Hey. I'm an electrician...I'm a 1st Year apprentice i'm registered too...great trade to be in. I got my 1st year apprenticeship after I came out of High School.

I'm in  a program called  O.Y.A.P. it's the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program. it helps students in high school get into trades. also there's no need to go to college for a whole semester...it' like a 1 month course or something and the government pays for most of your intuition

and during when you're in the OYAP in Highschool you do co-op placements at places of your trade..I was with an electrical company called Evergreen: Powersolutions..they did Windmill solar conventional and pretty much anything electrical related...they did

Two years of Computer Specialist (with advanced Routing and Networking) before I joined the military. Now, if I can put that knowledge to use more than once in a blue-moon, that'll help me out.

Dont worry college isnt that scary if your a social person, my only problem is staying on task, my gpa has suffered for this and now its only a 3.11
Dont even want to mention mine in highschool it wus terrible I wus always goofin with my friends who were as brite as a 3 watt.

conduit is fun to work with...makes wiring so much easier o.o

and Praise The Lord for dropped ceilings!! gotta love them being an electrician!!

I've worked in residential..i've done a whole re-wiring of a house...I did wiring at a campsite in cabins...the camp was on an island so we took a boat with all our supplies...we stayed in other cabins during the 3 day expediion we worked there..plus free camp meals...heh..the cabins we stayed in...had been there  since the 40's there were phone numbers and everything written on the ceilings...all of girls too o.O
working there was fun...saw lots of animals...squirrels, chipmunks, foxes.. various birds. and several other critters

then...we worked at a different campsite...we were doing some underground wiring...we used wire that was wrapped around 5 ft diameter spools....that was a chore getting into place...bloody hot too...

I"ve also worked at a dairy where they made goats cheese...we had to wear hair ents and stuff when we were working in the areas where they actually made the cheese...we got free samples out of it :P that project went on for about a year maybe? with a few different electrical opntractors there...

I've done residential, commercial, industrial and....there was one other type...

i'cve ran almost any wire you can think of in almost any possible way...PVC conduit... EMT tubing....wire track...i've done quite a bit o.o


I worked with a bunch of great guys though...fun to be with. Oen was even a Star Wars geek like me o.o he did the best Yoda impression XD

yea..that's the hard part...i'm a 1st year apprentice...and everyone around me is looking for a 2nd or 3rd year apprentice... :/

i'm not currently working as an electrician though...I'm currently working at a CNC machine router shop....there we build well CNC machines...they're basically programmed robots that will cut out holes....carve...engrave...cut out...etc...

our standard 5x10 machine is about $50,000...and we sent out about 4 of them the past 3 weeks
