OUR DEAR FRIEND HAS CANCER FCS

[fcs]

Hey Bret how did things go with the interviews? Have you chosen a company yet?

Not yet. truned down one this week. Have one that a good offer. one I not sure they will make a offer in time.

[Tiger93rsl]

Is that the same one you were fighting a few months back?

Good luck.

Yep thats the one. The same guy that told me he was going to change all the filters before they stocked the store. All the units I personally changed filters in are running fine. The ones he said he would do and never did are all iced up full of product. And so the story goes.

Oh yes it's going to be sunny and 55º all weekend.

good news

Well it will be their loss, is it one that you want pretty bad?

Tough to reverse it, the wires are only as thick as your thumb and cut to length.

It's a rack of 5 recips, anyway.

Just a pain sitting here on pins and needles waiting for the damn phone to ring.

Sparky's weren't the last one's out of the bar.....but.....I'll let you fill in the blank.......
The one I always liked was 'I just f--ing put power to it....anything else is not my problem'....then you find out they couldn't read the nameplate and undersized the conductor....and aren't on 24 hour service...

Believe me, Doug, I have no love for sparky.

Called him at 2ish yesterday. Hey, this breaker you all put in won't hold for more than 5 minutes and it's running about 125 degrees surface temp in a 55 degree room with all the covers off the panel and a fan running on it. I'm keeping the amperage under 70% of rating and it still trips.

Sparky's answer. I can be there by 7 or 7:30.

Thanks, scooter. That will be a BIG help.

thanks,
yup it one I been very interested in. Inview with VP of Area Went Ok not sure how to read her thought. However I was very Impressed with the company and the other VP and Mangers I interviewed with in the other 2 interviews.

He F's it up and walks away

[jpsmith1cm]

He has no concept of the magnitude of what we are dealing with.

Hospitals need power 100% of the time.

Server rooms same thing.

Grocery stores and cold storage facilities are pretty close to next on that list.

I don't think that they get it.

Funny how a short conversation with the store owner got a LOT faster results. I'll be there at 7 turned into see you in 10 minutes.

[james80031]

I bet that's what it is too, or the fact that they never changed the filters after they installed the system. The funny thing is it's not the manager that called me it's another "contractor" that thinks superheat is what comes out of the oven when you open door.

LOL, does his name start with an R by chance?

night guys

[Bubbleheadski]

Im starting to sense some sexual tension between Doug and TB.

Syphilis?

[Bubbleheadski]

Yep, just got home from hauling my first load over. It's great to be back in a house. Then I just got a call on a supermarket so it looks like it's going to be a busy weekend. No rest for the best.

HHmmmm never thought of it that way! Seems funny how I busted my buttocks the week before on call and had 66 hrs. Then got sick this week.... and when the other tech had the on call last weekend.... as cold as it was... he had one call Friday night and none saturday or sunday. I started on call tonight.... suppose to be warmer (around 50 or so but they have been off by 5-7 degrees.) and wathc... I bet I will miss all my football games. HHmmmm Nope.. I wont let it happen. The Colts game is on at 8 and I am not required to go out after 8. I will wait till midnight if I have to go!!!! (yah right).
