I believe that I have seen your trucks. I live in Pittsfield near the rotary. I am sure you know where that is. I am very seriously thinking about getting the permit for my CDL. I know that I can't get my license because I don't know how to drive standard although I have been showed twice while my friend needed a DD. I did very well, but need TONS of practice. With practice I am sure I can pass the test. Thank you all for your help and guidance as I do truly appreciate it. I will hopefully become a real man one of these days and learn standard. I have been wanting to, but didn't know anyone with one.
Use em to get through winter, then go do residential and see what real treework is about. Thats what I would do anyway.
Nice insult. I would like to see you climb up above a three phase and remove overhang. An energized three phase that is. Residential, wow, the danger, I mean you might rip down an eavestrough if you let a branch drop onto it, attached to the tree even. Try that with a powerline.
I find it hard to be calm when I get calls from school loan repayment companies too often for my liking. It is also that in some ways I am regretting taking the job I have now because I keep wondering if it would be better to be on unemployment because I know there are ways of getting them to pay for trainings although I do not know if that would apply to this industry. I just can't bring myself to do it because I never want to be unemployed. I can suceed my current job it is just the fact that I want to be outside again. I generally just want to move. I have applied for a few things in MD, some things in Pittsfield area, and some stuff in the Boston area.
This has nothing to do with my job search just a little curiosity. On my way home today on the pike, I saw a tree company near the entrance to 291. Does anyone know the name?
I just want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years in case I don't get the chance.
Look I don't know your age but lets say 20, if you are that age and teachable and wondering if this is the career for you? I will suggest you follow your heart and do what you feel is in your best interest. Having said that I would suggest staying in school until you achieve a BS at least because it seems more valuable than thirty years service with corporations these days. It is not but they seem to promote a college boy more than any experiance level to the detriment of man- kind!
Clearance I didnt mean to get you all riled up man. Its just that I know lewis well, I have had more than a few of thier old employees work here and one of my good friends works for them still. I know what goes on over there, most of those guys cant even tie knots. I had one of thier "top guys" come here for awhile last summer - that turned into such a nightmare I didnt even bother starting a "new help might have to go 3" thread. This guy had to put a snap cut on ash logs in order to chunk them down with the bucket - every cut (supposed to be making 18" firewood for the HO) a 27" piece of "firewood" ka..crack. man was that annoying.
I know there are some good ones dude, calm down.
I get touchy about the slagging us utility guys get, for good reason. Anyways, no offence and a Merry Christmas to you.

#1 that rope.
as for the line clearance/Residential debate... Line clearance is the more dangerous of the 2, however residential is more phsically demanding! personally I would rather have a contract myself doing Line work!!
LXT..........
Hey what you need is a rep I mean someone willing to go out on a limb get in their face and speak up for you guys! I would be delighted to do so:angel:
Of course I need a living from it:Eye: Awaiting nomination lol.
Its a thankless task, as you may already know. You can't win, they hate you for cutting pos trees down, and cry and mew when the pos trees they pressured the utility into saving rip down the line and they got no power.
Merry Christmas Rope.
