I worked for a few different utilities in Washington. Where are you thinking of heading to? The east side or the west side?

Well i sent out a bunch of apps to differant sides of the state. hoping to get to the wet side, up north. I seen clallam county had an opening and i filled out there app. U guys got any insides on any openings and on the puds u recommend? Im tryin to stay away from the big companys cause im sick of dealin with the bs. I figure id give my shot at workin for the poeple instead of a group of poeple that fill thier pockets with greedy cash. thanks ad ill be up there sometime soon. Oh yah sticking is cool we do a lot of backyard stuff with sticks here in cali so i have a little experiance, nothin like doin it everyday though.

The only places i worked on the wet side were, Bonneville Power and Snohomish PUD. Both great places. Did my ape at BPA and did an ape exchange at Snohomish. Where are you in Cali?
