I passed my interview back in June and got put on a waiting list for Lineman Apprenticeship Orientation and Climb school. I'm roughly number 60 on list to start. Are they currently holding orientation classes, just wondering if anybody could figure how long of wait it could be to start. I'm in the cal-nev program.

Get ahold of the program director/asst. director and ask how many guys are on the out-of-work list and how much work they've got goin' on. That should help.

I've been teetering from the upper 20's to low 30's since May. They've been holding climbing classes but they've only been pulling in 10-15 each time. Then the next month's interviews set you back again. Don't sit around and wait for them to call. I did hear that they wont be interviewing again until Jan 09. If there's work and they hold climbing classes then our chances are better.
