Re: Im still digging drops


im not tryin to impress anyone, i go out of my way to get the work, if i have to. ill go all over the states if i have to to get the work, i know what im after, i know what to barter on with people, i just dont understand how people aint makin money in drops,  well actually now days i beeleeve it,  and dont get me wrong, i never said it was easy to get the right prices and the price you want, i know it aint always easy, and i dont have a problem with arial techs or nuthin like that, i have a problem with arial techs down grading on the drop guys, theres my problem. sure diggin is easy in SUM places where im at right now, this ground is like rock especially in the summer, diggin by hand  aint even an option in the summer time, and as well were aint doin direct bury out here  were burying all conduit on all jobs for all cable,  no options on that. now back home in south fl diggin drops was easy, is all direct bury, and who ever is out there diggin with a shovel then you aint gunna make no money doin drops, especially if u gotta dog by hand, we dont even use shovels for diggin by hand we use chunkers, sod splitter whompers  man killers  wedges  wat ever u wanna call them, if i want sumthin im goin after it, where ever i gotta go ta get im there, if i hav ta drive half way acropss country to get teh price i want for doin drops then goddamn it  i will  and have, and ill be diggin and boreing and all that shit for the rest of my life  i dont think ill ever go back to arialif sumone is really having a hard time makin money doin drops, then call around to other places  the best place one or anyone can make money doin drops is  contract with the phone companies,  they pay way more then cable ever will or ever can. and you get a lil more slack when burying phone drops then you do in any department of cable, the good thing with drops is  theres always sumone lukin for drop bury guys   no matter where u go,  eventually  all the arial is guna be hung every where, ok and then what after that? drops aree always gettin cut  and damaged every where,
