Sat down with the brothers (Really, they are related type brothers) and gave them one of my hand-outs.

Then some basic circuit design.....

And questioned them both on the goings on.... Found out a lot about how the job went!

The 2 of them are "rope-pullers" from the speculative side of the trade, and from way out in the boonies. They only come so far to the city for the higher wages. But they are just that, "rope-pullers" with State issued Certification cards, that say "Journeyman" on them. Niether makes any bones about what they know either, which is not much. They probhably learned more today than they have in thier five years of doing the same things over and over again in open framing on low ball contract work.

Apparently, they kept asking about how things were supposed to be, and got answers like "yeah, sure, fine..."
