My personal experience so far, as an Electrician Apprentice #electrician #bluecollar

Okay, guys. I'm going to tell you the reality of becoming electrician. And if you're thinking about becoming electrician or you want to pursue a blue-collar trade, I'm going to tell you my personal experiences so far being electrician. Number one is that your hands are going to get cut up. I'm a new school electrician with over a year of experience. And here I just brought out a piece of copper wire, guys. If you're afraid of getting your hands cut up a little bit or your hands dirty, this might not be the trade for you. So, you might want to consider something else. Number two is being dirty. You will come home dirty sometimes after days of work. As an electrician, you're always going to be in a unique space, whether it's a crawl space, an attic. There's going to be days where you're going to have dirty clothes. Lastly, number three is that you're going to be learning new things every day as an electrician. Every day there's new technologies coming out. Electric vehicle charging. Old school electricians might not be familiar with electric vehicle charging versus a new school electrician. And you're going to learn over time better and safe efficient ways to get certain jobs done.
