I think the local union here is around $33 or so depending on what you're running. Starting apprenticeship wages are 65% of Journeyman from 0-1000 hours, increasing by 5% every 1,000 hours until reaching 95% at 6,000 hours.

It's about 23 bucks an hour for common operator with Local 428, more for crane operators and finish blade.
