No by locals you mean Unions right. Well to my understanding they most of the time don't hire rig welders all they are looking for most of the time is either iron workers or single hand welders. I know the steel industry is slow right now well at least here in California it is. Some companies try to low ball me by offering 45 an hour LOL with a rig come on and then on top of that supply them the wire. worst case scenario for now I'm just going have to look for a single hand job at least for a few months till things start picking up again but we will see thanks for the advise thought.
