After many years working the chemical plants here the only reqirement to be an electrician there was to be certified.or to have a craft performance evaluation.then after leaving the plant i found that the only requirment here to be a master electrician is to simply pass the test . this in itself is insane............worst of all is having to clean up the aftermath of a "handymans" work....here actualy without a license.....a permit can be pulled by the home owner or owner of the property with no questions asked as long as the fee was paid...and call me what you will.........a tattletale or whatever. i will and have reported illegal practices. and will continue to do so..... this is my livelyhood.......this puts beans on my table
let those handymen pay their dues as did we all.....if this post offends anyone i apologise for that but ill make no apologies for the way i feel on this subject.
thanks and good luck
