Exactly, and we don't go around shaming our customers over it. Never badmouth your customer, either directly or indirectly. Your mates on the other hand, are fair game. :)

And your point that in this case the customer partially funded the video is spot on. Probably some newbie trying to drum up business.


When I do watch an electrician's video (especially a UK based one), it's going to be a David Savery one, just for the comedic content. Brings back that 70's vibe. :)


And where I live in Tennessee, you can buy yourself a license rather than earn it. The state is so anti-worker that they would rather see houses burn down than have a construction worker financially succeed.

We have the LLE license here (limits the holder to a $25K job), so two or three trips to Home Depot and you are fully qualified. Helps keep those $12 an hour "electricians" busy.

Stay safe brother. :)
