Which mentor and why!!!!!!

G

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

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

Me, moan? Massive go wash your mouth out, you bad person.:tongue:
A mentor I would like spend time with, Tel of course he could try and convince me Beer is better than Vino, now that would be interesting.
 
Would it be too much to suggest a forum event. It would be nice to put some faces to name's.

Logistics would be difficult to please all though

Could be a problem there, several members would end up scrapping and if Tel turned up the wheels off your motor would be missing, the whole day would be very expensive :D
 
I'd like to spend a day with darkwood, I see some of his projects and feel I could help point to better more creative solutions with both of us working on the problem.
 
I’d like to meet them all find out the men and of course the woman behind the avatars and a bit of background on them all there is a wealth of knowledge on this place and some extremely knowledgeable people every day

But in particular I’d like to meet Pete, Tel, Westy, Sparkychick and MDJ they seem like they have more to them than You can really tell on a forum like some people you can sort of tell what they’d be like and others you don’t really have a clue. Plus I reckon with that motley crew there would be a good bit of banter to be had and a few good beers. Or should that be a good few beers.
 
reminds me of the scenario with the gorilla and the monkey in the jungle one day....

Gorilla says to the monkey...

Does sh*t stick to your fur?

monkey says ...Yes

so Gorilla wipes his arse on the monkey.
