DOUG, had to answer you back on a few things. #1,come on 78 poles in a day? If you are only cuttin taps (in a 12 hour day,which is normal for most dawgs) that equates out to 6.5 poles per hour or about 1 tap every 9 minutes (including hooking the pole and the walk or drive in between) I must cry BULLSHIT on this one. #2, I think the most useless piece of skin you have anything to do with is wrapped around you're tools, you should have more respect for your lady. this is just my opinion , of course.

well so much for another episode of
"saturday night live". some stupid skits but some damn funny ones as well... back to the topic at hand... whitfield? may i ask, just exactly WHOMS attention are you trying to get? dude, in a perfect world i'd be 1st to admit you got a great dream. but its not a perfect world as we all are painfully aware, and if it was, your dream would'nt be needed. but there are flaws that are totaly out of your control to correct, that will stop that dream with a rude awakening. you want the whole tele-communication industrys attention? instead of trying to ban all contractors togeather against all mso's, would'nt a better idea be to ban the contractors AND the mso's TOGEATHER to get answers/resolve things that need resolved? i believe it could be. but i give the latter about the same chance of succeeding as i do the former. you'd have to get all the mso's to ban togeather. good luck! we cant tell them how to run their buisness just as they cant tell us how to run ours. is'nt America great?!! talk to ya'll tomorrow! good to see you again onecableman.

I have posted my thoughts on here a couple of times and they were very lengthy and intellectual. Contents of what I believed was going on in the industry now and in the near future. Also what I thought of the large contractors being bought up by even larger Corps. I did not recieve one comment on any of these posts. It just goes to show you what morons come to this area. Its ok though I won't waste my time writting in here anymore since there isnt anyone in here worth the effort. Oh by the way, I dont write under an alias so here it goes. The only two guys in here that make sense are Onecableman and Gary Vest, and a very few others. Key word "very few." Whitfield has a nice dream but it's only a pipe dream, "give it up"!!! Splicerlife4me, just likes to start shit, and bitches more than a splicer should be allowed too. Ya know it must be a splicer's right to bitch , because I never met one that don't!!! Why is that? It must be because they don't have anyone to talk to all day! I'm done HAVE A NICE DAY!!

Amen, Cablem101!! No matter what happens in the industry, they will always need us, even if it is only maintenance, a good "dawg" can always notch out a living.
