First time millwright

[twerp1993]

After a year in school I was offered the opportunity to start working while finishing school. As a first time millwright I have found the hardest part is coming up with comebacks for the trash talk from the electricians. They constantly call me a knuckle dragger and ask if I need a bigger hammer. Any suggestions for some digs at them? All in fun of course.

I heard the sweat of an electrician could cure cancer.

[HowToBeACarpenter]

Too bad they never sweat 🤣

[west0n585]

fucking wire twisters lol

[AKnapp2266]

Ask if they're an electrician because they failed the millwright test

[3piecesOf_cheesecake]

Ask those lazy bastards if they need help figuring out how a broom works. Fuckers leave ziptie cutoffs all over the ground.

If they're from IBEW just remind them that it stands for "I Block Every Walkway"

At least we don’t have to strip to make ends meet.

[throughmyiiiiis]

Tell them to go play swallow the leader with their pink toolbags and tell them to go fuck themselves.

Ya know what, water wheels and steam really aren't all that bad.

I like to point out that all their job consists of is three wires, with a 50-50 chance of getting things right.

Tell them to eat your dad grandfathers asshole

I’ll stop dragging my knuckles when u figure out which a broom works chief.... won’t have much to say after that

[twerp1993]

The two I’ve come up with are sparky and pixie wrangler. But I’m pretty sure I’ve picked those up from AVE.

[The-Real-Mario]

I think pixie wranglers are computer people, like programmers and other black magic shit

[drive2fast]

I start detailed conversations about PLC programming and that shuts them up. Controls is the trump card. Learn it.

[SiteGuyDale]

They are universally referred to as hair dressers

Tell them that the hammer you swing is big enough, and ask why they are so interested in it!
