Oahu, Hawaii for 27 years. People here break out the overcoats when it drops down to 60 deg f. So far in June there has been 3 south shore swells with wave heights in the 6-8 range.
I also am a foreman for a small company. Got into the trade in 1975, master's license since 1979. We do mostly commercial work, but I've been "in the trenches" a lot in the past 3 yrs running 4" PVC for underground utilities. I live in Brewer, Maine.
Located in Maryland. Been doing the electrical thing for going on 23 years. (Wow seems like just yesterday I blew up my first pair of Klein's) Work for a large commercial contractor and myself on weekends.
Located in Christchurch, New Zealand. Employed as electrical engineer for a company which distributes enclosures, breakers, contactors, built-up switchboards etc. This forum is a valuable resource to me, as I need to be familiar with whats happening in the industry.
I am not new here and I have been around for many years. As for the new guys, don't be afraid, we don't bite nor do we flame anyone around here. This board has to be one of the nicest boards around. I have known Jo and Bob and many others for years and we are all here to learn and teach each others. The new guys have new things that us older guys might not know and the older gents have some years of experience behind them. No one on this board has to be afraid to "say" something. We can all live and learn.
