John Cavuoto moved to Western Australia in 1981, seeking employment with the local energy provider. The provider rejected John’s “dubious trade certificate, ” and that was the beginning of all the fun.

John takes us through a journey that many others had suffered before him. However, there was a notable difference: John, along with a number of supporting, like-minded agitators, began what was to be a do-or-die mission. The electrical utility was at times dragged kicking and screaming from its aloof, autocratic business position to face up to twenty-first century business and community expectations.
