Know where your utility shut offs are located and how to turn them off/on.
Developing my career into the role of Foreman is memorable for me. Subsequently, working with apprentices and sharing the trade with young men and women and watching them grow and become successful Journeymen is a gratifying experience.
I was Foreman on several Wastewater Treatment Facility renovation/expansion projects. This often required creative thinking when executing projects while the flow of wastewater was uninterrupted. On a number of occasions, I had to plan bypass pumping large quantities of wastewater where there is no margin for error.
