FOX-
I work heavy equipment and construction for a living. From what you describe, (if true
) cost the construction company TENS of THOUSANDS of dollars! Those locates are expensive, they are there for a reason. I am talking about MILLIONS of dollars worth of liability if a fiber line is hit. Or somebodys life if a gas/electric line is hit.
This caused days of downtime for the crews, this is not some BS prank. If you did do this and get caught, some supers/contractors I know would think about killing you. At least, you would go to jail, or get the living shit beat out of you.
Thanks fox, on behaf of the poor blue collar guy whose week you ruined.
These numbers are if the job is small 2-3 houses, if it is a really big job, it will get very expensive for those guys.
