[QUOTE="3j7, post: 675900, member: 3531"] No worries brother! This place has turned into a nut house the last 5 years or so, and it's only getting worse... and about the print I just don't want you to get busted on it, the rock flippers ( our name for the screen jockeys that only sit at a computer all day and try to save a buck by "crunching numbers " or some other useless happy horseshit) could possibly see it, and it ain't worth your job... and yes that is exactly how bad it is... as an example of the lunacy I was working a job in a manhole run here that is known to be wet year round. The step allows 2 hours to set up, open the manhole, purge the manhole, pump the water out, identify the splice, get it out, open the splice, id the fibers, route them, splice them, then get it all together and back in the hole. Just pumping the hole (you dirty minded bastards) takes about 5 hours (850 cubic foot hole with a 2 inch electric pump). I was told by my "management team" that that extra time was " built into the step". So apparently at at&t, according to the higher ups, 2>5... nowadays I just go in, do my damn work, and ignore the rest of the crap... and the step, to put the loop back up? Isn't to tell us to do it (we know lol) but to give us TIME to do it..., and as you well know, the phone company is no longer driven by quality, but by time... sorry guys, I need to get in the woods lol Rant over Again no worries Luke And I get it about some outside guys, sometimes you just can't fix stupid... most of us aren't the sharpest forks in the drawer [/QUOTE]
