Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Our main guy does both, our second guy does low voltage and surveillance systems and is a comm cable running fiend.

Beautiful work, hopefully he can do it. He's retiring next year, unfortunately, though it's always nice to have electricians on back up so keep any suggestions coming for Solano area.

 

Agreed. I can run cat 5 but im over qualified to do so. Also the low voltage techs will have more experience and tools to do it right and cost you less. They generally are less expensive and thats all they do. I know how to and do my own but im not certified in data comm. But im certified as a general electrician.

 

Yeah, that's the thing. You can get someone who does a good job or a hack. The later sucks. I only know peeps from the South Bay. But you could try Business Telephone Exchange in Campbell. They do some structured cabling and biz telephone installs

 

My dad made our cables and then stopped for about a decade, then could never get good at it again. Literally spending an hour and a half trying to get a good connection on the RJ45.

And it still didn't work.

So he gave all of the wiring equipment away and we have used pre made cables since, except when new runs are needed then they're farmed out to an electrician to run them through walls and then adding boxes so we can just plug into them and keep things clean.

 

dammit James

 

Its pretty straight forward. I have the tools and tester, what restaurant?.. how soon you looking to do the work? If your will to do it on the side i could help you knock it out. If your just rerouting a few cables and adding boxes is easy. If you need it asap i would a service tech.

 

Trying to think of why a goat is inside a Starbucks.

 

I'll let you know. Should know if the other guy is GTG by 3.

 

Technically that'd be their wife.

 

You're a nice boy.

 

did you just call me a wife?

 

i do like my boots

 

Hey folks if y'all wouldn't mind taking a second to go vote for my good buddy Ryan Scripps I would really appreciate it. Local guy with tons of talent and a good heart. Just follow the link. Thanks! http://countrysummer.com/contender-challenge/

 

Starbucks is great on the road when you want to use a bathroom that doesn't require suppressing your gag reflex. I usually leave there with an empty bladder, decent black coffee, and a goddamn Jack Johnson song stuck in my head.

 

....eh I carry a urinal...and if I need a coffee I'd rather pull over drop the tail gate fire up the stove and make stove-top spresso...real problem is I can only drink PEET's French roast..

 

So this happened tonight...

 

Standard equipment for me too.



Except for when I treat myself and get a half caf, nonfat, soy, double shot, extra whip, caramel machiado, with a shot of cherry Torani sauce.
