’s most likely a pre-qualifier. If you’re not willing to do the pre-learning, how do they know you’re going to be willing to learn on the job?

Have you tried posting in some of your local Facebook groups? Someone in there might know of an apprenticeship you can do. It is definitely worth a shot.

Do you have any peers that have been through it?

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
