Hi all.

I am 43 and currently work in the motor trade. I have done this since leaving school and have gained much experience of many aspects of the trade. I am an MoT tester and am also qualified to ATA Master Technician level and as such, most if not all of the work I do is of an electrical/CAN-BUS/diagnostic capacity.

I earn 11.50 an hour.

I would welcome your comments on whether a change of career to electrician would be a good idea.

Many thanks in advance
 
Aye, so much for the government...........getting false information from those flooding the game with undercooked meat
and poisoning the trade.
 
A lot of ex car mechanics on the rigs as you have the fault finding skills as near enough every car has different set ups.

A guy I'm working with now was a mechanic on land rigs throughout the uk and was earning up to ÂŁ100k from it,from the same background as yourself.

Worth considering.
