if we could have returned all the material in our shop, or better yet that got borrowed or tossed from a jobsite, when we were union, i think I'd be retired by now.

A good friend of mine is currently working for another large union shop here in NJ. He calls me the other day to ask if we needed bolt on circuit breakers. Brand new, in the box, about $3,000 worth. Foremen told an apprentice to dump them in the trash.

Now if MCI had the same people working for them, that could have something to do with it.

BTW- it's tough to keep track of this when your foremen is from the hall and has control over the job according to the locals rules.

Ol' MCI bit the dust 'eh?
I knew a few guys that worked for them...I suprised that didn't fold sooner...some of these guys had 0 talent.


Watch for "Alarms Controls" at an auction near you...they just bit the dust a week or two ago.

Bob, I think we called them "tart carts" back then..

No offense to anyone but those that ride the Short RED Bus....

"Bob, I think we called them "tart carts" back then.."

Damn, I'm LMAO here. No I've never heard em called that LOL!

Wow, they got 2 short and 1 full size school buses. I would of hate to pay over $3 a gallon to fill up 50+ trucks every week.

Unbelievable Les,
Now that's what I call an auction!.
