    Question: How can you tell a Swamp trained "apprentice?"

    Answer: It's the one with 5 pieces of #6 on his belt for washers and nuts.

    Answer: It's the one with the recent sunburn from that last flash he had.

    Answer: It's the one yonder gloving that 72 off the wood.

    Answer: It's the one with that fresh grove burned in the brim of his hard hat.



    I will grant you this Swampus. You a good devil's advocate and this board would be somewhat duller without you. Can you get some of your Pike buddies to start contributing also?

    I've got the 3rd one down good! I've been doing that since I was a 4th step, and continue to do it to this day! And yes, I really do enjoy gloving 34.5KV - but only from a bucket!

    Tell you what....i'm not even getting in this one......but I will tell you this.....I have worked with a bunch of linemen who play both sides of the field and i learned an old saying......" that man is so slick he can fart through silk and not leave a stain!".......I think that is what scares most of "yuns"....not you! Its a southern thang. Thats right! I'm a union brother takin up for swamp! Cuz I started out non-union and I cut my teeth on FPL's grid and anyone who can make it with no lost time injuries on this grid is someone i respect! .....bash it all you want.....it's the place that weeds the men from the boys! Versus callin yourself a lineman and comin from some little town where you may have 400 amps on a peak day....yet you still think you are better through a "book" apprenticeship! So....kiss our FLORIDA ASSES! We are the REAL hurricane heroes!!!!!!! In the words or Forest Gump....thats all I have to say about that!!!

    That just shows how new you are here....

    scabrat doesn't need our input to look the fool.

    Ask him about floating the high side neutral on a wye/wye closed bank.
    Ask him about polarity.
    Ask him about impedance.
    Ask him about slave labor in the hot sands.
    Ask him what local he supposedly belonged to "back in '74" (he won't say, because he knows we'll check).
    Ask him just about anything.

    I guess you'll just need to start your own thread. This one is "Swamp Bashin", not "LOCAL84 Bashin"...
