i know I'm a old git,but here's one for you,been quite cold lately,got some youngsters working with us,nice & warm in the offices,when it's brekkie time,I always sit in my van,especially if it's cold outside.The lads also sit in their van,but switches the engine on,to get warm.
Me,I put on another layer of clothes,so...the vans are on tracker so they know what's happening,back at the yard,does anyone care.
In my day we just wouldn't do that,wasting diesel etc.
Last year in 30°heat,a lad sat in his van,I went over to him & said why have you got the engine running,wound down his window,I've got the air conditioning on,am I mad to get frustrated ha ha

Did you ever regret not doing it? I know several of my past colleagues who did, just out of interest.

Sorry Pete, I've just noticed your post, no never regretted it. I did 24 years working as an electrical inspector with the Council mostly to do with highways electrical stuff, streetlighting, signs, traffic signals that kind of thing. During that time I had bosses with HNC level qualifications who honestly didn't have a grasp of the basics and no practical ability, it got so frustrating and stressful that I 'escaped' with a bit of redundancy in 2014 and set up on my own. My big regret is wishing I'd done it a long time ago.

Someone who done one of these 18 day short courses certainly couldn't get one.

You may have spoken too soon by the looks of the article in this months NICEIC / ELECSA propaganda literature (Page 8)

You only need to have passed three NICEIC (assume DI is included) or Elecsa assessments as a QS to qualify for a JIB Gold card!

I haven't read it mate. Surely that's just to add QS on to your card which you must meet the criteria to get?
