I ran across the 8th TX state licensed journeyman who is printing business cards and running adds soliliciting electrical work when In my opinion they have absolutely no right doing so. I bid a $6000 job today and the GC told me the last guy said he could do it for $3000. When I finally stopped laughing I asked him to show me the bid. He pulled a business card from his wallet that said "Joe Wannabe Electric - Licensed Journeyman", and on the back was scribbled $3000. So I called Joe up and found out he doesn't have a Masters license. Do you guys have to put up with crap like this in your area? I plan on calling the city inspector when the job gets started and see if an electrical permit was issued. I have turned guys like this in before but nothing ever comes from it. Where do these journeyman get off advertising they are an electrical contractor? I guess I'm just hacked off because I spent a year just studying for my masters before I started my business.
