What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  This is an ever changing and evolving field...no one person could ever begin to know it all...and I certainly DON'T claim to.I strive to stay as updated as possible in the electrical field...and even with the decades of experience...I'm STILL learning something new from time to time.
What do you like about this subject?  Electrical work helps "keep you on your toes"...literally - rarely a dull moment in this field. Having trained almost 200 electricians over the decades...I can tell you this work is certainly NOT for everyone. I have "no fear" of electricity...but I sure DO respect it....you simply have to - one mistake is ALL it takes.
