Default Calling all Pipefitters

Hey guys,

About a week ago I got my 4th class certificate but from the looks of it the market has become flooded with new engineers and it is almost impossible now to get a job in that field. So I started researching some other trades and think that pipefitting may be a possible plan B if I dont get my PE job but just a few questions about it. How strong of a mathematical ability do you need to have in order to be a good pipefitter? How labour intensive is the job compared to other trades? And lastly, are there any companies or unions right now that are hiring first year pipefitters even with the economy as it is?
