So many of these types of videos have the stiffest, awkward dude in front of the camera. Understandable as they’re tradesmen not actors, but this dude has a comfortable presence. It’s refreshing.
@Jack Mehoff I know, right? Personally, I've lost interest in this career path now. I thought part of becoming an electrician was being made into an electronic person. My hopes and dreams have died.
They are secretly proud of you. (Take it from a grown up kid who had her dad do the same thing about his job.) Keep up the good work, tradesmen! You keep North America running! We love your work!
I've never had a day where i said "f*ck this job" i always wake up with a smile and a positive attitude to go to work i love this job even tho it is one of the most dangerous trades its the best one out there.
Im debating if i wanna be an electrician or not. But I don’t know if it’s worth the risk. Like, What are the chances of something bad happing yo know ?
@@weepylover6345 pretty low mate, if you are with a decent a company then only the senior electricians will do the dangerous or live working, until others are capable and feel comfortable doing so.
Good guy got his safety glasses on. So easy to get poked in the eye wiring up all day or just drilling or the idiot next to you hurts you. I lost an eye as an infant due to trauma and its tough to go through life with an artificial eye.
Im always that over cautious person. I have one eye aswell. Lost one at an early age due to retina cancer. I run heavy equipment with no issues the only setback Ive noticed is my depth perception is slightly impaired. I think it all depends on when you lose it. I lost mine when I was 2 or 3 so I hardly even remember it but if you lost it when your 2 eyed vision is already established (ie. when your in your 20's) im sure its alot harder. Im just thankful to have vision at all. My dad is totally blind from the same type of cancer.
@@ClutchTFS Thanks Riley. I lost my eye at around 2 also. I guess its easier than losing it as an adult I guess. Still sucks as we will never know what its like to have 2 eye vision. has not slowed me down though and I bet it has not slowed you down either. Check this out: I ended up getting a stroke in my eye from high blood pressure. I was very unaware I was getting very high blood pressure during high exertion events and that caused a eye stroke which is not uncommon at all. Met so many people this has happened to. if your in your late 50's or 60's please check your blood pressure at least twice a day and after a high exertion event like busting your ass on a job to get a BP baseline. I found a really good retinologist and have been on eye injections of vaston for about 9 months now. Will have to take injections for the rest of my life. I suspect you and me are at very high risk of an eye stroke as all the blood pressure to the optic nerve now goes to one eye only.Thought for sure I was going to go blind from it. Wish someone had warned me. All i can say is after a lifetime of one eye that sucked enough I am not going to live blind at the end of it. Thanks again nice talking to you!
@@PlymouthVT Wow thats terrible! Thank you for bringing it up though, definitely something for me to be on the lookout for. I'm 26. I used to go back to sick kids in Toronto every couple years to get my eyes/hearing checked but haven't been there in years. I think its about time I book another appointment. Wish you the best, it was good talking, take care!
@@ClutchTFS Sorry bro I thought you were much older. You should be ok but like I said I suspect there's a blood flow issue that you and me have with only 1 eye so try to mitigate any super power lifts. But next time your at the eye doctor tell him my story and you'll hear alot of his story's none of them good for us mono vision dudes. And he will than take out a little prism to look at the back of your retina. A regular ophthalmic exam does not see the back of the eye. The Retina. That takes special scanning equipment. All you have to do at the doctor visit is say I have floaters and they will take you down the hall to the Retina Dept to look at your eye. Keep an eye on that over the years...sure wish someone had warned me. Nice talking to you and Take care !
Awesome video .. I'm a journeyman electrician myself and it's a great trade and is absolutely rewarding . So gratifying when you wire something and it works properly .. or you fix something a that very small percentage of people can fix

@@jalisco3591 electrician. From my experience from others and research there's a lot of welders already. I have a friend who's in his early 20s who already has eye vision problems because of welding he told me he regrets it and will probably look into something else. He said it's bad too bc the amount of fumes and stuff u breathe in as well is bad for your lungs. Plumbing and electrical are the 2 that draw the most interest for me.
Started as a labourer in UK and worked my way up towards getting a job as a groundworker. Turned that into a supervisory role and got stressed & bored with it.

employers dont care for the pre employment stuff as it creates bad habbits... start as a labour worker. they just want esentially tool and site safety experience... within a year of any labourer worker you should be able to acquire the skills needed to start.
To the people wondering about becoming an electrician. Go to school for it, esepecially if you want to really know what youre doing out on the field. Apprentices are only installers. Journeyman is where you want to be but you need to understand magnetism, induction, a bit of trigonometry, how to find the correct AWG, power factor correction and ALOT more. As a journeyman not only are you in a position of leadership, you are the go to person for answers at a job site. if an apprentice comes up to ask you how electricity works you have to be able to explain in simplicity how it works. Voltage is a force that comes from your source Amps is the flow of current Ohms is your resistance within the circuit Watts is your power (there is also true power) be able to explain the difference between a parallel circuit, series circuit, and combination circuit and how to troubleshoot each one. understand that the sum of all voltage drops is equal to my total voltage in a series circuit (ohms law). There is alot more to it. school is the only real way to become a confident electrician. Anyone can install stuff but can you do the brain work to figure out what went wrong?? GO TO SCHOOL.
The pay is pretty good, it all depends on the output that you give to be honest. If you finished your trade school found your first job and you’re boss didn’t like your output you’ll be the sweeper of the group but if you’re hardworking, clean and professional you’ll most probably be making 80 grand per year and you never know you could even launch your own business where you could make 6 figure income ! And the end it really depends on you.
Don't worry, you studied engineering to learn the theory and to train yourself to be a critical thinker. Now that you finished your study, you have to learn again the real world application of the theory you studied and its not that hard if you used to be self learner. Learning from the basic is the best way to grow your knowledge.
Dude.... don't it for the money, do it because you enjoy it. The reason why people loves Skill trades is because they're here to do it for the money and finding shortcuts which is a mindset of a Loser.

HI, thanks for the video, it is very interesting. . I'm an English teacher in Argentina and I am preparing this video for my students in a Technical Highschool. They are learning technical vocabulary, I have a little trouble understanding some of the terms here, and I haven't found a plausible meaning on google. For example, what is 'rigging cable', or 'ruffing and BX' (The guy says that and that's what subtitles say to) I would really appreciate if you had time answering.
Hello! BX (bauxite) is trade slang for armoured aluminium cable AC 90. It is a wire protected with exterior metallic wrapping . Rouhg in stage (early stage)is when elecreical conductors and boxes installled in designated locations but not terminated or connected to electrical devices.

I hope this note is read. I need some serious advice. I moved to Ontario from Dubai and am 39 years old. I have an MBA in marketing and some solid international experience but the industry is changing and it's not a coveted line of work that it once was for me, plus not easy cracking to Toronto market.

Hey man I'm in a similar boat. 24, just graduated with a degree in finance from a university here in Toronto. Did a corporate job internship a few years back.. don't really see myself going back to that life. Now looking to pivot into the trades myself I get that you're older with more education and work experience, so switching might be tougher for you than it is for someone like me. But it's refreshing to see that I'm not the only business grad looking to switch Anyway man good luck, stay in touch, maybe we can do this together (I'm also based in Toronto)
Hell no. Go to a community college and spend 1/8 of that. That's what I did, I started at 15 as a green apprentice and now I'm at 23 after 2 years. In another 2 years I'll be a journeyman and my compant starts journeyman at 32 per hour. I'm non-union btw.
Is it illegal to record people doing this I’m an electrician n I wanna start recording my day .. can I get in trouble or I need to let people kno first .. I mostly work on construction sites
2 questions... 1. I dropped out of high school and now I’m 32. If I learn the algebra and learn some basics through TH-cam what’s the chances somebody gives me a shot? 2. Where do you guys poo? Silly question but just curious

Go to school for it, esepecially if you want to really know what youre doing out on the field. Apprentices are only installers.

Is it worth it honestly ? I’m 20 years young & I’m looking to take on a good trade with good pay.
If you're willing to put in the hours to learn the trade and become a competent tradesman, then yes, its extremely worth it.
The pay is pretty good, it all depends on the output that you give to be honest. If you finished your trade school found your first job and you’re boss didn’t like your output you’ll be the sweeper of the group but if you’re hardworking, clean and professional you’ll most probably be making 80 grand per year and you never know you could even launch your own business where you could make 6 figure income !

Hey man I'm in a similar boat. 24, just graduated with a degree in finance from a university here in Toronto. Did a corporate job internship a few years back.. don't really see myself going back to that life. Now looking to pivot into the trades myself
I get that you're older with more education and work experience, so switching might be tougher for you than it is for someone like me. But it's refreshing to see that I'm not the only business grad looking to switch
Anyway man good luck, stay in touch, maybe we can do this together (I'm also based in Toronto)
Does being an electrician in Edmonton require a degree
Im a female electrician.Yall have it easier than us here in 🇹🇹
Is spending 25k for trade school for this worth it or not?
We can't really give you an answer because there are so many factors. It is a tight job market, but there are always opportunities.
It's def. Worth it.allot of money to be made and it's fun. You learn so much. Go for it if u have it! 👍
Fuck no! Find a company that will put you through school while you work.
Join IBEW
Hell no. Go to a community college and spend 1/8 of that. That's what I did, I started at 15 as a green apprentice and now I'm at 23 after 2 years. In another 2 years I'll be a journeyman and my compant starts journeyman at 32 per hour. I'm non-union btw.
