BELEVE ME , I AGREE WITH YOU ALL. AFTER ALMOST 40 YEARS OF TELCO SPLICING COOPER I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO TAKE SOCIAL SECURTY 9 MONTHS EARLY BECAUSE SOME FOOL IN PRIM'S MANAGMENT FIGURED TO FREEZE OUT THE 1099 GUY'S [THAT FOR 7 YEARS WAS ONLY WAY TO SPLICE FOR THEM] AND HIRE OFF THE STREET , GIVE THEM A BUCKET TRUCK AND CALL THEM CABLE SPLICERS EVEN IF THEY HAD TO GOOGLE HOW TO SPLICE IN A PED. NOW I PLAN , WHEN I GET TIME , TO SELL MY TRUCK AND TOOLS AND NOT LOOK BACK. I REFUSED TO LOSE MONEY BY GOING TO WORK FOR LOW MONEY , HELL I COULD STAY HOME AND LOSE MONEY , LOL. STICK TOGETHER OR HANG SEPERATELY !
