When they start with use they cannot use a screwdriver. Things were

Why doesn't your boss give potential apprentices a simple test
to find out if they have even the slightest knowledge of the
subject they wish to be paid to learn about?
For example:
1. What is the UK mains voltage? (Accept both 240 & 230,
though the latter answer might indicate a better knowledge of
the subject.)
You mean saying 230V and being wrong is better than the correct answer.
2. What are the colours of the wires in a 3-core mains lead?
Old one. new one or a Chinese one?
