7 TIPS to Prepare for an Electrical Apprenticeship

DAVID LIST

I'm a true blue aussie from the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria.
I love my job as an Electrician and still work for a large Infrastructure company but found myself wanting more.
So I ventured into e-commerce, website building, Amazon FBA, YouTube, Property, Print on Demand Crypto and NFTs and much more. I love technology and how it affects our lives. So much so, I made a YouTube channel about it.
I honestly get the most joy out of helping people, so hit me up on the socials and you might just learn a thing or two.

About tools:
I buy the cheap tools first. Those "all in one" kits are fine. When a tool breaks I buy the next tier higher. This is how I found out really quickly what were the tools I really needed and if I had to use a tool "off brand" (I just had to pry that thing apart and the flat head screwdriver is the only thing that would fit) I don't feel bad about breaking the cheap tool.

Ask questions :D we have adage about this :D
Ask and look dumb for a minute, rather then be dumb for whole life :D :D :D
