He needs hours under a master to be able to take the Journeyman test for his license most likely. Plumbers and electricians here in Michigan need documented hours to be able to take the tests. I assume its the same in most states.

I think in one of my rambles here that I went the state license route. You needed X number of hours to be able to take the test. When I met that amount I applied. I was rejected as saying I didn't demonstrate the amount of hours. This was in the days of paper checks and I always kept my stubs. I copied my stubs, 3 to a page, and sent them back as proof and was allowed to take the test.
I was only asking as it's different everywhere. The system I just described above is different now in NC, as they went with a nationwide testing system that I had to take in TN (who did not reciprocate with NC at the time and do now). Frankly as with most things in life, it didn't mean you were a good electrician, it just meant you were good at taking a test.

I should be eligible about Oct of 2026.
Between the form the master fills out and proof of income it should go as smoothly.

He'll never let you forget that either though. Get that journeyman and make you a journey elsewhere unless he forks over your worth.

You don't wear one full time? Hell I was office staff and I had to wear HH , one of those stupid hi vis jackets, safety glasses , and gloves when I was on a site. Oh and we had to wear boots, but that I didn't mind. Love me some Wolverine electrical rated 'steel toe (non metallic) boots.

Nah, mostly shorts, tennis shoes, and safety glasses. Only bust out the boots if we fucking with 2 1/2+ EMT, even then...
