    I'm a journeyman cement Mason in the union here in Washington state. Great pay and great benefits. We start out at $40 an hour for journeyman. Although it is hard on the body. I have had two spinal surgeries and one weekend and bilateral hernia surgery. I have destroyed my body so if you pursue this career be sure to lift properly at all times. But it is great pay and great benefits and you can make some good friends and actually be a part of something.

      Unions today are all about special needs affirmative action and racist liberal politics and agendas Quotas for how many blacks women other “ minorities “ Union officials play golf and are mostly self entitled no skills no standards and really don’t give a shit about Safety or anything else they are All about making their own deals and way too much money for playing golf You do not want to belong to a trade union today Believe me You really think that pensions and shit are going to be around decades from now???Dream On Unions are going to dissolve and collapse before too much longer They are racist corrupt and sleazy and needs to be Broken

      Rzl dzl you're correct. It' a concrete. The difference between the two is concrete has aggregate. Cement does not. But if you were educated in the masonry field you would know a finisher finishes cement not concrete. Because that is what is left on the surface after vibrating an bull floating is done.
