Union apprenticeship sign-ups near Knoxville after 7 years as an electrician's helper

A local apprenticeship programme is taking applicants for the next intake. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. Classes are in the evening and work is during the day. What do you wish you had known?

Visit the training centre in person if you can. Seeing the classrooms helped me decide.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
