semi newbi
Hi all,
I've been lurking on this forum for 3 years and I think it's time to write something.
I've been working in HVAC for the past 6 years and started working at Trane in Holland last monday.
I really enjoy reading the forum!
Thanks for "wasting" my time the last 3 years!

Re: semi newbi
Sanderh,
Welcome from 'your neighbour' Peter.
Er zijn hier heel weinig Nederlanders die posten, dus je vertegenwoordigd hier zowat 'de Ollanders' zoals wij hier plegen te zeggen.
Doei.
It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

Re: semi newbi
Nice! I've thought about starting my own company, but my wife is against it and that's about the worst start!

GOOD LUCK
