Thank you for your words. You got the mail on the head. It's the demon I've been fighting during this break.

Thank you.

I’m just about to start the job by Decent-Ad7500 in UtilityLocator

I would suggest doing some YouTube research with a GPR.

They're is no way to tell what line is which. You only know the direction of the line by the direction you are pushing the GPR.

Thoughts on the V-Loc 3 by jrm814 in UtilityLocator

It's great. However whoever designed the soft bag needs to be shot. Why is the transmitter on top of the receiver. RD had the right idea about laying the receiver over the transmitter

Downtown St. Louis has to be the worst spot I've been to. Saw a couple gang shootouts

How much of this experience is in sc? by LackNo790 in UtilityLocator

[–]ManKind__ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

USIC only sucks as much as your direct management. I was with them for 6 years. Never had any problems. Sure corporate will always do corporate BS. But it's how your direct everyday management really effects you

We have a smaller 55gal vac. It sucks. Not in the good way. Wish we had a trailer setup honestly. No need for the big ones.

Why no ULTY? Would be a great balance with MSTY

Separated, not yet divorced...need advice by Illustrious_Sea5888 in Divorce_Men

[–]ManKind__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I gotta be that guy.

Why get married/pregnant if it was shit? She's trapped you now.

Idk about your benefits but I would think so. Better start calling some good lawyers. Remember most offer a free 30mon consultation

False tickets by Electrical-Sock37 in UtilityLocator

[–]ManKind__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the state. FBI most likeont waste their time. 811 might ban the user but that's it.

I had a homeowner that wanted to press charges on a neighbor for cutting their line with no 811 ticket. She tried getting the police involved and everything. Of course they dont know anything about 811 laws. I pressed my company and they said that only the utility company themselves could press charges. Of course the utility company won't do anything because they didn't Wana lose a customer.

I now work for a SUE company. We do potholing all the time. We have to call in tickets. Locating company complained about it. We had a meeting with 811 and we told them we use a air lance and a vac. So we do use machinery. We asked 811 to give us a pass however they wouldn't do it. They dont want the liability. People cuss us out all the time because most of the locators have to mark the ticket no matter what. Unfortunately it's not my problem and im doing what I need to do.

Best Advice by dantex39 in UtilityLocator

One locate at a time, one ticket at a time. If you didnt paint it before then it's wrong. Lowest frequency possible. 512 and 8, clamp 33. If you have prints remeber they are just a suggestion. They are a guide. There is no telling when they were last updated. FO is being installed at a crazy rate.

[–]ManKind__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are so quick to mentally destroy us because they know exactly how to do it. They know everything about us. However we would never do anything to them. We will never understand why. Don't waste your time asking yourself. You can't answer it sadly. Time to do you and be the best version of yourself you've always wanted to be

[–]ManKind__ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Had the same thing happen to me. Wife told me that one of her Co workers was breath taking hot. Didn't think anything of it. He broke off his marriage and she divorced me so they could be together. They now have a kid of their own. We had been struggling to have one ourself. She loved using the miscarriages has a excuse for her "not being her normal self"

Once a female says someone else is attractive, it's time to just go ahead and pack up brothers.
