Can you see any reason why I shouldn’t pursue this

My secondary schooling finishes in about eight months and soon we will be taking to a career advisor. Unlike most of my friends I’m not going to continue my education, after lots of thought and talking to people I’ve decided to become an apprentice electrician. More and more girls are getting into trades these days and that would definitely suit me better than an office job

No, not at all. If that's what you're into then do it, because if you force yourself to do education you don't want to do, you'll fucking hate it. You'll just go nuts, but a apprenticeship I mean it'll suck at times but it's hands on.

@Allelse I used to do lots of stuff with my dad in his workshop and loved it. I have been helping my guardians friend running wires around his house and data cable for his security cameras and it been loads of fun

@ChloeYoung Well I'm in a career I don't like and it sucks, so if you can get paid to do something you're interested in, go for it.

@Allelse My friend said he should have got into robotics, then he could have sat on his fat ass and drank coffee all day while it did his job for him 😂
