I wanted to thank the 2 members (both anonymous) who purchased tools for the new job I start Tuesday the 8th. Since I don't have their names, the only way I can thank them or express my gratitude is to post about it. So here we are!

Thank you so much! I appreciate your kindness and generosity.
It means more to me than you know. I have a lot to deal with during this career transition, and having some of the tools I need gives me that much less I have to worry about. Thank you!
I got the official list of tools from the company that hired me, and I added all the items I still need to my Amazon wishlist.
My instructor actually said that a new Electrician Apprentice's worth is mostly what tools he has (=what tasks he can be assigned).
