Answer:

We don't get shocked because of the type of materials used in the switch is a poor conductor of electricity

Explanation:

Yes it is quite amazing we don't get shocked, this is because of resistance of the type of materials used in the switch (non conductors of electricity) so that when you try to put on a switch no current passes through you, mostly the material are made from plastics Or ceramics which are actually poor conductors of electricity.
