Change of career to Heating Engineer

Good on you for having a go, But what are you like working with your hands, how meny courses do you intend doing ? Plumbing / Tiling / Carpentry / Joiner, its going to cost a fortune , and if you don't have any practical ability you will be wasting your money, Stick with the Plumber for 2/3 Mths to see how you take to it B4 you lay out money on 'intensive training' Good luck with it !!

I am pretty good with my hands and tend to pick things up quickly. I would only be looking at plastering and joinery, my plumber mate when I spoke to him yesterday doesn't have any of these skills (that he uses on jobs) - so I might be able to bring something else to the table, you never know... would I be wrong in thinking that bathroom fitting is not a million miles away from kitchen fitting?

People skills are vital in every job though, if you are after a raise or promotion you really need to be more of a butt licker than a grafter. Plumbers gotta talk the talk and walk the walk really

Bathrooms much more difficult than kitchens
