Any union is going to support all other unions, even if it works against their own best interests.
Is your friend IBEW? It takes five years of training and apprenticeship to become an IBEW electrician. The National Electrical Contractor's Union is a “Co-union” of the IBEW. They share the same retirement and health trust fund coverage. That the worker and contractor belong to the same union keeps a lot of the friction out of the picture. It's more of a guild than a union, at least until they joined up with the afl-cio, which I think was a mistake.
