so i work for an small electrical contractor (its just me and my boss). We was working late tonight cause were staying busy and he gets a call on his phone about 6. Our freakin shop was on fire. I have no idea how a pole shed can burn but this one found a way. So by the time we got there the roof collapsed. Theres goes the boom truck, trencher, wire cart trailer thing that holds spools of wire, and all that inventory. All we got is our 2 vans and what was in em. Shit, where do ya start?

ya he does but i dont know if its for replacement or value or whatever you wanna call it. But i dont know how you would walk through where had inventory and say, "Oh ya, there was 23 QO 20 amp breakers there, and 12 homeline breakers there." And i drove out there again to see waht was going on and the whole building is gone, the poles and all. All you can see is the chared boom truck and trencher sitting there. :(

That's a shame... If he has regular insurance it should replace some of it. Get what he can and go to work. Used Ditch witches and bucket trucks out there. Phone Companies and Electric Companies plus more. Get the one you need the most if you have can not replace it all.

Good Luck... Get that fire bug! Could be arson. Hopely the fire dept will check for it.

I've had my house burn down twice when I was a kid. It's no fun starting over. But you can't just quit.
