Good news from a friend

Just found out today that a  young friend of mine who is 18 now quit his job at the abattoir to do an apprenticeship. He starts on monday to be an electrician. I am so happy for him as he is now on the right path to being someone and having a good life. Electrician is also good because if he gets sick of it he can branch out to do solar or cars or alarms or alot of other things. Its what i wanted for my son , I even faught with him when he was 16 about it but instead he is going to uni still to be an accountant, I feel as though he is procrastinating and due to his situation a trade would have been far better as he would be making good money now instead of hardly anything but i hope he proves me wrong.
    I am very happy that this young man listened to me and is now on his way towards being a sparky
