short `courses`...and the Electrical Trainee they churn out ...

so...
got to this industrial unit yesterday...main panel wern`t bad...

got to this crappy sub board...and yep:

Mr 5 week has been in there....

all the cables were just stuffed in....pointless attempting to test that lot so i had to spend over an hour straightening it out to a reasonable level...

definately a short course bandit that had done that...

sick of em....really sick of em...
 
the rackets

so..

anyone noticed how the list of whats notifyable has gone down....yet the fees have gone up?

so...is that more for less?
 
if you cant pay...then we`l take it away....

or should it be :

`if you wont pay they`l go away`......

guess what i`m on about?
 
given the recent carry on where Myself, Phil Davies, Ian, Paul and Tel all went to the NIC stand to deliver what i thought was sound evidence courtesy of UKsparks.....then the utter crud that this puppet spouted...

going on about

`a benchmark of comptency`

and

`customer care/satisfaction`

and

`we are a charity dedicated to the safety of the public`


not really .....is it....
 
Re: short `courses`...and the Electrical Trainee they churn out ...

Not a good start then! Thought the short courses only covered single phase domestic? Least you're out and about, vans in for MOT, fingers crossed!
 
incompetent wannabies

i`m of the same frame of mind as E54 here...

those that choose the Electrical Trainee route know what they are doing....

trying to get into the industry through the back door....

caus theyr too ignorant & bone idle to go down the proper, recognised route:

college...for a min of 3 years backed up with practical on site experience...such as an apprenticeship.

just who do these charlatans think they are that they can just shuffle in after a few weeks in a booth someware?

What arrogance...

Re: short `courses`...and the Electrical Trainee they churn out ...

That'll teach me to make assumptions coz it was industrial, just make the client aware of the poor quality, they won't be back then.
 
Re: incompetent wannabies

I can't fully agree with you Glenn. I wouldn't like to tar everyone with the same brush. I'm sure there are quite a few Electrical Trainee people out there that for some reason or other this is the only and best route for now. Not all of them will be coming out from the 5 weeks training thinking that they can do any job. They are disillusioned if they think so and stupid if they try.

Re: parasites

Welcome to todays society. People thinking its ok to rip other off. Where did we go wrong???
 
Re: parasites

no-one...

i just thought i`d keep it fresh in folk`s memory....thats all...
 
the legalities of telling someone their competent in five weeks

its just a base lie...

YOU CANT BE COMPETENT IN 5 WEEKS!!

so...why is this out n out con being allowed to be peddled by so called `training centres`



it`s deceit in its lowest form...
 
so come on emma...how many fingers did it take?

i`m refering to getting that minister to play ball....

come on....she must have sold her soul here.....
 
Re: so come on emma...how many fingers did it take?

Glenn I'm not criticising you here because you know I support what you're saying but if you carry on with this then someone's going to give you another holiday and what good will that do.
What I'd love is for you to post any evidence you have of crap work by CPS registered people on the FB page. It'll have a lot more impact mate.
Maybe you could tell the story of UKSpark's horror story and your brush with the elecsa guy.

It's just every man for himself and I believe this me-first, I'm allright-jack, started in America and crept over here. We are not the nation we once were and have lost our moral compass.

Last week my No. 1 son on his way home at about 10:00 pm found a semi-concious man lying on the pavement with at least what looked like a broken shoulder.

No. 1 son is a bit of a useless article and hadn't a clue how to help this man other than phone for an ambulance and stay with him.

Three HOURS and FOUR more phone calls to ask where the ambulance was it arrived and the bloke was carted away. Son has had not one word of thanks from anybody.

The next day, he lost his wallet from his pocket when he was on a bus. The wallet had all his credit / debit etc. cards and £190 cash.

Has anybody handed it in or tried to make contact with him??? No chuckng fance!!

Earlier this year, Tidyboiler had her car trashed one night while it was parked outside her house.

The three yobs were seen by two plods actually doing it and were arrested on the spot but not charged because there was "Insufficient evidence"!!! Can you believe it??

Plod gave her the names and addresses of the scum bags and we're just biding our time until her brother and cousin come up for a visit - maybe when the nights are bit darker ....... You don't mess with these two - they are pikeys!!

And that's it .. we've gone to hell in a handcart and if you can't look after yourself you're screwed because nobody else will.

I hate this modern world - with a passion!!

Re: short `courses`...and the Electrical Trainee they churn out ...

I did a cowboy move today, tripped the mcb for a conservatory with a piece of cable cause we couldn't get into the property, all fine and dandy in the end.

put incoming in connector, finished rest of second fix then found the foreman wandering nearby and managed to get the key
