    Default welcome me

    I'm James, aka Vandilizer.
    I work a Columbia Gas contract. It sucks.
    I love doing the job, but it has gotten to be too much politics.
    I've been locating for about 9 years. Holla!

    Welcome aboard James. Hope you enjoy reading the posts and adding your take on some of the subjects.

    Have fun surfing around the forums.

    Jim

    P.S. I've been in the business about 11 years and yes the politics definately gets in the way of locating but if you learn to ignore the politics the best you can it still is a very good job.

    Welcome James,

    There is a lot of politics in the locating buisness as in any buisness.

    I have been in this line of work for 20+ years. Hang in there.

    Welcome J man,

    I try to make members feel at home...

    Recreating that political atmosphere on the cablevine hopefully gives the site a more welcome and homely appeal...
