How do i get into commercial ??? I got my ET card.

@DailyElectrician

find a commercial company

As an electrician’s apprentice i was fortunate enough to work with excellent mentors. My Journeymen teachers taught me that the more knowledge of skills that they could pass on to me would ultimately benefit them and our team in the end. As a result I adopted that edict when training others below me.

Happy Resurrection Sunday! I enjoy your videos. Keep em up! BTW, did the state shut your work down? The guys down here in FL are still working.

Question when you had to make some deliveries did you use ur own car or did they give u a truck or van? Also when u got back did most job sites have parking or was that a whole other hassle. Lastly did u have to park cuz I can drive and all I just can’t park vans Especially without cameras

How did it go?

My second week in, and my journeyman is so rough on me. He’s threatening to throw me on trimming with the slow guys. Every time i try to take my time and do it right, and analyze things before im done he see’s that and always makes me move out the way or get off the ladder . I am trying very hard, but it is bringing me alot of emotional stress working with someone who doesn’t like training. I show up early, i can wire up boxes by my self, but struggle with pulling anything up high. Not sure which route to go or which way to strap. I ask questions and he’s often criticizing me within my answer. I’m scared that im not cut out for this. Other apprentices tell me im doing great, but i feel like such an inconvenience.

Being a good teacher is a skill on its own. Don't let someone's lack of patience discourage you. If you have any major questions ask your master. Bend your knees and power through the first year.

I’m curious what your hourly rate was as an apprentice early on and then what it scaled to. I make 100k a year and am thinking of switching careers. Really struggling to figure out if I can make the same kind of money after putting in several years as an electrician after the apprenticeship. Thoughts? Maybe a video on pay from when you started to what your pay is now and what you can potentially make as a long term electrician.

Been in the industry for while now. You won’t make shit the first 2 years, after the 3rd year you’re gonna make 50k 4th year your gonna make 60k-80k after you test out (getting your Journeyman)you can make $130k if you travel you can easily make $210k.
