My son is Gen Z. He’s well into an electrician’s apprenticeship and testing far above his classmates. He’s hoping that after his apprenticeship he can go for an Engineering degree to be able to design the things he’s working on now rather than running conduit and pulling wire. I think he’ll be fine.

Same. He has an Accounting degree and is doing electrical work. He likes the finality of building as opposed to open-ended nature of Accounting where you have to keep doing the same thing over and over. He also didn’t like working with mentally-ill women. Offices are full of them.

Kudos to you and your son.
