    Since there's so much confusion about the broom thing: electricians are notoriously messy. Wiring tends to leave behind a lot of clipped ends and stripped insulation. Since hourly rates for electrical work are high, most electricians don't clean up this debris, trusting that the customer will want someone cheaper to do janitorial work. Hence the mythos that electricians are afraid of brooms.

I looked down at my left hand. I'd been carrying my tape measure around with me for the last fifteen minutes.😅

      While I've pretty much have NEVER hired contractors, I understand that hiring contractors is NEEDED and EXPENSIVE at times. AND while I understand that there are SOME "sleezy" ones out there, whenever I hear about people trying to jip contractors, it enrages me!
      If you cant afford them, don't HIRE them! If you need to anyways, ASK if they can reduce the bill a little. (if they do? COMPLETELY pay them right that instant!) If they can't? Ask if you can set up a "payment plan" or something.
      My understanding is, IF you are legitimately TRYING to pay them, many are willing to "work with you".
      But DON'T try to "screw someone over" AFTER they FINISHED the job!
      These people do CRUCIAL, Back-breaking work! Treat them with a little respect.

      @@sharkdentures3247 The old rule of thumb is pay them right away for any materials they bill you for but hold off on paying the labor until the job is done. Some contractors will take on more jobs than they can really handle and may leave your job halfway done to get something higher priority finished. And if you've already paid in advance for the job you are very low priority.

    From what I see on the electrician reddit, Florida is one of the worst places to work. Also if the apprentice messed up the wiring it's the journeyman that gets the blame not the apprentice.

    Glad to see the yawn. I know him working night shift is why he yawns but still glad to see him on screen. Gives the night workers hope. Hope that they make it big enough not to work night anymore. So what's the broom thing aboot? *Edit* Just saw the note from @aniyn

      Electrical work tends to leave alot of small debris behind. People are also generally not fond of paying someone $90 an hour to push a broom around, so many electricians don't clean up after themselves. So the joke is that they're allergic to sweeping, or just don't know what is is or how to do it.

    All I know is that it seems like Sarah is too enthusiastic about getting up on the pole. What's her character's career path again?

    I fix copiers so I do a lot of work with a screw driver and a volt meter. I can confirm 100% the screw driver being lost in your tool bag is accurate.
