life on the road

[chaz33]

I got a question . you lineman that travel how do you all make the family life work? the reason i ask is because i'm thinkin about going to my local union hall to sign up and get more information about it . and i got a wife and 2 year old and here in north carolina there are hardly no union workers . so i would have travel a hell of long ways to go to work for a union contractor. 12 years 2nd class and don't even make $20.00 hr and have to pay $128.00 insureance that is 80/20 . i'm just looking to make a better life for me and the family. thank for the info
