Manager of Electric Operations for a small municipality.

I do everything but actually work on the lines. Fun job, mostly inside which is nice this time of year.

Pretty sure they are pretty big up there Bobby. That's where they are based out of. One of my college buddies who used to be a PE for us recently switched from another Seattle GC to BN. They also have a pretty big presence in SD

I checked today and Ron is on the project we are doing in Van Nuys. I deal with Howard mostly.
He’s a good guy. Used to be a business rep but went back into the field. I think he’s still a delegate for my local.
