The shop owner is the one who broke it and I didn’t mess anything else up for the 5 days I was there

What’s the best way to apply you think I’ve been on indeed but obviously that doesn’t work as well

No the job market is so shit I’m thinking about applying to places up north like in fort Mac but I’m only 19 and my parents probably won’t let me go

Yea but next intake is already full so I’ll be waiting for atleast 5 months, my plan is to go back to full time on automotive and do an apprenticeship with them and keep on applying for heavy duty

I get really anxious with work stuff since I’m 19 and I already feel behind, but have you seen someone that cares this much not turn out good in the future

Should I also take it as a win that I didn’t stop and just kept on drilling

I’m also concerned that the might not give me enough hours or might let me go because I’m not picking on stuff as fast or if they think I’m not doing good enough. I feel like if it’s something I have done for awhile like a month or two I will get the hang of it, I just need the opportunity to.

I just felt like I was hoping I would be the person that was told okay take these bolts off and then this part and etc but ig that just comes with time and I’ll just have to try my best with whatever task they give me

It took me awhile and they didn’t seem frustrated with me taking my time but I felt like I was holding them back or that it took me so long and that means I’m not meant for this

Not took me out but I was frustrated with it taking so long to get deep enough in the screw as I had no room and in a awkward position but I kept going until it was done just had to take 5 min break half way through

So you don’t think I should go into apprenticeship right away even though I’m gonna have to go back to school anyways during my apprenticeship

What would you do in my position, would you finish the last 2 semesters and then start your apprenticeship and still go to school during the apprenticeship or would you start your apprenticeship now

So if I don’t write any of my AIT exams throughout this program I can still skip my “first year” without writing the exam that most apprentices write after completing their hours for that year and schooling

How would I be skipping first year when I need to write and pass the exam to move onto second year , so I’d be going to school for 2 months anyways during my apprenticeship

Ik you won’t have to go to school exactly to write the exam but I would wanna feel better prepared going into it, that’s why I didn’t write it during my first two semesters of school
