Two red flags for trades and swe and other work:

1 - never saying that they would have done it differently if not outright roasting the work 2 - letting someone else take over their project, willingly, and not because they’re busy. Assuming it’s not a pile of shit they don’t want to do.

Am electrician can confirm

If I dont do it the homeowner tries to and I have to awkwardly nod instead of fixing the problem and that just takes so much longer

That’s the part I hate most about being a SWE. Just shut up and do your job. I’ve seen your code. You code like you read blogs for a living.
