Thoroughly enjoying my training as
an apprentice electrician. Presently
working for Christenson Electric. I ’ ve
been given ample opportunity to be ex­
posed to different aspects of the trade.
Like anything in this life, we must
take advantage o f all opportunities at our
disposal. Youth and lack o f exposure
need not mean inability, but only inex­
perience. The key to success is getting
that experience, getting that exposure,
and apprentice programs are the finest
avenue available.
To those in school, meet the chal­
lenge o f Math and Science. Excel in your
reading and comprehension.
