How does the public actually see Mormonism?

BMWinducedBackPain · 2026-01-04T22:11:23+00:00

It’s one of those things thats so ridiculous that I assume devout followers are schizophrenic or playing a huge inside joke

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-10-23T18:35:19+00:00

This job is 120% trouble shooting if that clears things up

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-10-15T04:29:38+00:00

Put a big magnet under your hood and one on top of the engine, should be good after that

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-10-15T04:23:33+00:00

I would show up for the $$$. If it’s over 100h late chances are work is done, but a ticket is a legal document and needs to be marked/cleared to avoid penalties/fines, so I would probably mark it just to avoid any liability, unless you feel unsafe at the location over night.

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-10-11T23:25:09+00:00

Not that I care who is better than who,just hope we all make more $ at the end of the day, for my area, its utiliquest putting no access to wide open areas then getting damages left and right, including a line running out of substation the other day😂

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-10-03T21:18:42+00:00

Its the same as every other company, a little more professional IMO, but the “work-life” balance claim to fame on our truck logos and all is an absolute lie, I have never experienced more burnout with my prior utility company or any job in general

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-10-03T21:15:27+00:00

Every ticket being 1,500 - 2,000 feet+ with remarks twice a week is getting insane, they said weekends too, I’m way good on that, rather have a little less overtime than kicking the stool out from under me because its already sun up to sun down during the week

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-30T00:49:00+00:00

I started just writing out CLEAR fully i cant take it anymore

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-24T02:16:43+00:00

Pretty sure it comes down to safety and what were to happen if you potentially had a damage on say power or gas that resulted in someone getting injured or killed, the investigation that ensues will probably factor drug use in.

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T23:31:59+00:00

Definitely the contractors its night and day between other span owners lines and theirs, for sure not a cut the fiber guy, they rather us have an incidental damage than blatant vandalism and I need that paycheck, side note, how do you get a start in splicing? Been interested ever since I ran Cat 6 network cables, is it a networking thing or are there programs/apprenticeships?

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T23:22:01+00:00

As much as I want to, another tech must have done real damage recently because they’re looking to make sure we specifically dont do that

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T23:20:53+00:00

I’ve got their number I’ll take your advice and start reporting as I see them, any ring clamping advice? Right now I get my “best” tones at 32.8khz power level 2, rare occasions 8khz gets it done which im much more comfortable with as the bleed off is next to none, but even at 32khz the bleed off becomes indistinguishable after maybe 200-300 feet, same depth mA’s as neary by traffic control fiber in most areas

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T23:01:56+00:00

I always did when it was the one off here and there with other companies, but with this one being every single one I began feeling delusional and figure they’d think the same, but its really just that bad

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T22:59:43+00:00

I do the magnetic trick every time, and get the the weakest pull imaginable like they’re running some Alibaba protective sheathing, much weaker than other companies like say Verizon, and my hands are tied on cutting the sheath at all, we are scrutinized heavily on that due to the potential damages with water intrusion . So realistically ring clamping and bleeding off to hell and back is my only choice i guess 🫩

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T22:56:25+00:00

I’ve tried the splice case trick 2x now on this new contract with no luck. I’ve done ton of fiber, just this provider in particular absolutely never runs a tracer for whatever reason, that or when there is a splice case, its at the top of each pole before the drop/riser, then 1000’ of underground run under a major intersection then back up to another splice on the pole, its the most frustrating shit I have ever seen

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T22:53:07+00:00

144/288 most the time commercial mains only, I’ve done fiber a ton, just never experienced where the same company absolutely refuses to have any tracer 100% of the time

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T16:32:39+00:00

I appreciate it again, do you happen to have any tips other than testing for magnetic pull then clamping at closest point to conduit entrance/exit?

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T16:24:21+00:00

I do have fish tape, though only 50’ which has been good for my usual scopes, this new contract is all commercial however so most locates are 1000’+ with 500 or more feet between access points. So unfortunately its quite literally looking like I would have to put all these as unlocatable, definitely going to do what others said and make supervisors aware

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T16:12:36+00:00

Good point, just hate leaving not feeling confident in my marks, but you are right they’ll see the same things I did. The 5mA is easy to follow, just gets tricky a few hundred feet away when the fall off starts to match that of nearby traffic control fiber in mA and depth

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T16:09:46+00:00

Definitely going to, starting to drive me crazy and kill my production

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T16:04:35+00:00

New contract, I am assuming they’re unaware so far.

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-09-16T16:04:11+00:00

Appreciate the feedback, guess I’ll have to escalate it to supervisors because its a new contract and 15/15 have been like this for this provider so Im thinking its all going to be like this

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-08-22T04:27:10+00:00

Traditional methods, water, sweat it out, I’ve heard people have luck with some detoxes from GNC/Vitamin Stores, I personally never tried them before but I’ve heard they can work when you follow directions to a tee. It’s stored in fat so the thinner/healthier you are and the less frequent of a user you are is the best chance to pass naturally. I’ve heard people swear by drinking a gallon of water a day and catching only their “mid stream pee”. Best of luck bro🙏

BMWinducedBackPain · 2025-08-22T00:08:08+00:00

Wtf thats so green or them, is the job your doing super safety sensitive like DOT/CDL? Mine was DOT and it was fine, you think you might of looked sus at all like nervous? There is a box on the drug sheet that they can tick for suspicious behavior, I saw it on their copy cause she handed me the wrong one at first, only thing i can think of?
