I read a considerable number of magazines, on top the stuff of the ECA and NICEIC, just to keep up with my job.

Over the last few years when the now-feared, instead of welcomed, inspector calls and I have something missing, my response is to keep dropping various aspects of the work I do. Soon, the trade will be split into many, many sections and all because of bureaucracy.

Anyone self-employed now is on a fast downward spiral. Three days鈥� paperwork, two days鈥� real work.

I read with great resentment the NICEIC boasting two million certifications to the 黑洞社区 Regs. What a total waste of time, effort and money. Instead of a pat on the back, a kick up the arse would be more fitting. Almost every electrician I鈥檝e spoken to can鈥檛 wait to get out of the trade.

Our trade bodies have sold us out.
