Weekly Affirmations for Electricians Who Are Trying Their Best

Fifty-two weeks of encouragement from someone with no business encouraging anyone. Week 24: Today I will trust the splice that is held together by electrical tape, a prayer, and thirty years of luck. Every electrician knows the feeling. The panel isn't labeled. The homeowner "just flipped a couple breakers to see." Somebody has already said "it worked fine before you got here." What that person needs is not advice. It's one short sentence a week, in big type, that says: yes, this is how it is, and you showed up anyway. Weekly Affirmations for Electricians Who Are Trying Their Best is fifty-two of them. One for every week of the year, illustrated, and set in type large enough to read in a crawlspace at 6:40 in the morning. There is no wiring advice in this book. There is no code reference. There is nothing in here that will pass an inspection. A gift for the journeyman who trained you, the apprentice who is about to quit, the spouse who comes home smelling like burnt insulation, and anyone who has ever said "that's not my wire." Hans Tingle has been in the trade long enough to know better.
