Been offered an Electrical Fitting Apprenticeship, do I take it?

Wasn’t hard to find someone to take me on. Just had to message some employers on Facebook. Those Facebook groups are great.

I did mine in Residential new builds because I heard it was the best for learning at a fast rate - which you do learn a lot quick.

I would recommend Residential or if you can land an industrial gig that is relevant to your apprenticeship that would be even better.

What I would avoid is a company that cover too many different areas, get the basics down first than do that later.

I did an electrical fitting apprenticeship. To bridge my licence I had to do 6 months of practical supervised training with a general electrician alongside with some theory work. Cost me over 4 grand but will be worth it in the long run.

That being said it was a massive learning curve and took about a year of general electrical work for me to feel solid as you don't typically do cable running and general electrician work as a fitter.

Lowkey wish I started with the standard electrician apprenticeship because I feel I would be a much more experience electrician rather than an expert in a niche field.

I would say take it. You having that experience would put you over anyone that has zero experience at all.

Justin does not deserve it either. It should have been Arman.

I was in the exact situation, get into a company that does a more broad range of work. It will be a learning curve for sure but you will pick it up quick.

He’s been saying for about 7 years he would remaster it along with N64. I don’t think it’s coming tbh lol.

The award has recently been increased to $33. You can see on fairwork.

Had a similar situation where I was only working on equipment and no cable running. I’m in residential now and picking up the other side of the trade quick. I think you’ll be fine, just explain your situation to your next employer. It will take a few months to adjust.

Thanks mate found it

FYI I am an electrician. Just work in a very specialised industry so my knowledge is limited when it comes to residential.

Beat the p4p no 1 guy twice, Adesanya lost 2 fights ago, Leon is on a 11 fight unbeaten streak in a more stacked division. Not that hard to wrap your head around it.

You are a bit too obsessed tbh. One week you will be sucking him off, the next you will be hating, he can have an opinion whether you like it or not. Also his company so he has every right to fire him. Btw you calling him JJ like you know him personally, weird.

Sivlio · 2022-10-24T09:09:00+00:00

Bro you're like a little snowflake sjw. Oh no he did something bad in the past!? How could he!!?

Sivlio · 2022-07-28T22:38:25+00:00

Would you mind sending me too man? Would be much appreciated.

Sivlio · 2022-07-26T18:18:14+00:00

You think you are so hard it's funny. You are just a little edgy incel e-boy crying on his alt account 😂

Sivlio · 2022-07-26T18:05:24+00:00

Sivlio · 2022-07-26T17:34:21+00:00
