Discuss Bane...how did college go today? in the Electrician Courses : Electrical Quals area at ElectriciansForums.net

Your right your very lucky to have an offer of a full time apprenticeship at the age of 29, I know I dont know you, but I served my time at the ge of 20 and all though you do get stick sometimes for being a girl, it fade out really quickly once you show them you know what your talking about!!! All though the 2330 apprenticeship is mainly aimed at upto the age of 25, dont let that bother you its the fastest and easiest way of becoming qualified!! Good luck

Thanks Nicola. Erm...I'm not a girl :D

Shakey, you know I'll always offer you advice and a shoulder to cry on!

Everybody else, thanks again! I have to sign off now but I'll update you all soon!
 
Slight update.

Remember the interview I went to regarding repairs of mobility scooter? The one I didn't like the feeling of?

Well, was offered the job last night via e-mail! Very surprised as thought the interview went pretty cr*p. Offered me a good rate too (seeing as I have no experience).

On the work side of things. It's going well. At the moment we're rewiring an old farm (200yrs+) then after that I'll be doing laods of various stuff to include (eventually) panel building and HV testing!

All/any relevant courses paid by company so... looks good!

Note: And the guy I work with waffles!
(But he does have 40yrs experience and is a really nice chappie)
