ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area What type of work would you be doing?

If your weren't electrician what type of work do you think you would be doing?

Diesel mechanic, preferably Mercedes Benz.

I'd still be bouncing around various jobs, being under-utilised.

Porn Star

No, really I'd probably work in my Dads company as a maufactures rep.

Elevator Mechanic. I like mechanical and electtical equipment. I also have taken a company sponsered millwright class.

PGA Tour professional..........only in my dreams.

Architecht

and my name would be Art Vandeliegh.

Greeter - when I got into this work, it was all I could find. 17 years old and without grade 12, my teachers predicted gloom.

30 years ago, half the electricians didn't finish high school. Now, the educators have decided that complete high school is a requirement. After reducing the pool of potential tradespeople by half, I hear many complaints about it being difficult to find a good electrician. So, what is the maximum IQ to become a teacher?

A bum on skid row, or even worse...A plumber

out of HS I wanted to be a physical theripist, or a draftsman or architect....but more than likely, if a wasn't an electrician now, I'd be stuck working at the plastics factory where I once worked.
