[Silly Sausage]

Just for the record, I'm NOT.
So I can't say Hello!

 

[CockneyReject]

Hello

i work on power stations, in factories, chemical plants, large commercial projects, flat refuse to shop fit and try my hardest to avoid domestic and the semi skilled clowns that all do it oh and the scams that demand mega bucks to pose as a spark, does that make me a sparky?

 

[Geordie Spark]

I didn't get a shock. Well, not an electric shock anyway, I did nearly need a change of underwear when the RCD operated.

And you call yourself a Geordie??!!!! Ya big daft ----- !!!:lol:

 

[telectrix]

i'd say that made you an industrial sparky. a cut above the T/E to a shed brigade. :sifone:

Cheers Tel, to me a sparks a spark, if you can do the lot your a spark if you can't then try plumbing instead

 

[Manutd4life]

Full time served spark, still enjoy it apart from the odd job.

 

[telectrix]

I get the feeling you don't like man utd fans. Tbh the odds were stacked against me as the whole country seems to hate us. But living in Gateshead I get a lot of **** for it and they wonder why they get a shock when they are working with me :smartass:

Hi from a dreich Fife

 

[ElectroChem]

I'll give you a 'Gudday' but formally only an 'H' as I'm a contracted apprentice roughly 1/5 the way through my indenture, then and only then may I call myself qualified. This forum makes me so glad I live in a country without the five-week brigade. You want to be a sparky in Oz, suck it up and serve your time.

 

[Knobhead]

Mores the pity it isn’t the same here. I wish you all the very best in gaining both qualification and more importantly experience.

Stick at it.

 

[dingledong]

Tony you are gullible ! They don't have electric in Australia yet ,it's all out back and kangaroos

 

[Guest77]

You mean it is men in white string vests drinking all day with a pair of upside down pliers.

 

[ElectroChem]

Yeah we hold the pliers backwards because in Australia, it's the electricity that needs protecting from us

 

[edexlab]

Hello count me in as a qualified electrician

I'm just waiting for someone to start the short course electrician only thread .......
then the forum will crash!

 

[topquark]

Hello, little industrial since leaving British Rail in the 70's so more at home here than the industrial thread :smilewinkgrin:

 

[davesparks]

Hello

10 years ago I embarked on one of those terribly unfashionable apprenticeship things, and still learning everyday.
