Well, Monday's almost over in this part of the world now.
Haven't done much electtrical work at all today, other than checking out some phone wiring for someone (turned out to be an outside line problem in the end, so no more work needed on my part).
I've been wearing one of my other hats today, updating software I wrote to help run the local taxi service. Probably back to the wiring on Wednesday.....

Sparky,
Where in VT? I live in Mass now, but folks still live in Essex Jct. I think it depends on where in VT for your weekend warrior analogy.

Well, today I inspected 1 commercial building with a 1600 amp service, 9 meters. 5 new services residential, 8 rough inspections residential. 1 outside hot tub, and 2 final inspections. Most passed inspection, but a couple of them failed. When ever there is a holiday (Or a short week) the work load always doubles the week we get back to work.

Good thing monday was open Got a call about a fire alarm system that was disabled on last wed.nite for what the nite maint guy thought was a false alarm.
Of course management wants it fixed right now. and "why didn't you work on this thursday?"
Manager now does not like full story
Some one pulled a pull station, fire alarm worked, fire dept responded, maint guy tells fire dept no fire and shuts down alarm system -leave his boss a note for after the holiday weekend ( business closed on fri)
was only the 15th pull station I checked to find which one was pulled and not reset.
I know they will hate my bill

as it is now tuesday morning, its pretty obvious that my monday schedule is now 24 hrs. behind schedule!.. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.electrical-contractor.net/ubb/frown.gif) ....actually, things were going pretty well monday morning, until 7:03 a.m., (i get to work by seven). someone cut the lock on the back gate, entered our "high-tech, secure" parking area, and syphoned all the gas from our service trucks, as well as stealing a couple of batteries, and a spare tire........ just another day in "paradise"...... ![[Linked Image]](https://www.electrical-contractor.net/ubb/wink.gif) hope you all have a safe, (and profitable) week! gramps
