Was let go from my last job as an electronics technician and was thinking about going to school to become an electrician. I think some of my education/experience could transfer over. I'm hoping to hear from some electricians about the day to day tasks, sort of the "good, bad, and ugly" of the job.
How long are you an apprentice before being eligable to advance to journeyman? To master? What salaries can be expected for apprentices? Journeymen? Masters?

Has anyone "started over" later in life (I'm 38). By the time I'm an experienced journeyman I could be in my mid-forties.

Oh well, just trying to figure out what I want to do.

Thanks for any advice,

Joel B.
