Which mentor and why!!!!!!

[GMES]

So I just thought I would start a little thread to see as per title which Mentor you would like to spend a day with and why you would choose that particular Mentor.
It could be because you like their forum personality or it could be because you would like to experience a day in their working life.
As a quick example I mainly do Industrial installations and testing but have done jobs in quarries, shredders, churches, foundries, blue chip companies, -40 degree freezers for logistic companies etc etc
Essex deals with the railways
Darkwood deals with machinery
And the list goes on.
So don't be shy I'm curious to see what makes you tick, I want all active trainees giving their input.
And you never know one day your dream could come true.

MDJ of course, otherwise I have huge respect for Pete and Tel, both very experienced and very helpful, Tel's humour is classic, pete's enthusiasm is second to none, both incredible guys who know how to help folk and have a laugh, I respect them both very highly, can we have a muppet of the site thread? I know exactly who to vote for

 

[Sintra]

I am employed by a company that works worldwide on contracts for the Foreign & Commonwealth office. This involves working in British Embassy's and Consulates anywhere on the planet, so far we have completed works in 47 countries and 5 continents and the list continues to grow. The work normally consists of major mechanical and electrical refurbishments to existing buildings ranging from 3 months to 3 years on any particular site. As with any jobs it has it's pros and cons. ie see the world for free but spend long periods away from home.

 

[GMES]

I wanted to tell you about Sintras job as I think it sounds amazing but considering I've just called him James bond on the phone, I didn't know whether I should Divulge his job , so sat back and hoped he would jump in.

 

[MDJ]

I work somewhere special as well, and cannot say, however sintra's job sound incredible and very interesting.

For me it is @ruston

I find him one of the most amazingly kind person you could meet on a forum.

A true gentleman.

 

[MDJ]

Yes Ruston is a fantastic fella, quite right Mate.

 

[MDJ]

GMES is cool as well, his problem is his hair, it is so bad you cannot see his face pmsl

 

[ruston]

@essex and @MDJ .
lol I am so touched .
You two stand out as well . You have both been very kind to me in the past during my troubles. I will never forget that . Thanks.

 

[GMES]

I've not heard from any trainees yet, mind you it's Saturday night and they're probably all out on the beer.
I guess it's just us sad old farts then.

 

[gazdkw82]

[gazdkw82]

I would have said hightower too but he has vanished lately

 

[MFS Electrical]

Woe is me. No one wants to spend a day with a kilt wearing jock. Not that I can really blame yous for that, I wouldn’t want to be on the ground looking up at me on a stepladder either. the female customers though they love it

Do you have any of the ‘cargo’ type kilts with pockets for tools and stuff?

 

[JAWS]

I think it would be a great privilege to spend a day with any mentor TBH and very hard to name one as they all have excellent knowledge.

Teletrix would be good, Pete would too but think he would moan at me, Essex seems a good chap, Spin London very knowledgeable , Westward think he would be great but very stern, Midwest, Richard burns the list goes on could name many more but have to be Sparky Chick for me as she's helped and gave me so much solid advice.
