As they say... it's who you know. In 2003 it was suggested to me by a friend, since I was having a hard time finding work that I should try going at it on my own. So I did. I knew some worksite foremen who introduced me to a few electricians. Most of which confessed they really fisliked working with communications or low voltage line and wanted to focus on the high voltage side. I offered yo aleviate their woes and take care of it for them gor a more than reasonable rate. Projects were few and scattered. Did not make.much of a profit... but it was more-so a pleasure doing the work as I would rather be doing something than nothing at all.
