Mining Class

You can get retraining at the Coeburn training center, I think they lost their license to do new underground papers though. All you do is watch videos and spend a little time on the computer. It's pretty boring, but they give you a break every hour and you can come whenever you want until you complete the required amount of time.

Like I said before I cant remember the guys name. But he had a classroom at Mecc and was a total [richard]. He promised us we could get KY certified but never did it.

You are thinking of Gary Wisman. He was in a car wreck a while back and got hurt pretty bad. He probably won't be doing mining classes anytime soon, afaik.

Yeh thats the name. I hate to hear about the car wreck. The guy was a prick tho.

Mining is on a roll, 5 fatals in the last 30 days.

Buster used to work some with the state as well. Good guy, let you goof off some in class, have a laugh.
