plumbing experience poll

[Keefy]

4 year apprenticeship then been qualified 6 years..... It feels longer than that

It's flew by for me, I must be enjoying myself too much.

 

[Guest123]

On the poll, where's 2 months for all the fast trackers? LOL

1984 - 1992 then 2005 - the end of time.

They'll have to prise the spanner out of my cold lifeless hand to get me in the coffin.

 

[leethegasman]

4 year apprenticeship, then 20 years for good behaviour, 25 years left on sentence, but may take a gap year felt I missed out on that one.

 

[stevetheplumber]

Forty years qualified in Gas for me, did my Plumbing C&G final in '79.
Depressing eh!

Kiss kiss.

Mountainman you were qualified before most of us were born! I felt old in the merchants a while ago when the kid behind the counter said he didnt remember gazza crying in the 1990 world cup because he was born in 1995!

I have led a virtuous life of contemplation, purity and benevolence; all of which accounts for my longevity and astounding virility.

Unfortunately, honesty is not one of my strong points

Erm, I clicked the wrong button. I stopped counting my age after I turned 30!!

Seriously, I thought, must be about 15 years, and clicked it. Just added it up and it's a bit more than that. Hmmmmm, how come I'm not rich yet? The 'Sun' said I'd be loaded in no time.

mistake on your part there danny, it was actually your dad.....he said

"son, get the van loaded in no time"

 

[Dannypipe]

You have no idea how accurate that is!!

 

[Destroyer2813]

Own up who's the fast tracker with 1-2 years :cheesy:

 

[R1CKY]

What do you define as fully qualified? I started a four year apprenticeship in 2006, was out on my own at the end of the second year and had my own apprentice at the beginning of my 4th year!

Plumbing experience starts from the day you start your apprenticeship IMO, I learnt more in the first two years than I have in the last four!

 

[Dannypipe]

Every day is a school day in my opinion. Always improving and looking at better/faster/neater/cleaner - ways of doing the same things.

[Keefy]

Could add a video advert for the site on YouTube where we're all dressed in boiler suits singing;

"You can't get better
Than a fast track plumber
We're the boys to trust"

Then we all jump in the air holding hammers and flexi's.
