Well, I'm a bit late, but that's OK, because I resolved, a while back, not to make any more New Year's resolutions.

However...

I would like to find employment any North NJ guys looking for a helper? and to seriously get into the trade.

I will be going to the Union Hall this Friday (that's the only day they take applications).

CTwireman: I wish you success (and everyone else, for that matter)!

Mr. Tedesco:
May I suggest an idea for "selling safety" as you phrased it: I vividly recall a movie shown in grade school, presented by a representative from AMTRAK. There were tracks near the school and they wanted to impress upon us the danger of playing on or near the tracks. Perhaps you can get something going with school districts to start people off at a young age, making them aware just how dangerous extension cords are, etc. Young minds are impressionable...

Joe,

As far as 'Selling Safety" goes, as per several correspondences we were supposed to get a Link from NESF and work cooperatively with them on getting Safety info and messages out. Any info or relationship has yet to materialize though.

Bill: I have been included in their list of links since they started.

You may want to contact the Executive Director, Michael Clendenin and ask him to include the ECN Safety Links.

Joe,

We've corresponded already, also with the Director before him. Being that they initiated the original contact(s) I was surprised when nothing panned out and further emails had not been answered.
