I asked my eldest child what he wanted to do when he was older.

He said "I want to be one of those people that put cables into people's houses".

Absolute lad. Electricians are fucking voodoo workers. I don't think he'll ever be short of work either!

edit: that said, if I had to change career tomorrow, I think I'd go into either data networking at the physical layer, or work for a telecoms firm dropping fibre and sorting telephony dramas and whatnot.

    Aww bless! It's a great trade with a lot of directions he can take it for sure. It always feels so nice to be able to show up and fix a problem in an hour or two that was driving the homeowner nuts, most people are very grateful. I love being a house surgeon ;)
