Jer has unlocked the Electrician class.

Ten things to remember when you start your first day as an electrician:

-Pack water. Doesn't matter if you want it or not, you'll NEED it.
-Above rule goes for nuts, oatmeal, anything that'll last in your stomach for more than half an hour.
-Learn where the light bulbs and ladders are.
-Even if you're working inside, bring sunscreen.
-Learn how to like power tools. Learn how to use them, too.
-Don't get your gloves at Target.
-Bring a notebook, because you'll be taking a lot of notes. Keep in mind that even if your father is the supervisor, you will not be warned to do this.
-Don't believe people when they talk about what the job site is like. The Mexicans actually do their jobs.
-Learn people skills, as it is the only way to make sure your shit isn't buried behind boxes.
-Don't bring a watch, cell phone, or anything that'll tell you the time. This'll make those long days seem much, MUCH shorter.

monday, work
