Best multi screwdriver?

Should I purchased insulated or non?

I’m thinking about buying a set of Wera screwdrivers, but I can’t decide whether to get the insulated or non-insulated version. Realistically, I only use a flathead for prying or striking, and I use my impact driver for Phillips and most other screw types. Since insulated screwdrivers are more versatile for electrical work, they seem like the better choice, but I’m wondering if it’s okay to hit or beat on an insulated flathead

Question I’m freaking out a bit

So I got SR22 insurance because I had a dui a year ago however I moved to TX and the Mandortory actions unit told me I had to have SR22 insurance for 3 years I just checked my SR22 insurance and apparently it’s been expired for a couple days now I just called my insurance to try to renew it and they told me it’s not possible because even if I’m late by one day the clock resets and I have to redo my 3 years is this true?! Getting in touch with man forty actions unit is near impossible and I’m freaking out right now what can I do? This dui is a nightmare even years later

Question, am I shooting myself in the foot by going union from non union?

I recently passed my aptitude test and have the resources and connections to get into my local union. My main concern is that I've been hearing they're picking up a lot of data center and low-voltage work, which isn't the direction I'm interested in pursuing.
Right now, I'm an 8-month apprentice with a commercial electrical contractor, and I've genuinely grown to love commercial work. In a relatively short amount of time, I've learned a tremendous amount and feel like I'm developing valuable hands-on skills every day.
I'm worried that if I join the union, I could end up assigned to a data center or low-voltage job where my growth in commercial electrical work might slow down. While I recognize the opportunities the union can provide, I'm concerned about stepping away from an environment where I'm learning quickly and enjoying the type of work I want to build my career around.
