Summary

Currently a maintenance apprentice at weg in bluffton IN, I had 2 1/2 years floor time at utz as a level 1 mechanic before going to weg but they didn't have a apprenticeship program so I went to weg instead to get my journeymans card. they split the trades at weg so electricians do most of the electrical. I know how to use multimeter to check for live power/bad fuses
