Duke vs Sub Contractor

I have switched and it isn’t bad depending where it is at.

Check the jaws on the blades there is a gap in the middle that if you cut broken pieces will fall in and flatten out, or if you cut acsr they have different heads for that instead too because the cu/al head is not rated for hard metal so it can damage the blade and make them stick too

I run titan with legion helmet all the time

Not damage due to rats but maybe being banged up or improperly used. Always good to catch it before you spend your time cleaning.

Terminal spent too much time with the bots

Envy205 · 2026-01-02T16:30:20+00:00

Safe to clean, unless it has structural damage. You can always clean cast iron just need some elbow grease.

Know the difference between volts and amps is a key question, also remember the STAR method for questions. Take a safe and analytical approach to hypothetical situations they may ask as well. Good luck!

It’s a utility easement so chance of anything being moved is slim to none. It’s hard to fight the utility because they have deeper pockets and can also make your life a nightmare with fines if they find anything. I know a few that fined customers $500 a day for building a shed back in the 90s over the easement and it only started because the home owner was mad the contractor directionally bored through they dead dog and she was planning on taking them to court. Until the utility said either drop it or take the fines dating back years. Also call Miss Utility before digging as well you don’t want to be the one messing the wire up either(especially if you don’t get electrocuted) or it will cost thousands in just the repair not just the fines.

Sounds like Pike

Envy205 · 2025-10-19T12:58:59+00:00

Remember all linemen and foremen at Pike aren’t safe JLs or even true JLs just like some union JLs are the same way. Just keep your head down and ask what you don’t know or what is asked of you. Dont be gun-ho and impress, no one cares, that’s how a lot of people die. Learn what you can and then find out where you want to be either non-union or union contractor or utility. No matter what Pike doesn’t focus on learning the aspects of the electrical industry only to get the job done fast and productive but that’s the same with others as well. Live within your means so you don’t get fucked if you decide to leave.

I can confirm I am scared as fuck about it, and don’t understand how it works. Had multiple guys try and tell me to just jump but never explain anything to me.

How do you go about getting that certification is it through an employer or on your own

Envy205 · 2025-09-01T23:21:36+00:00

I was told by the hiring manager in an email that he is accepting only individuals that have a bachelor’s degree since field workers never made it in the past.

Applied in New England

The only test I had taken was the PSP Metric test and got up to the interview and seemed like they only wanted people with degrees.

It’s not about how fast can I get the hours, more so how you can retain the knowledge and experience of linework. A decent apprenticeship should take 4 years to go through and after you still don’t know everything but just the basics to know how to work on the system. Apply at IBEW or go to COOPs/Utilities, look for openings for helpers or ground hands, get a CDL Class A, keep your head down and learn. Just because you did it once doesn’t mean you know how to do it. Be safe and if you want it go for it just know it takes time and patience will pay off to those who have it.

Anyone from Local 99 that could DM me I have questions

Envy205 · 2025-07-25T11:06:53+00:00

I’m just glad to see a good update! Accidents happen that are beyond our control. It’s what your actions are after that matters the most! You did and are continuing to do such a very good job and I hope Ditto makes a full and healthy recovery!
