yes. he doesn't get the master copies; those go to the bourough

You haven't been on the field have you?

i have been in the field for over a decade

Hah, fucking desk monkey

but no two bourough works the same; states are different too

lol; nah, i used to do switchboard work

Fucking switchboards hah

that and substation shit; tranforms and capactive compensation mainly

but i do alittle residential on the side; want to go for inspector certification eventualy

Listen, I get it, you want to lie to make it seem like you haven't been trapped behind a desk for the past decade or so, but it won't do you any good, just go be an inspector and you can join us in the field one day, maybe.

dude, i've probably installed more service connections with my own two hands than you have

lol

Sure bud

upgraded the service in this house last year in fact

no engineer can assemble a drawing if he doesn't do some of the work himself

otherwise he doesn't know his ass from his elbow

American electrical is seen as inferior here, whenever americans come up here we need to rewire their shit all the time, if we were to wire like an american, it would land us with massive fines

yeah, i can beleive it; fucking regulations

Regulations ensure your shit doesn't burn down or explode

lol; no, thats what the engineer is supposed to do when he sizes the protective devices, panels and cables

What kind of jackass uses a screwdriver to complete a circuit or doesn't know his ground from his neutral?

lol; same jackass that uses a 3/4" bolt in place of a 30A fuse

I had an american remove my lockout tag out kit and restarted the circuit I was working on, I nearly stabbed him

fuck! i have had idiots do that shit

as if the tag was just a suggestion

I was sent flying due to being shocked, I was furious, my forman stopped me and made the guy buy 32 cases of beer for me and the crew

damn. what was it? 240V circuit?

Yes

I was on my skyjack while doing it

knew a guy that got flashed doing something similar to a line-voltage regulator; brutal

I was wiring a junction box

yeah, i am always paranoid when i do shit like that myself; even when i run the tags myself, i still check the leads before touching shit

Here's the thing, I wrote a very threatening message on the tag, threatened to break the teth of anyone that removed it, he ignored that

i'm supposed to be paranoid; i'm an engineer; the electrican deals with the hands on shit everday; he always knows it better; arrogance gets you killed

wtf? did he think the tag was just for decoration?

Apparently

someone needs to take that guy for a long, quiet walk in the woods with a taser
