    Default Hey all!

    I've been a locator for over a year now. My first dig season has had it's ups and downs. AT&T, Consumers, Verizon, and Comcast is the majority of the customers on the tickets. I love the work and the guys I'm with. There are many improvements I would like to make to my company, but as you all know, that's not going to happen. I've been reading the posts for about a week now with some excitement that I'm not out there all alone. The same problems and gripes that I see and hear from other Techs seem to be consistant throughout the industry. I hope I can offer some help and learn a lot more in the process. Good luck out there! Stay positive!

    P.S.- Can I just get a tracer at least 50% of the time AT&T?

    I don't think it could be any more crazy than last dig season, so this year should be solid. Good crew, Sup, and equipment upgrade. In a pefect world, there would be a raise in there too.........ha, ha!

    Thats sweet! I'm ready for the maddnes! The thing I like the most is a challenge, just getting bored some doing lot tickets, I kind of like doing projects, or heavily congested area's. Good luck on raise, maybe you'll get what you deserve! I was shocked when we was CLS and I got my one year raise.
