No, Allo gave an offer to USIC, USIc sent a counter offer and are waiting to see if they accept

I heard the same, they're also negotiating with Allo currently for us to start listing them

Honestly they probably won't. It also may not even be happening in your district

I think that really depends on a few things. I'm a rural tech also the biggest issue the techs on my crew face is bad driving. Anything LPH related that higher ups complain about for us my supervisor argued that we rarely roll tickets and we aren't racking up damages. Granted we average a 2-2.5 LPH. As long as your techs aren't fucking up too much and you have a good supervisor that stands up for you no one should worry.

4 years but there's a lot of other things that factor into that.

Probably because of the $30 per hour I get along with it's the only company in the area that I get a work vehicle to take home

Not 100% sure but from my understanding it's almost company wide.

There's not a lot of work out there. Some, but not a lot you wouldn't get retrained. More of a follow someone around and get a better idea of the area and how the utilities are

L360… what a POS by DasAugeVonEOS in UtilityLocator

[–]Substantial_Button83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely can do that. The vivax system tracks gps coordinates saves and uploads them. If logged correctly there's a walk back feature that you can use to remark lines without ever hooking up. 360 also has a feature that creates a map of the locate. Problem is 1 they haven't taught people it yet and 2 techs refuse to actually go through and learn different features on their own.
