#138 Are we really stuck on this 7 to 3:30 thing?

Younger generations aren't entering the trades for about a million reasons. Everyone talks about recruiting but rarely about the reason why kids might not want to learn a trade, or work on a construction site...Maybe we need to look at the rigid work schedule? Maybe there's some wiggle room to be flexible on start times as long as the deadline is met? See what the guys are up to as ERic sets out to make Andy's skin crawl. Send us a text Send us your feedback or topic ideas over on our social channels!Eric Aune @mechanicalhub Andy Mickelson @mick_plumbNewsletter sign up: https://bit.ly/MH_email
