I'm a month away from completing my union electrician apprenticeship. It's been a lot of work, and there is plenty more to come. But after five years of working towards something, it'll be nice to reach a big milestone.

Congrats! I rememeber finishing mine and it was a lot of work. Just remember to take care of your body and especially your ears! My body has started to hurt in my wrists from all marrets and wire twisting

Yeah very good advice. I see guys in their 50s that have never stretched or eaten too well. Even walking looks painful for them. Not much we can do about our wrists though!
