What PLC systems you work on?
modicon, omron, siemens and a bit of allen bradley
Nice. We have Allen Bradleys at work, and some Bristol Babcock RTU's on transmission.
How do you find Allen Bradley? like the Tech support you get?? or you not a priority?
I personally favour Omron and Mitsubishi.
Dont deal with there tech support. I work in the maintaince department so only deal with them when they go wrong or small upgrades etc
At college we used mitsubishi which i didnt really get on with very well, but since getting on the Allen Bradleys at work, ive much prefered them.
your very very lucky then! Allen Bradley have "If your names not down, your not getting Support" look on life! one of my work mates does alot with AB and Siemens and has the same opinion of Mitsi, same as me, its a nasty package to work with compared to some of the other aviliable.
Modicon is Telemec, which is now Group Schinder.....They are taking over the world they are!

FLOL at rolling the Fork Lift into the van!
Ive not had to many, charged the odd invoice incorrectly so lost out on £500 probably over four years.
A few small ones when I worked in the warehouse at Sainsbury's. Ripped the pallet truck chargers off the wall once as I didn't realise I had driven over the cables. No chargers for 24 hours, oops! Another one was when I didn't notice the step ladder built into the trailer was not in properly and lifted the scissor lift up which tried to lift the back of the trailer. Bent the ladder so bad it wouldn't go in or out and it broke the lift I got them out of loads of other shit and saved them money at times so probably cancels it out.

havnt had any major mistakes personally but my mate worked in a garage selling tractors and trailers. Customer bought a trailer so my mate went hooked the trailer on to bring it to the customer who was at the bottom of the hill.
Hadnt hooked the trailer on properly it rolled back and pinned the customer between the door of his car

I've made a few small errors, but any error I make costs me and me only so I've learnt from the little mistakes, think the worst boo boo has cost me about £500 tops.

A bloke my boss used to work with one drilled through every load bearing beam on a new build house to run a pipe through, the whole roof had to be take off and a lot of the house stripped back.
Same bloke also managed to connect gas supply to water.
He also flooded someones garage which was full of brand new furniture.
A mate of mine has done the hot water to the toilet thing.
