I told him I wasn't going to do that because I don't like heights and I wasn't real fond of working with 220, especially in a cold rain. NOTE: That fellow wired a lot of stuff "hot" to save time -

About then some guys were in this construction shack and mentioned that the white panel van was in the way and needed to be moved. My boss told me to go out and move the van.

Yep, you guessed it I backed it into the side of a pickup truck. I walked into the construction shack and loudly asked who owned the cream colored Ford pickup with a dent in the drivers side door. This big ol burly man said "I do - but it doesn't have a dent in the door"

So, that ended my career as an electrician -
