Wow Shaun

 

[chris watkins]

I am too but he's dragging up all sorts of old threads and reading more and more Gas stuff formulating what sounds like a plan as to how he can do more and he's not even Gas Safe yet

"Hi, Im looking for work as a plumber. I have a number of years experience and have recently passed the plumbing and heating CSCS test. I do not have the card as it seems to be less than easy to get. I have never done site plumbing but have done call-out work for a number of years, ie. repairs/emergencies/maintenance.

I have passed nearly all my gas training/exams but still have a bit left to go back and retake, later this month. I have been out of the trade for a few years, working in security but now want to return, hopefully with gas registration.

I drive, am a non smoker and have a car but no van. Based near Gatwick. Thankyou".

He posted his background, as above, so if he is to be believed he has limited plumbing & heating install experienced but does not have NVQ so can't get CSCS and is work towards ACS.

Good sleuth work mate. The way he words things just set me worrying

 

[jonnyswamp]

He's nearly commercial you know
He'll want to head up the gassafe inspection team next

 

[Riley]

It's terrifying mate I don't think he's even swung an analyser in anger yet and he's talking about doing commercial. It's all very well having a plan but Christ a little realism and humility goes a long way

I can never understand why everyone want to become a gas engineer when they know nothing about plumbing.
How do they think they can manage not knowing the basics

 

[Riley]

There's been the annual influx on here

 

[rpm]

I don`t feel he is being straight with you guys, feel he is just drip feeding to keep the thread going.

St Google?

 

[Riley]

I genuinely think a lot of them think no further than oh I can fit boilers there'll be loads of work but don't even know how to get the pipes to the boiler. They just think it's easy money

 

[Scott_D]

Or the people who sell them the course places are very convincing

 

[Riley]

Yes very true. Shouldn't be allowed really

Totally agree ,

However i don't blame the guys/girls going on these courses more a case of how its sold . This you can earn 50 k a year etc etc .
To me thats potentially false advertising and surprised trading standards have not got involved.

Just seems to be more and more of them though.
