Re: TSI(NO OFFENSE.)


My advice to you is to stay out of sub-contract work if you don't have very deep pockets.

> FELLOW SPLICERS, I'VE BEEN IN THIS BUISNESS FOR 7 YEARS. I'VE BEEN FORTUNATE TO HAVE WORKED WITH SOME VERY QUALITY PEOPLE. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? SEEMS TO ME (AFTER ONLY 7 YRS THIS IS WHAT I FIGURE) THAT MOST OF THE PRIMES ON MID-SIZED JOBS, ARE NOTHING MORE THAN SUB'S WHO WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO CATCH A BREAK AND LAND A PRIME. THEN DECIDES TO GET A BUNCH OF HACKS TO WORK IN-HOUSE. SOME EVEN GO AS FAR AS TO HELP SUPPLY THIER HABITS. THEN HE LNES THEM UP WITH MOST OF THE GRAVY, AND A GUY WORKING TO PUT FOOD ON HIS FAMILIES TABLE, IS FORCED TO SPLICE FOR .18 CT. A FOOT (COMPOSITE)IN THE MIDDLE OF TOWN WITH 79' SPANS ALL DAY. NOT TO MENTION THE FINANCIAL WOES OF THE CABLE COMPANIES THEMSELVES. ADELPHIA'S PROBLEMS ARE HOLDING UP WHAT LITTLE BIT OF MONEY I MADE. LOT'S OF OTHER BIGGER SUB'S ARE WAY WORSE OFF THAN I AM. DOES ANYONE SEE THINGS GETTING BETTER IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS? IF A SEASONED DOG IS INTERESTED IN RESPONDING, I'D LIKE TO HERE HOW FAR OFF MY OPINIONS ARE. (confused)(fire)(confused)
