You’re a Professional

You’re a professional.That’s what my journeyman told me while I was wiring a panel, and it hit me harder than I expected. If this is your full-time trade, there shouldn’t be “just in case” shortcuts—you should know what you’re doing. From that wake-up call, I drift into rants about soggy Egg McMuffins, failed lightning-bolt science ideas, weird sayings like “half-assed” vs. “half-asked,” and even my grandma’s rules about movies and swearing. It’s a mix of lessons, laughs, and the random thoughts bouncing around in my head.
