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

Or my duct knife

nah, taze his ass and piss on him; less paperwork

He bought 32 cases of beer

yeah, but if you make a mistake like that and can afford that kinda beer, i don't think money will teach him the lesson he needs

So $55x32 is $1760

that's alot of beer

It is

Or was

ehhe

What’s cadia?
