/diy/ - Do It Yourself

I got into the union apprenticeship program so I started working as a 1st year while concurrently going to school. Heres what I can tell you off hand:
>ALWAYS carry some wirenuts and electrical tape in your pockets/toolbag, journeymen will ask you for them consistently. Carrying some self tappers can't hurt too depending on what you're doing
>the quicker you git gud at bending pipe, the less you'll get treated like a burden
>also always keep a good sharpie marker on hand in your pocket
>if your journeyman doesnt mind you whipping out your phone now and then, write down your offset multipliers on a notepad app in your phone. This one helped me git gud at bending pipe

Idk what else I can tell you but if you have any questions about working out in the field as an apprentice, I can possibly answer them
