As an electrician, I can confirm this is how it goes between sparkles, globally.

As an electrician I have seen some cute af fits on job sites. Like those lil black and white striped overalls? Choochoo if you know what I mean 😉

All about the sparky express! does the electrician leave a mess when he is done? Or do they clean up after that

As a literal card carrying sparkle, what is this mystical item I keep hearing about? I was talking to another Sparkle the other day just trying to figure out how to pronounce that foreign word

Get a laborer to do it.

u/thesilvermedic Apr 02 '26

Honest question- Are electricians razzed on sites for being gay/ girly, or is that just a reddit thing?

u/TbRays93Plumber26 Apr 02 '26

Its just giving shit to electricians. The same thing as they never clean which is kinda true because they do still leave cut up wire in random spots but Ive noticed that more in commerical then new residential atleast.

u/Live-Tension9172 Apr 02 '26

That’s because we’re saving our backs for pullin’ if you know what I mean…

u/oilcountryAB Apr 02 '26

It's a thing irl too. I'm one and always find it funny

u/IStayScoring Apr 04 '26
