@electriciansedge: Electricians working data centers and chip plants: what's your plan after? Get that money while they're paying good. But when those projects wrap up, a lot of you are going back to regular wages, and if you've been living beyond your means it won't feel good. Same thing happened to guys in the oil field when it slowed down. So do you go out on your own? Or go back to working for someone else at almost half of what you make now? Drop your plan in the comments. Talk to you guys later. #electrician #datacenter #electricianlife #electricalcontractor #makingmoney

78 to 80 data centers being built in Texas right now with 173 to 248+ being planned. Okay so realistically building 1 at the Llano project is near full completion and it’s been over a year since they broke ground. There’s 2, 3 and 4 in various phases 2 being at least another year from now as we speak to completion realistically. Buildings 5 and 6 have steal erected… it’s like a year per building so far. There’s building 7 and 8 plus three more huge warehouses that haven’t even broke ground. Looking forward to the matador project which is going to be the biggest data center in the world. The expected completion of the underground work will take five years! Six Llano projects will fit into the size of the Matador….

Alot of these comments miss the point of the question with the short sighted mindset youre trying to get guys to reflect on. Lots of assuming and blind faith in corporate promises apparently.

the smart ones will get jobs working for the data centers as part of their maintenance crews. some of those data centers pay their maintenance crews stupid money similar to what they pay the construction crews

That’s why you gotta keep your monthly expenses and living expenses as what you make on a 40 hour no incentive. And invest everything else or save. IBEW For The Win!

After that I’ll have my mortgage paid off and be fine working for my regular wage! Potentially making 20k/month is hard to pass up. Get it while we can, they’re gonna get built regardless so save as much money and build for the future. Stay financially smart.

As for someone who bought a truck when the oil field was booming and had to settle for scraps don’t buy that expensive truck also try and get some decent insurance and a 401k you’ll forgive yourself o. The future.
