AJ Moore Mrs. Wilcox English - Pd #3 17 October 2016 Future Careers You are missing both a hook and context in your introductory paragraph. Both electronics engineers and drafters need to have strong problem solving skills and prior work experience. However these occupations are substantially different in work environments, job outlooks, education and salary. Drafters and electrical engineers require a worker to have strong problem solving skills and previous experience in the field. The education
Electronic and electrical equipment is essential part of busy world. It substitutes hard human work and makes it faster. Most of people have a computer at home or at work.
