2. #1, he has NO LICENSE

#2 He has had no training at all, union or non-union.

#3, he's not a member of the union.

He's a scab, and a pretty lowdown scab at that. At least most scab plumbers are still trained and licensed even if they aren't union!

This represents a danger to his clients. Tehre's no telling what manner of shoddy work this guy has donoe because he has nothing backing him up to say he even knows what he's doing! And shoddy plumbing work may not end up being a problem for months or even years!

4. What's the big deal?
Isn't lack of regulation a good thing?

5. Most places you need a license to do work.
No matter why your trade is, you need a license.
