I'm An Arsehole


Hey guys,

I've been snooping around here for a little while now, and have been posting recently (Been going to school). And i haven't introduced myself yet. Hence the title (I'm not a complete arsehole ). I have been creeping up in the attic listening to what everybody has to say, and coming down when the coast is clear to snatch a quick sandwich.

Anyways...

Hi, I'm Bill, I come from New Brunswick Canada, Saint John to be pacific. I work for the family company, started out as a labour when i was 16, worked every summer, so i decided when i got out of high school i was going to jump into the trades, i originally looking to be a electrician but after a long talk with my grandfather i decided on going through with carpentery. 5th generation in my family, so i guess it was in my blood eh.

Been going through the apprenticeship here, im in school now writing my 2nd block. Actually i'll be writing the exam this friday. If all is well be back to work next tuesday, can't wait.

Well folks, that is me in the nutshell...Im outta here!

OH yeah! before i go. Great site, some really good information on here, people really seem to know there stuff. Keep'er up!

Now im gone...

Waiiiiit a second! Gotta give credit where credit is due, Mr. greg24k was the one that made me do this, he pointed out to another member to introduce themselves and that is what got me to do this!

Okay.....Now Im Gone!


-Bill

Welcome Bill

That's a pretty impressive repertoire ....but 16s a bit late to get in ......I was forced to carve a makeshift cabin in the woods with a plastic spork at the age of one day because my parents we're shot running from the hospital........ we'll that's what it's going to say in the book anyway.

The Spork!!
Sporks are like the Michael Jordan’s of the utensil universe. They can do it all.
Eating soup? No problem… slurp from your spork.
Have delicious sushi rolls on your plate? Spork them up like nobodies lookin’!
Want to impress your hot date?Nothing says high class like a stylish spork.

Welcome Bill. Had an East Coaster working for me years ago. Best carpenter I ever saw, bar none. So expect a lot from you. Five generations, it's in your blood man, no sweat. I'm only 3rd generation.

Oh, and only half of us are crazy!
