spot the mistake?

Thanks Ban,

Nice to see you can laugh at people who are less fortunate. Yes I'm training and I wouldn't be on here if I knew everything.....
You have probably been doing electrics all your life, but if you asked me for help on linux or server issues I'd be able to help. Not laugh because you didn't know...
I never said I knew everything about electrics..hence the work training-"acquiring of skill: the process of teaching or learning a skill or job."

You need to wake up and smell the coffee.

If you thought that the diagram you drew might possibly be right then you shouldn't even pick up a screwdriver, let alone own one, because it shows that you just have zero understanding of what a basic light switch does.

Yes I'm training and I wouldn't be on here if I knew everything.....

That won't wash.

Firstly

when i was doing my electrical training....

which means your electrical training was in the past.

Secondly

they taught us the certain ways to wire 2 and 3 way lighting

They didn't teach you what you drew. They didn't teach you that one of the ways to wire 2 and 3 way lighting was to create a circuit which would blow fuses/trip MCBs and weld switch contacts together.

They may have shown you two 2-way switches linked together, but that went clean over your head because you don't even understand what a switch does.

You have probably been doing electrics all your life,

No, but I can assure you that within a few seconds of being shown or reading about how a switch worked I would have known that what you drew was a disaster waiting to happen.

but if you asked me for help on linux or server issues I'd be able to help.

No thanks - got that covered too.

Not laugh because you didn't know...

Like I said - it's reality check time. For whatever reason you are not cut out to do electrical work. You simply do not have the foggiest idea - what you drew should have been instantly obviously wrong to anyone with any hope of acquiring the necessary skills.

Every day you spend trying to learn this skill is a day of your life down the pan - please give it up and concentrate on something you can actually do.
