Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted May 22, 2021 Super User Posted May 22, 2021 Greetings and Blessings fellow fisher people! I have lived like a straight up gypsy rock star the last three years. Being blessed with the ability to travel and work this country is amazing. The experiences and all that of different places. Currently I am chilling at home with my Old Lady, my 18 month old, and two of my other four boys. I figured this to be more of a relevant forum to post my introduction. Being as I've been here forever and day. I'm just a gypsy on this long wandering road. Here and there and gone again. I don't know where I'm going, but I sure know where a I've been. 1 Quote

Glad to see you are still above the ground as well! Yeah, still powering and building the country. One conduit and wire at a time. Work is booming right now. The whole country is pretty much wide open again. Its a great time to be an electrician. If you aint clearing 6 figures a year, you either aint trying for it, or you are under a rock somewhere. Me personally, I prefer to get my magic number, and then take off 2 or 3 months over the year. If I aint have all these kids, I could probably only work 6 months a year and live extremely comfortably. Alas, this is my lot I drew, and I must work to grow and raise these giant monster children, that will one day conquer the world!!!!!! Quote

You still in Birmingham? I'm still in Chicago. I now run a commercial/industrial hvac/r supply house. Not sure if I was a grandpa last time you were here but he's gonna be 4 in 2 months. 1 Quote

Congrats grandpappy!!! Thats so dope!!! I'm still in Birmingham. I've started over-wintering down here. Then heading back North in the late spring and summer. I beleive you were just getting started in the supply business when I left the last time. My eldest is about to turn 13 so better still have time left before I become a grandad. This year is different though. At least for right now it is, anyway. I need some family and home time now. I've got myself to the point that I can work 50, sometimes 40 hours a week at home and still afford to live. It's nice to get to see my wife and all the kids every day, and every other weekend, too. I still love the road though. At some point I will have to answer her call again. She is always calling and always waiting. She beckons to you and welcomes you with arms wide open. She is a fickle beast, she is. Dangerous in her promises of wealth and fulfillment of desire. The rewards are amazing, however the failures can be disastrous. She has claimed countless lives, marriages, dreams, and even somes sanity. Yet despite the vast temptations and the dangers, we continue to answer her call... My newest venture as of right now, is in epic style, non rhyming poetry. You may snap your fingers in applause now... 2 Quote

It's good work for sure, doesn't always pay as high as the other trades. However, as long as you are willing to travel there is almost always work somewhere. It may be on the other side of the country, but it's still there. 1 Quote
