> Trades are an example of getting paid as a journeyman
You’re correct in that trades people do get paid while working. However, to add some nuance, I think the rate is going to depend on the trade, company, location, education completed, and work hours completed.
My brothers have their red seal and work as tradesmen. It’s 40-50% of the journeyman rate for 1st years. There are 4 years of schooling and something like 2,000 hours of work required between each level of schooling (there is a tolerance to early start / late start). Wages increase when the apprentice hits specific hours worked milestones or school level completion milestones.
This applies to BC, Canada. As I said before, this may depend on location, so it may not be the same where you are.
