The Undead Gateway Thread

I was actually at work all but today this week, and im not even getting paid for what im doing right now, bbut i did end up with a lot of extra material that i might just have to find something to build. Might make some shelves for the projection room. but our new sound system is gonna kick soooo much arse

Do they pay you extra tho for taking on sound responsibilities? You did have some late nights because of that

[jaged]

yeah i get paid for actually doing the lights and sound stuff. But im building the new sound booth for free cause i didnt trust maintenance to do it the way it needed to be, plus they have enough to do. And i get to BS with the electricians that are hooking up the new stuff so i really know how all the new stuff is gonna run.

It's because they have been shocked too many times!

[Moraki]

that definitely has something to do with it.

My favorite was the Boeing staff electrician that carried around what amounted to a big fork with a thick rubber handle. Apparently tracing circuits in a large facility like that is hard so he just jammed the fork in the wall and tripped the circuits.

Basically manufactures change them all the time. These are upgrades for the better, to withstand higher temps or friction additives.

hmmm, trust advice from some random techs.... or Terry Haines... hmmm

We had some electricians here doing the wiring and I asked one how many times he had been shocked. He said at least a couple times a year on small jobs. Big jobs they know better and take more precautions because those shocks will kill you.

These are Mazda techs and one of them has worked on Fords and Mazdas for over 20 years and is master certified. Plus he actually works on the CD4Es. I don't think Terry even messes with those.

but yeah, if you want to take Terry's word over Ford and people who have been certified to work on them for years, then yeah . . . you can worry about it for no real reason.
