Running Coax Cables to the Wall Mount Brackets Was Not Bad
I worked for my uncle one summer while I was off of school. He is an electrician so I thought it would be a good trade to get into. He made me do some stuff I really did not want to like go up into hot attics with a flashlight to pull cable or even go into dark wet crawl spaces to run conduit. But all in all I learned a lot that summer working for him. I installed over 50 wall mount brackets in a big high school that was upgrading. Each room got a wall mount bracket up high on the wall. Later I went back with a helper and ran a bunch of coax cables through the ceiling and dropped them into each room near the wall mount brackets. Running the coax cables was not bad; it was the hot temperatures and working in the building with no air conditioning that I did not like. But eventually we got all the coax cables ran and got the new flat screen televisions mounted to the wall mount brackets. All the coax cables ran back to a networking room next to the utility room. From there everything could be monitored and maintained. It was a really neat networking system and I learned so much that summer which helped me the following summer. I did not choose a career in electronics or networking but I still use my skills today when I need them.
