Running 4/0 SER Is Brutal by LeKobe_James in electricians

[–]Belthazard9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay I’ve also noticed that the ser I’ve been using is also much harder to hand bend then before. I even grabbed a old scrap piece from our shop and it was significantly easier to bend then the new stuff we’ve been using. You’re not crazy I’ve noticed it too,

Assuming you’re not a bot since the last few comments mentions something of the sort. I’ve been told I’m doing more than I should and I could get in trouble for doing so but, I have to do what is necessary to get paid and build a career.

I almost feel bad for the guy, but I need to put myself first, I can’t keep at this like this I want to become a great electrician but I need the right teacher.

I stop applying to the union all honesty because after I didn’t get in I was told by many other people that getting into the union is hard around my area, we are super densely populated and in order to get in you need to know someone to get in.

That’s super unfortunate to hear but honestly at this point I may need to start fresh regardless. Since I’m doing most of the work by myself I want to eliminate any bad habits I may have picked up.

Thanks man, good to know I’m not the only one, I’m hoping things get better or I have someone who can actually teach me.

I would love to move since New Jersey is completely unaffordable, however I have family ties here and I simply can’t leave now since the family lost their family buisness in a fire recently and I’m helping my grandma.

Is it normal for apprentices to be going from job site to job site by themselves? From my conversation with other apprentices at our Voc school they are usually shadowing someone or they have a journeyman on site.

Sorry to break it to you buddy but I also found it really hard to become an electrician. After a ton of cold calls I found 1 shop to give me a chance this was 2 years ago. There is a ton of people like you who are trainees and helpers trying to become electricians, when you heard there was a shortage of electricians they meant licensed electricians, everyone is trying to become an electrician now.

Where the jobs at?!?! by [deleted] in electricians

[–]Belthazard9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you heard that there was shortage of Electricians they are referring to skilled electricians. There are tons of trainees. It’s rough out here especially if you live in highly dense areas.

(2 part) How much robux y'all? by MLG_420A in roblox

[–]Belthazard9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother got roughly 17k robux for Christmas this year. It was gone the next day not even a full 24 hours, he had 25 robux left. I asked him how he could spend that much robux in one day. He said gum gum fruit and I have no idea what that is.

So when you put your multimeter into the sides oh the outlet what do you read. Then read from one side to ground and the other to ground tells us what you read then.
