Welcome to all you new people.

As Bill says, let us know about yourself, you will find a very accomodating bunch, (not to mention an entertaining bunch ) of people here.

Roger

G'day Mate
I live in Grand Rapids. MI have my own company and have 14 employees. I have lived in the States for 15 years and moved here from Australia, Tasmania. Had to learn a lot in the uSA when I first came as things here are doen so different then in Tasmania. I did my apprentiship in a Paper Mill (dirty and smelly) I realy enjoy the states it a good place to live and lots of oppertunity

Hello, I'll jump in here

I'm from Mankato, Minnesota, i'm 19 years old and am working as an apprentice electrician. I find this board very interesting and I'm doing my best to refrain from asking stuipd questions, lol

Hello Nick and Andy.

Nick, I've done my time in the paper mills also. It was always amusing to see the looks people woud give you when stopping at the super market after a shift.

Andy, do your best to answer all the educational(school work) questions on your own, and then ask away.

Roger

Welcome Nick and Andy!

Anyone else out there that wants to say hello?

c'mon ..

Welcome to all.

Nick,
I'm sure you've already noticed that we have a Non-U.S. area, should you want to chat about how you used to do things in the "Old Country," and we have several members from Australia and New Zealand, as well as one or two "Pommies" like myself.

And to new U.S./Canadian members, if you have any questions about how we do things in other parts of the world, don't be afraid to post a question in the non-U.S. area. With members in several European countries, somebody can probably come up with an answer to most queries about that funny foreign 'lectric'.

Thanks for the welcoming...!

I´m an Electromechanical Engineer from Panama small country in Central America, not much year in the field. But loving every minute. Im a Sales representative and sometimes work as a contrator.

Thanks Bill...!

Thanks for the welcome! I am interested in an electrician apprenticeship as stated in my post "Apprenticeship" as some of you may have already seen. Currently I am an electronic tech. I work on flight safety equipment for planes.

Welcome, Newbies! Glad to have you here.

I'm not in the Electrical industry but help put together projects for a gov't facility and often have to find out the details of all types of work to be done on them. I came here for some info and stuck around (and not just for the entertainment alone, Roger.. ) because there is a lot of learning one can do about the industry and life in general!
