Well guys I think it is time I bow out, I have had some fun on here and have seen some great threads, even though I haven't really asked for help with anything it as been a useful place to be part of.
over the last few months some of the threads have made my teeth itch, and I honestly find it scary with some of the things that get asked on here, by people who are charging people for a service that in all honesty they are not capable of doing but are getting away with it.
I am not aiming this at anyone in particular and sorry if I offend anyone it is not my intention.
so keep fighting the fight and all the best. thanks to all who made me welcome.
Regards Glenn. :seeya::seeya:
 
Glenn don't be silly, forget what you just said and stick around, I always liked your posts and think you are just getting frustrated with all the DIY crap here, chin up fella, don't over react.

What your peeved at is the future of the industry not the forum, it's being dumbed down and de skilled!.

Go if you feel you need a break!, the door will always be open whenever you wanna come back!. You will be missed so all the best!
 
GMES - i aren't tryna sound like a ----- here...

But shyte like this really annoys me, if you're gonna go just go instead of the soppy speech.

I'm obviouslly not saying go, the more sparks around here with experience the better. I aren't having a go at you - you seem like a decent lad, i've just seen a few threads like this...with people giving goodbye speeches - just do what you gotta do man.

thats what i`m tryin to say Aiden....is it pork i`m talkin to again?

here...i might just start a thread about diversity in a mo....lol....

no, not the IET kind...i`m on about the real kind....
 
It isn't the forum I have a problem with as this is a great place to hang around in even if it is just to see Glennspark getting himself into hot water or MDJ ripping some one a new backside. It just kills me to see people asking basic questions that they should no, and I know everyone needs to learn but not as a self employed person charging customers.
I will give you an example! today I picked my new mft up from the wholesalers I went with the megger 1730 / Bluetooth software all whistles .
and a lad next to me who I know Is a Electrical Trainee and sole trader pipes up that I must be doing a lot of testing to warrant one at that cost and I lost the plot with him, while trying to explain that yes I test every day the same as everyone should do as part of the job. I just wonder how many don't bother. these are the silly things that of soul destroying.
 
i know a lot of the stuff in here that gets started like threads n stuff is just total dog sh*t..like the RCD things...and about `earth bonding`...lolffs...

come on.....we all know...
yep very true, I don't like the "tap off a shower circuit" threads or the "do I need to have rcd protection in the kitchen I am wiring up" threads or the "I am part p qualified threads", it is very frustrating.
