My brother in law tells me a lineman with PSO after about 5 years and little bit overtime will be in the 6 figures. I think he said around 40 an hour. They pay like 27-28 an hour right out of school. I believe OSU Okmulgee has a school? Don’t hold me to it though. The school is only 2 years.

OSU-IT in Okmulgee does indeed have an excellent high voltage program. Their graduates receive very comprehensive training and come out of school with currently in-demand skills.

There is a shortage of trades. Plumbing seems to be a good field right now. The national starting pay is actually a buck or two more than hvac or electrical.
If you want more of a white collar job, IT or business information.
