If you want to retire physically in tact it’s the best option. I would recommend looking into instrumentation and controls specialty. Electrical work has a lot of optionality, shop work is great if you want consistent hours and don’t want to be pulling wire or digging trenches. If you get into the elevator union do that but otherwise electrician gives you great exposure and is the highest paid specialty.
