every tool that is … every tool that is carried in that tool pouch is needed, you can make as much money as you're worth, depending on how much responsability you want to take and how much ability to run work and lead people you have.

in reply to … in reply to Mistermanguy yes i suppose one may get shocked doing electrical work in my case mucht more so working at home or when i was young tinkering with electrical gadgets now when i work at the big Tarsand projects it is rare someone would get shocked that would be considered a incident not that everybody reports it if one follows all the mandatory procedures on these jobs it becomes nearly imposible to get a shock doing electrical work and you do not want to be hit with 600volt or4160V

@cjw1169 What … @cjw1169 What takes you a year to make we make that in 6 months.
Mistermanguy says:

Yep. I was doing if … Yep. I was doing if for about two months before I got shocked. Was’nt a hard hit though. It didnt grab ahold of me. Once you get hit you will loosen up about it and feel more comfortable around it and trust me..its gonna happen. You can reduce the chance of getting hit with a good pair of insulated gloves though.

Amen buckslyr…… … Amen buckslyr……I have been in the IBEW for 22 years and other than 1 stint during the first Bush years I have worked steady for the last 16 years without missing a break or lunch and the contractor I work for has prospered as have I. Couldn’t even imagine working without my wage and benefit package and having to do every wormy thing to keep my job, Thank god for unions and those who fought for it in the early years. Some just don’t get it!!!!
