Man, you're fast...you answered before I could delete. Thanks.

I looked up the licensing rules on the Texas licensing website and got my answers...a journeyman can supervise an apprentice.

It's irritating though that the electricians, who spit tobacco on my garage floors, leave spit cups around the house and trample my wood floors that are acclimating don't know more about wiring a house than they do. They're ok but I expect more from both of them.

I was told that two (2) electricans would be wiring my house and the rate would be $45 per man hour (90 total). And that's fine with me...BUT when I watch them and later talk with them, it's clear that the Journeyman is spending too much of my $90/hour teaching the apprentice how to do the work. That's irritating too.

So I fired them too.

Now I have to go out and find another electrician before the word gets out on me that I'm a pain in the ass to work for.
