Welcome back! It’s been a minute but I’m coming in hot with a Saturday full day in my life. These are what my Saturday looks like when my schedule is jam packed with commercial work on the weekdays, we save residential for Saturdays! 🤟 follow me through 3 different jobs. The day killed me but the paydays coming so it’s worth it! I worked from 9-330ish! Stay tuned for more coming soon.

Would you please make a video explaining your journey of becoming an electrician? I love your videos!! Also, if a women wants to start a career in the trades how would you start? What advice would you give?

You could probably get hired as an apprentice, otherwise you could try a 2yr trade school. It's really not that difficult to get into, all you need is a little ambition, oh and maybe pretty thick skin because the trades are pretty well dominated by men and well, we can be a bit much at times 🤷🏻‍♂️ good luck to you

The first she did was apply herself to learning something.

@b0sscake 6 ай бұрын

grab tool list and have thick skin. It's a pretty easy job that pays crazy good. Pretty much no heavy lifting if you do residential or pipe bending is a minimum.

Lex your cleanup and clean work habits are impressive. It’s hard to find trades, especially sparkies who clean up after themselves. The guy who taught me required that we scrapped and cleaned as we went so at the end of the day there was almost nothing to do to leave a pristine jobsite.

@r3mii619 6 ай бұрын

When I did took up electrical out teacher would deduct marks for an unclean area. Then I worked for this one company and all that went out the window. Picked up bad habits, now I’m generally a clean person, but working around people that don’t clean up made it annoying.

Last job I had. We'd do these mandatory safety tests each month. One was electric basics, featuring GFI's and spark arrestor at the breaker box. I would miss up because I referred to a GFI instead of how the computer wanted it as GFCI! Always laugh at this, because working with old school electricians it Ground Fault Interrupters, not Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters. Also it's normally at the lead receptacle switch box in old installation method. Not at the breaker box!

When doing ceiling lighting jobs do you advise where to put them or the customer(architect)?

only one hour late is pretty good... even my second customer of the days gets a 3hour arrival window with a text when I'm in route.

It’s a different look and feel watching a learning from a professional woman woman handling electrical work than watching How-To videos of men manhandling their tools. 😅 Your video editing skills too, on point. I feel inspired other than oblivious of what I don’t know of commercial and residential electrical work. 😅 I’m getting there. The wealth of knowledge of these KZfaq videos from your channel makes me feel smart but I just need to put it into practice. 🥴😅😌 Awesome work. It’s like another form of ASMR or something.
