"The beginning" or "An electricians view of the world."

[studman]

May 2010 be a happy and prosperous year for all.
For years now I have marveled at how some people in this business boast about their dominance in this line of work, kind of like some fleas on a dogs ass thinking they are king of the dog shit pile. Well after another comment on the job the other day from one of the tradesmen notorious for this line of thinking I just had to post my thoughts on this subject.
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Now the earth was [a] formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

6 And God said "OK sparkies you can take it from here."

....and there was an immediate power surge that caused a blackout of 3 continents....

LOLOLOL!!

Some of us sparkies are more like sparklers that fizzle at times. I know how you feel.

Still, that was the funniest thing I have read in a while.:rockwoot:

Keep your chin up Studman.

I am not sure but I think in the beginning, to light the heavens & earth - it was ruled that work belonged to the electricians. Down thru the years, I think I have met some of those first electricians are so they thought.:wtf

This ol sparkie,s spark, has started to fizzle a bit.

Take care

It's not our fault we're awesome. My father always taught me that electricians are the doctors of the job site.

Seems like someone is wearing there onion skin and doing a lot of crying!! We electricians can't help it if we are great!! I mean after all "WE ARE"" so therefor we must be Electricians!!
Hell I can almost remember when God said, "OK sparkies you can take it from here."

I'm guessing that you're a wood bender. When was the last time you built a building using nothing but hand tools?

There is always more to a post than meets the eye.

Lets just drop this.

Yeah, we are all guilty of tooting our own horn sometimes, me included.
Just lets not buy into this form of ugliness. The original post was funny but It has gotten out of hand. We are professionals after all. Lets post like it.
:cheers

Back to posting good RPI information.

[studman]

come on guys let's laugh at ourselves. if we didn't we'd cry. after competence one of the most important aspects on the job site is morale. a few good insults hurled about the crew weeds out the cry babies. thick skin or die. can't you feel the love? now on to serious matters. the gig i'm on finishes in a few weeks. anybody got a job for a wood bender?

What is your problem fellow worker - when you came on this site you were told to wear your tough skin - you must have lost yours. No one said a bad word about you are your trade!
Lighten up buddy, you have no reason to cancel out. We need all crafts on site, and on the job, together we all make a good group each doing their own craft. At the beginning of my short construction career - at 12 yrs old worked as a roofer ( shingles ) and then carp. & plumer. But ended up a electrician.

You can do better then - (fu-- you) give it another try. :wtf

Take care

Yes another DAM prima donna sparky.:fauches:
