    316. Long Range Vision Executed with Precision w/ Jacob Schofield

    Joining me this week is Jacob Schofield a returning guest to the podcast. Last time Jake was on the show, he was stepping out of the pipe welding arena and jumping head first into structural steel with his Brother Jed. Since then, Jake has been focusing on building his new Company Impact Industrial and Fabrication. In this episode we talk about how he got his business from a two man operation to having 30+ employees and a handful of contractors to perform capital construction on piping system installations. Jake provides a lot of insight into the growing pains of the business as well as the benefits of his hard work paying off.

    315. Pipe Dreams w/ Local 803 Feat. Ronnie Bowen and Jason Strickland

    315. Pipe Dreams w/ Local 803 Feat. Ronnie Bowen and Jason Strickland

    In this weeks episode, I’m on location at Local 803 with Jason Strickland and Ronnie Bowen.

    In this episode we talk about some of the opportunities available with the Plumbers and Pipefitters Union in Orlando, Florida.

    This is another pathway for those looking to get into the skilled trades.

    Apprenticeships have been around since the medieval days where people would learn a specific skill or trade over the course of several years. Apprenticeships have gone to the wayside over the years but are probably the best way to learn while you’re working in that specific industry.
