P.S. As fo the cursing, I believe that I am the only 1 that has been cursed at lately in here! I truly believe that this 'WET CEMENT' area can be used for writing damn near anything one wants, but I just as equally believe that when RACISM comes on the scene, it should be banned from being prnte here for all the world to see and think that we are all racist assholes. I may be an asshole (which I'm sure a good # of you agree), but I sure as hell am no racist. Live and let live and keep the ignorant racial remarks to yourselves. Nobody wants to hear it.

Amen to that! Racism has no place in Cable. Personal feelings about someone in particular is always open season. Thats what makes us free men. We can say what we feel and not worry about the Gestapo finding out. But the wise man does not burn bridges. (unless the bridge has already burned down.)

SweepTek has really "never" been a testy person that I can remember.
As for the S.O.B. thing! VERY, Extremely, OUT OF LINE!
As for sweeping 650 miles of plant?????????
If your tech's can sweep 10mi. a week each, that would take 65 tech's., 32 tech's if they do 20mi a week.....etc. And that's baring problems!
I would have to say...."Nottachance"...L
OL
As for proof & performance testing??????
As you know this is really done now to meet FCC regulations and QC our work! Which does help with meeting specifications of the plant!
But, proof & performance guidelines will probably be ungoing some major changes VERY soon!
Later.....

I agree completely, racisum sucks,Rick Grooms,best sweep tech I ever met, worked with him for 3 years before it dawned on me that he was a black dude, or Bauba down in Fla, or the mexican ug crews in Texas, some of the hardest workers I ever met, how about those P.R. construction crews in Kentucy, those men know how to build plant,we are all in this togeather,threw thick and thin,oh and one more thing,I've seen quite a few white niggers threw the years.

PS
I have to say Splicer, we agree on "one" thing!
The Racism remakes are uncalled for!
As for the cursing, well, I am trying to learn to "tolorate" it. But, I do not have to like it! It's a bummer when I have to read it, hear it!

Marriam-Webster Dictionary for the word "JOKE":
Something said or done to provoke laughter; a brief narrative with a humorous climax.
Lets see: Your the Son of a Bitch. Meaning: your mother is a Bitch! Ha-ha
Okay......I get it now!

HEHE...you said 'climax'! Dude, are you really this literal in the real world? It was said as a letter, not as a word...which , by the way, please refrain from using in the cement. It was said metaphorically Mark, not literally, which is the downfall of reading printed text. That is unless youve gone to grammer school and learned how to read. Also, it was followed by 'LOL', meaning "LAUGHING OUT LOUD". Seeing you use this abbreviation before, leads me to the belief that you knew that Mark, or are you writing what you know not about? Well, we shall see. And the story continues...LOL!
