I have worked telecommunications since 1973. I first did it because i was single and made good money so i enjoyed the traveling and partying. I was on the road installing central offices and line additions for 16 years for General Telephone before I quit working on the road and went to work for a phone company specializing in fiber optic communitions.. We owned UUnet which was one of the first commercial Internet service providers. We basically help build the early internet network...

Just sayin'...
Recent postings have been informational, fresh, relevant, strange, thought provoking, funny, sad, kind, mean, borderline inappropriate, yet continuous.
I like it!
Peace ✌

Yeah. I like it better'n the other few I read. Decided to become a Charter Member. I don't think that was available 9 years ago.

Hey, CK. Send me a three way from Gold Star. It's been 6 years.:laughing7:

To be honest I miss Plehbah, always enjoyed his threads even though I didn't always agree with him....

Agree. He was very intelligent on many subjects and opinionated for sure. Great guy.

Hmmmm was a fun one. Every chip out of a rock and scraped barrk off a tree was significant.

We'd be up to our hips in treasure if his leads all panned out.

You know what life on the road is like for sure then. I feel the same way about it myself, it was fun at first but has grown old because I have. :laughing7:

I miss out on a lot and have lost touch with many of friends, sure wish I could find a job at home paying what this one does.

Well I must say Tnet is one if not the best. Been here since 06, actually before that but never registered, remember Jeff being one of the only mods, yeah he was kept busy. I remember the splits the community had and the friendships gained, all in all still here although off and on, depends on the seasons.

I'm an Industrial Painter, I mainly just do bridges now but I have worked in/on chemical plants, power plants, steel mills, coal mines, water towers, electrical towers, electric and gas transmission stations, smoke stacks, and just about anything else that is high and scary and painted.

I have done commercial work in nursing homes and department stores, not bad work, definitely a lot safer but I make ALOT more on the bridges.
