EP 145: The Long Journey To The Steam Fitters Union with Laura King

In this week's episode, Beau chats with Laura King a steam fitter with local union 475 out of Newark NJ with quite the journey to where she is at today. She talks about how she got into welding during community college and had a brief run at being a helper, learning quickly that the iron workers union wasn’t the right fit, heading out to Oklahoma to attend welding school along with a CWI course, getting a job welding pipe, then entering the steam fitters union last year.
