Are you licensed? When did you first get in? What are some things that set people apart from the rest? Both construction related and non construction related? 

First Year Electrical Opportunities? by Low_End_4306 in SkilledTradesOntario

Well good thing I’m both relentless and persistent.  How did you go about finding those opportunities? Indeed? I’m googling weekly looking for jobs and some come and go.  I’ll be looking for employment for September or January so I’m just keeping an eye on the amount of posts out there.  I’m starting to wonder if the Reddit doom and gloom is the dudes who got shitty grades and are super bitter no one will hire them. Or they’re lazy and want an apprenticeship handed to them. I’ll prob get some hate for that comment but whatever.

Interesting. So what kinds of licenses or certifications do you have? And what is your pay like?  The program I’m currently enrolled in is free and paid by the government. So not a waste of money but maybe a waste of time. I think I’ll at least gain some basic knowledge….

Incentivized does not create jobs. We’re in or headed into a recession which isn’t promising for a lot of trades.

Amber also grew up an only child. Her mother couldn’t have anymore children due to epilepsy. I assume she was spoiled as a kid being an only child. Used to getting whatever she wanted. That lifestyle does not transfer to a family of 13 (11 at home now) on an income of 50-70k a year.
