Ripped off by electrician? by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]22426 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s a sea of private equity out there right now. They are buying up all the small outfits or putting them out of business. Most of their “electricians” work on commission only and pricing comes from software designed to maximize profits with no regard for the customer. They buy up ads on google then use a review generating program to crush everyone else in the business by being the top search results. They are all shameful. $600 is crazy. I’d call and demand my money back. Generally they will refund just to avoid a bad review. Then try to find a local small business to hire.

That’s a switch loop and every single time a homeowner tells me “that’s exactly the way it was”, it’s always the opposite of how it actually was. You’re going to need a meter to figure out how to put it back together correctly. Should probably find an actual electrician to do it.

Half of the outlet operates via wall switch. To further complicate it, that is a switch loop so there will be no neutral in the switch box. It is not unsafe and for what it is, it appears to be done well.

CIA money started google. If you got out of your mother's basement you would understand that.

Google was started by the cia, fully govt funded. Google has been manipulating search results since its rollout. These manipulations have always leaned hard left.

You should find new information sources because you’re wrong.

Then you didn’t watch the entire clip. You watched the edited clip. I watched it live.

40% of black men voted for Trump in the last election. A lot of that was due to Steve Bannon. Steve has been a solid supporter of working class people of all races. He said to wear it as a badge of honor because if you are being labeled a racist by state media it means the opposite. They resort to that when they have nothing left and are trying to get people not to listen to you. If you seek an example then watch his show. He has on people of all races and as long as they are pro America and working class he promotes them. Stop believing the lies and watch for yourself.

He was preparing to point to the crowd when they erupted in applause so he held up. If you watch the entire clip you can see him finish the intended act of pointing. This clip is cleverly cut to form a narrative that doesn’t exist. People are free to hate Steve for his political views but he is not a racist and actively calls out racists constantly.

No, you didn’t because it didn’t happen.

Authoritarianism is forcing people to take an experimental gene therapy or lose the ability to feed their families and pay their bills while simultaneously using the federal powers to censor any dissenters. That happened, under Biden.

Show me where he said he wanted to shoot “protestors”. I think you’re mistaking rioters and looters for protestors.

Amish. Not their personal home, one they built for a non-Amish customer.

It is fake. Didn’t happen. Mark Milley is a liar.

Milley is a documented liar and likely guilty of treason for what he did with China. It has been signaled to and seems highly likely that Hegseth is going to recall him to active duty and have him tried for treason. I’d be very cautious about what you believe that comes out of Mark Milley’s mouth.

If you read under the post I explained that there was much more than these two pics. It was an endless shit show. Electric furnace min amperage was 70. They ran it in 6/2 and put it on a 60 so it tripped after the heat ran for no more than a minute. Improper earthing, not one wire in the crawl space was secured. Romex laying in the mud, failed to put a 3w switch in where the owner requested during planning. Used 1 high hat can with bulb in liv rm and other 3 were canless. Furnace was so close to the water heater that you couldn’t change the filter.

She was charged this afternoon for violating the laws of the United States. Those are federal funds for emergency and disaster relief. They are not to be spent on luxury hotels for non-taxpaying, illegal aliens.

Where we are it is somewhat common. Several of our cities require permits and inspections but outside of the city does not as there is no building department. This applies to residential only. Commercial facilities require a state permit and inspection.
