Thread: electrician as a career path?

For what it's worth, in this current economic climate, a trade doesn't seem like a bad career at all. You can always count on having a job as long as there's electricity.

Why not call the union and explore your options. Talk to your/your parents electrician and ask him to be completely honest with you about what to expect. Ask if he'd do it again if he had the chance.

I sometimes regret spending so much time/money in college, when I ended up (four careers and 12 years later) doing something completely different and much more satisfying. Though I realize I wouldn't be where I am if I took a different route, so...

Just remember that school will always be there if you want it. You aren't stuck either way. Take your time and enjoy the process.
