Cheating Electrician

I cheated when I went to the electrician school. I don't know what I'm doing, I am truly a fool. I always screw up every house that I wire. When the power is turned on, people scream "Fire!" I connect 110 volt wires to 220 outlets and 220 to 110. When people see my work, they never hire me again. I was foolish when I decided to wire my house too. As it burned, I realized that it was a stupid thing to do. I've been sued two hundred and fifty times and soon it will be two hundred and fifty-one. When I rewired a man's house who had no insurance, he shot me in the ass with a gun. I have something to say and I'm sure that you'll agree. If you want a house that you can keep, don't hire me. (This is a fictional poem.)
