I had my exam today, and I passed. It was an oral exam, and was extremely tough. I studied for 1 1/2 years, and now it is finally over, I am a journeyman splicer. Now I can get back to the matter at hand, has anyone seen my rod??? :cool:

Congrats Man!
Does this mean you get a raise?
In the chef-type world we have the same thing...study for years to take a week-long test that is absolute hell, and all you get afterwards are some nice letters to post after your name (like CEC or CCE). To get the CMC its a week of written tests and a week of practical exams with you and four judges. I try to keep away from these things as much as possible!
You the Man,
Your Pal,
Rick

Bloo thanks party time it is.

Swede My shoulders do feel lighter today, it feels good to come home and not have to study.


Slip thats a good idea I naver thought of that thanks.

BM you will never be safe I will hunt you down.... oops wrong movie, take me fishing!!!!

Rick I get a very handsome raise, and seniority over guys with 25 years who were too lazy to put the time in to study.

Gb and Saltheart , GS , and Fishpart thanks, let the fishing begin is right.

Chris Red tracer, slate/white binder, violet/brown pair, now you can fix that open tomorrow and take credit for it, and that will be 100 smackers :D

John I have a helper, but I treat him with respect, I pick it up myself, while he is buying me lunch. :D
