Well the reason I made a post asking for trig help was because I�m studying for a test that should help me increase my chances of getting accepted to the lineman�s union, which is not easy. It�s the �Technical Math� test for the NJATC (National Joint Apprenticeship And Training Committee.) (http://www.njatc.org/index.aspx) I�ve thought about it and I think I�d like to be a high voltage lineman. Not the electricity lines that go from house to house, the high voltage (110 kV or above) transmission lines.

They�ve always fascinated me. Our culture is always going to use electricity no matter how it�s made we are going to supply it the same way. And with the increasing bad weather we seem to be getting and that most of the transmission lines in this country are older than I am, I think there�s some job security there too. :) Oh and heights don�t bother me, I love to climb hell it�s one of my hobbies.
But in this job you don�t always have to climb�
I wanna do this!
