You just need to act really stupid but not be maliciously incompetent. If you just act really dumb and dense but you don't break things and you show up on time and seem like you're trying they're probably gonna let you down easy. Still might get fired though, it's a gamble.

one of the last times i got laid off as an apprentice was when some idiot from out of town that worked for the company i was working for on a high profile job told me to keep working. me and my journeyman were busting our asses hauling shit into the work area and were taking a short break. i told the guy i dont have to because i'm just a stupid apprentice and i was taking a break. they laid me off a couple hours later. it was a pretty good day. fuck polyphase electric.

Go to your training coordinator and explain your situation. They can sometimes let you quit

You can quit, just need to find someone else to take you on as an apprentice and read the contract about the penalties for quitting because I'm going to assume you signed a contract when becoming an apprentice.

Yes the Penalty for quitting is kicked out of apprenticeship

Is this through a union shop? In Canada you can just take your experience and find someone else to indenture you.
Correct_Afternoon_12@reddit (OP)
Yes. Here in usa we are not allowed to solicit our own work in this union
ihadagoodone@reddit
could you find a non union journeyman/shop to hire you?
Correct_Afternoon_12@reddit (OP)
You never go back to non union

Have the company make record breaking profits, then layoffs will follow.
