It's never wasted if you learn a skill and it's nice to have a career you can fall back on if your chosen path in life comes to a dead end, I started out as a Mechanic and then progressed onto Computers but I carry in my head all the skills I've learned and you never know when something as simple as knowing how to solder a pipe will make constructing a garden tool easier ;)
Welcome to the best-Ish site :D
BTW have you got any spare 10mm copper pipe lying about, I need to make a beer chiller?
haha, by 'waste of time' i meant how everyone (tutors, local MPs, the government etc) claim there is a lack of plumbers, therefore id be in demand and everyone would want to hire me.. but that hasnt been the case =[ so in that sense, it is a waste of time, but yep, im defo glad about the skills ive got now. wont have to rely on some guy to fix my tap =D
and no, i dont hoard copper pipe. the last bit i pilfered from college was made into an xmas tree fairy..
