He put his name to it, not a bit of copper in sight and still working (I presume). 50 years old install, how many on here could claim that.

Doing a good job, for a fair price.
And being able to earn enough to support your family.
In a world where there are more Qualified Cowboys than Sparkies.
Never use to be that way, but sure is these days.
PRIDE now there's a word from the past.

Always sign and date my panels. Occasional comments too - one time I found someone had made a pigs ear of adding some circuits so I put an arrow pointing at them and a cheeky note saying they weren't my work!

It's rare to find decent work these days. This is the crap I found today. don't know why they bothered with the RCD in the second photo as everything is on the non RCD side. can't be bothered to fix a fault maybe? https://www.dropbox.com/sc/0huge415nf4cru5/AAAYTfk6JtUmDdNbpfd7sE_Ea
