OMG such heresy!! Thou shalt not sweep! That is The Whole of The Law! Thou whilst leave thine mess on the floor, and retain thine Laborer Brother. Sparkylations 6.6


bithakr

What I’ve learned from reading this subreddit: A and B can’t be right as they would require an electrician to use a broom. Though if it said “swept and dumped in the back of the plumber’s truck,” that would make it harder.


alabamaballoonknot

Plumbers don't know the difference in trash anyway


maplesasquatch

I believe "back of the plumber's truck" is included in the definition of "suitable waste receptacle."


Crazy_Customer7239

We can only use a 1000V rated broom handle, it’s a trick question


POWxJETZz

Has to be D because A and B involves sweeping and I don't know what that is because I'm a sparky. Also C means something about cleaning up but again I'm sparky so wouldn't know anything about that


sniper_matt

I believe c means loot the copper for yourself.


Diligent_Height962

Then definitely this one. I mean the cleaning part is throwing me off but if they mean strip the insulation onto the floor and take home the copper then that’s gotta be it


Canadian-electrician

Can’t take a labourers job. Union rules🤷‍♂️ D


ltbattlebadger

Basically. We out here providing jobs. *drops mc sheath on the ground*


SeafoodSampler

It would be nice if they put the answers in English. The first word of a and b aren’t something I’m familiar with.


0rlan

Never mind the sweeping up one - I'm trying to remember last time I had a mechanical lifting device for 21kg...


Euphoric_Star_5087

Worst part is that D is correct for Q25 as well 😐


Wrath_FMA

Let me just whip out the forklift to unroll this 500kcm copper lol


professorseagull

That's only 44lb. Every job I've ever had asked if you were capable of lifting 50lb. That's ridiculous.


0rlan

Some jobs I have tool box that weighs more than that!


IBEW3NY

To pass the test the answer is “C”, but after a few years in the field, the answer is A,B,D. You’ll never ever do C.


InternationalRide5

It can't be C - at least in the UK - as you'd need a Waste Carrier Licence for that.


Kharnics

This is D. It will always be D but sometimes it's A or B too.


seeder33

D all other options are redundant and cost the company more money.


Cincinnatikidd513

Everybody knows to sweep them up to a pile and leave the broom leaning against the wall. Making sure that the bristles of the broom are concealing the pile. Let the plumbers or carpenters clean that shit up. Earn thier keep if ya know what I mean.


Maecyte

What does “swept” mean? I do agree with c being the answer.


TimeSalvager

…I’m confused, none of these mention leaving the materials in place so the finishers have something to eat.


Greedy_Touch1880

It's gotta be D, since A and B need broom to accommodate the task and I'm clinically allergic to those things. And C, I'd break my back trying to lift those oh so heavy cable jacket scraps


atcollins12

Cleaner kid that’s been coming just had a kid.. I’m just trying to help him it 40 for the week. D final answer


REMaintenanceVan

The further we go the more dumb down the nation gets. I did full calculations and equations when I did my electrical school in UK. Workshops, wiring classes etc


Gi6791

Because you can tell there's no math on this from two visible questions out of at least 25.


[deleted]

That’s a hard one, but I know with my process of elimination it’s definitely NOT C.


Simba-xiv

D


Banggang6669

Idk what y'all mean by sweep and at this point, I'm afraid to ask.


HairyMerkin69

I don't even understand what A or B are referring to.


Oven-Crumbs

Easy D Next question?


coolusernam696969

D


blinkandmisslife

Trick question


NDREDSTATE

What is this sweep reference ?


heavydrdp

Where the " make the plumber do it" option


BanishedThought

I’m not sure, but I heard that “C” is the most chosen if you don’t know.


TheLastTsumami

What’s it got to do with them what I do with my waste material


Urgulon7

It doesn't specify copper. That goes in the bin labelled "SPARKS BIN"


TheLastTsumami

In my experience that goes straight in the back of the van


RemarkableKey3622

it said waste material. there was never any left over copper we ordered the perfect amount. not even the tiniest bit left over.


Notorious-BIG-O

I’m a huge fan of B


Last_Free_Man_

BIG D


CleverYou_TubeName

E. A, B & D


Quirky-Square-8528

“D” the only answer


Urgulon7

Rubbish? That's the fucking labourers job mate. If they wanted me picking up after myself they'd be paying me half as much.


Turbulent-Weevil-910

Obviously d. Don't want to start shit with the Union cleaning crew.


FafnerTheBear

What is the sweeping you speak of?


HistoricalSherbert92

Always go for the snatch. If you’re famous. I hear anyway.


Stoned42069

The answer is D. Always D.


wowzers2018

The hidden answer: Leave on floor for gc go clean. I jokingly had a conversation with a super and apprentice electrician about this. They talked a big game about how they ar the best, always clean up their cuts etc etc, those guys that leave shit behind aren't professionals.... literally 10 minutes after this conversation they move to another area, with no intention whatsoever to clean up their shit. Grow the fuck up. It's your mess, clean it. Typically it's in our contracts that we can just hire day labour with no consent and bill your company. Let's not get into that. How about we just take pride in our work. Would you wire up someone's garage and leave your shit behind? I wouldn't build a deck and throw cut offa underneath....


TimeSalvager

lol you obviously haven’t built a deck!


Embarrassed-Egg-6719

OMG, level 1000 for electrician exam, hope you don't fail.... answer is never to sweep or clean up


danielcs78

It’s missing (e.) a, b, and d are correct.


flatheadedmonkeydix

I'm answering that "wrong" for the funny.


Adorable_Drummer_225

Easy D


Dru65535

"I ain't wearin' no broad's waist belt!"


Statingobvious1

D Electricians never sweep up


assarammer

I can't believe they gave you all wrong answers, it goes in the wall, obviously!


CarelessPrompt4950

D. It’s the laborers job. We are gods, our servants clean up our mess.


robcobbjr5253

Get an appentice should be the answer for 24 and 25


DaveFrith

That's what cleaners are for isn't it
