The days gone by were some great years and I have made some great friends in this industry. I started in Cable in 1979 . I hired on with an outfit named American Spliceco out of Morehead City North Carolina . Left there and went to Cinncinati Ohio (I know its not spelled right Gary)lol. We brought cable to Ohio on hooks and off flatbeds . Spliceco pulled out of Ohio and went to Texas when then Owner Mike Brakefield signed one of the largest contracts ever signed in Texas. I stayed in Ohio and went to work for Jackson . God only knows how many towns and citys I've worked in . Of all the places I've never felt better about my job than in 1989 in Florence South Carolina after hurricane Hugo hit . I can still see the children running and on bicycles in front and beside you as you passed through a sub divison hollaring its the cable man , its the cable man , it made you feel special. . Moral to these stories is how many professions can you choose that allow you the freedom cabledogs \ cabldawgs enjoy travling across the USA... "WHITFIELD" BigDuck
