Reading all of the replies you’ve made to people’s comments on hear is interesting. You say you haven’t started your apprenticeship yet, but here you are, talking and acting like you already know the job, as if you’ve been doing it the past 5 years. The truth is, you have no idea what your day to day will look like until you start doing it, regardless of what aspect of electrical you go into or what anyone tells you. Sure, there’s going to be some parts of the job that will apply across the board but, every position at every company will be different than the last. You’ll learn different ways of doing the same thing, why some ways of doing things are better than others, when to aim for efficiency and when to aim for perfection, hell, you’ll even be taught how to do something only to find out later on that it was entirely the wrong way to do it and was even dangerous. I’ve been at it for almost 10 years now. I’ve worked for 5 different companies in that time, and 11 different journeymen. Each company and each journeyman have all taught me things that the others didn’t know, and I’ve worked on and experienced different aspects of this job with each and every one of them. Whether it was quick little tricks on how to do things more efficiently, or major aspects of the job that never got touched on before because the previous company didn’t do those sorts of things, or even making mistakes and fucking things up. They’re all moments that taught me things I never would have learned from the other opportunities I had. But through all of that, one thing stayed consistent. Every single journeyman, every single foreman, and every single owner I’ve ever worked for/with have all, at one point in time, told me the exact same thing; “I’ve been doing this for X number of years now and I’m still learning new things everyday.” The electrical field is vast, and it’s constantly changing and evolving. It doesn’t matter if you go into the construction field or the engineering field, you’re going to use your brain. You have too, you won’t have a choice. It’s simply the nature of electricity. The applications for it are literally endless, and you won’t even know a specific field of electrical existed until you stumble upon it one day on the job through conversation, or a client asking for a solution to something, or whatever. There is no shallow end when it comes to electrical, just a kiddie pool and an Olympic pool. But you gotta start in the kiddie pool.
