apprentices these days

Are apprentices getting worse or is it just the one I've been lumbered with.
Told him to replace a batten holder in the bathroom earlier,he comes up to me half hour later saying he's done so I send him off to pop some lamps into empty house we tested earlier.
After finishing replacing various fitting in house myself go to energise and nothing happens.
Check db for power goin out of mcb that's fine and go to batten holder he put up and he's snipped away the feeds time to rip my hair out

To be fair I've worked alongside some good ones but at the same time I've also had lads with me that have left school barely being able to write their own name.

Batten holders are the normal for all the housing associations we do work for horrible I agree and just as bad as a 5ft Fluor in the kitchen
