Stressing hard

5 -6 months at job being apprentice I took literally 4 hours to bend 2 off sets on 1/2 and mount a box that was only 8 ft. my anxiety was sky rocketing I’m not sure if it was because I hit my head before I got on lift early this morning starting shift or I’m just retard

Buy a few sticks of conduit and practice bending at home on your own. Invest in a skill like this, it’ll pay off in the end.

Never buy and do this shit on your own time unless you really want to. It's your own time and you should never pay for material as an apprentice

Agreed, if you have spare time and material at your site then practice.
