Update: on working as an electrician in Riga: I quit my previous job and received a few offers one for 1,200 euros gross with not-so-great conditions, and another for 9 euros net per hour, but it involves a long commute of over an hour every day, which leaves my legs aching and me feeling exhausted. My takeaway: working as an electrician in Latvia isn’t a very comfortable job. Even the guys who know more than I do or who actually do design work barely get any sleep. It’s a 10+ hour workday with no decent pay, and many offer to pay under the table. I’d rate it a 6 out of 10 I can’t recommend it to everyone. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
