Looking at relocation from California to the great state of Texas. Austin Energy is in my sights and looking for any information on them. Work environment, safety, Pay, and benefits are some of the...
Not much loop feed at this place. Also the company doesn't repair bad cable just stand off and close the normal open. Then it's stay this way for months if not years. Also most of their elbows are...
Working for a IOU that wants the lineman to change out UG/Padmount TX keeping the feed through energized at the work location. My experience tells me this is not a good practice and is an accident...
Without knowing all the facts I really can't say much about the employee refusing to do the work. I would say is that if the pole is not down on the ground and wire is up then it should be done...
Noticed a bunch of jobs being posted for lineman at PG&E. Some are lineman and others are for supervisor. The amount of jobs being posted does concern me a bit. Usually good places to work don't...
Moving to texas and I'm looking into this company. Does anyone know anyone that works or have worked for them? If so please inbox me I have many questions. Thank you all and be safe.
Not a bad place but no pension and medical at retirement. If your ok with that than go for it.
if the work was accessible from a bucket he shouldnt have been climbing that pole. that's just another unnecessary risk to take. our job is so dangerous to begin with that if you can minimize the...
PM I have a few questions? thanks
Still sounds good though. I'll try to push the bonus just to see what I can get. The HR person wouldn't tell me how much just that it was good and negotiable. My biggest issue is my lady. She is...
that sounds good. What type of system is it Wye or Delta? Also How much climbing do they do. We climb about 2 time a week. Not to bad though. I just have to get the old lady to buy into it. We...
There more to this proposal it's just that our union hasn't figured it out. There playing chess again. Setting us up for the big move. Our union also said the company is making record profits. I'd...
Thanks West Coast. I'm only asking because we had a few lineman a few years back go to California and they didn't like it at all. most of them came back home. Some said the work practices were...
OK just got a fed ex envelope with a bunch of information for SDGE. I'm starting the hiring process today. I would like to get more information on SDGE. Also I've never been to San Diego so i'm a...
who makes the rules? Come on now. rolling over in there graves I don't think so. People will come here by any means they can. If a person situation is so unbearable I don't think they would care...
First off all of you on here have a background that lead back to imigration. Weather it be your great,great, grandfather or so on. Irish,italians,etc where all imigrants at one point. Don't be so...
do you get medical when you retire. It sound real good.
you can put the ground rod next to the pole once the hole is dug out. If you can't get it in next to the pole you can try to put a rod further away from the pole and just run the ground wire to it. ...
hey west coast. do you know how much overtime they get in SDG&E? Does it balance out with the cost of living? What do lineman there average a year? Also do you know if they offer medical at...
PSE&G. take care be safe. nice job on the last contract wish more of us would stand up to these companies trying to take,take,take.
lol I can't disclose that now. lol I see your from jersey too. I think you work for the same company though. So you know what I"m talking about. :)
yeah i guess but where I work it's not really like that. We all work well together and you know who knows what. there people where I work at that have 20+ years and don't know which way is up. I'm...
when you make journeyman you still have steps at that classification. total is 5 years to reach top step.
better watch your 10 year old then. lol take care old timer. sorry the real lineman. give me a break. I'm glad i can give you something to talk about now.
Seen them like you to. I guess you were born with a line wrench instead of a rattle. lol good luck and be safe loser. Hows that service coming still on it. Your probably going to be thinking about...
