Me too! I don't drive a service truck anymore and I'm grateful for that. I run the electrical crew at a small university in Texas. I'll be here until I retire. Great benefits including lots of paid time off to hunt and very good pay for the trade!
Same here. I've been with the same company for 31 years. Maximum pay and vacation! I work in Facilities in the installation/construction department. We have 2 main sub stations with 25K volts incoming and It gets stepped down to 4160V. So I work with 4160V and down. We have 20 unit subs that step down 4160V to 480V and we distribute480V to all of our production lines. We also step down 480V to 208/120V. I like it because our plant is always changing and my jobs are different all the time. We have many projects and I'm one of the project leaders.
You guys are so lucky. That's one of the fields that I've always wished I could be in. Unfortunately, they tend to frown on colorblind electricians for some reason.
