your fellow installer

[loop3]

Just a thought. As a fully qualified spark, how do you feel about the DI ? I like everyone to make a living and all, but hell! I just ain't got no love for em.

Dimestic installer= plastic electrician

There's no point getting on your high horse thinking time served sparks deserve all the work. Domestic installers and short sparky courses are here to stay for now so, best advice is to shut and put up.

i wonder how the medical profession would react to surgeons carrying out operations after a 5 week course, or the legal profession react to Electrical Trainee barristers.

Wouldn't last 5 minutes but not really a good comparison

 

[telectrix]

why not? both professions as well as ours are responsible for peoples' lives.

On top of this, the consumer doesn't really understand part p and full scope, and will hire any of the two do to full scope work.

What sort of "full scope" work do you think a consumer will be hiring a part p registered person to do, that will be beyond their capabilities?

where does loop3 want to go with this topic ? who knows.
anyways , i couldnt give a fig about domestic work , its dull , tedious and the Electrical Trainee / DI is welcome to it.
as to my opinions on their role within the industry , well i need someone to rip into on the forum being the cruel troll that i am.
its all a bit meh if you ask me.

 

[i=p/u]

maybe we can blame the likes of the old eectricians who got a book on the shelves like alan lynch,

his books say electrical work isnt hard, testing isint hard , fault finding isnt hard all logical after you read the book..

get your customers for now, do a good job and youl always be back..

 

[GLENNSPARK]

Righty o! Well I must say I haven't ever met or seen any work done by one! But read a lot on here about what they get up to.

well just hang about for a bit in here......wont be long before some horror show pics come in.....

Eh?....so does that mean were all supposed to `put up n shut up` with them just floating in after a few weeks `intensive training`?...lol...

 

[GLENNSPARK]

There’s no need to love or hate the five week wonders. It's completely self policing. If their method of training is so much more superior than ours, then evolution will see to it that they succeed and if not it will all go horribly wrong for them.

no it wont....caus the scams dont give a damn....

Depends on what language they speak I suppose, well according to a few on here, A 3 year-4Year course is preferable but hey it is only 3 wires and a plug top hey???????????
