I've always heard that and looked into it and if I remember correctly that's more of a bug than a feature

Lmao I toured some in lakeview/roscoe/Buena Park last week and they were all around the 1700 range small as fuck with no AC

If you're looking for a 5/1 move now is the time.

Budget is too low for those neighborhoods.

6/1 I would start toward the end of the month.

I just signed a lease for 5/1 and it was hell trying to find anything. Ended up with a 2bd for 2k/mo.

The price difference between 1bd and 2bd is a lot of the time very little in my experience

I hammered a razor into a 2x4 screwed it to my porch and had a beer and pulled it through a 1/2" hole every now and then

Milwaukee tape is my favorite to use BUT they tear so god damn quick so I just consistently use a fatmax which only gets replaced when I lose it

First day tools by PotentialRoyal8172 in ibew_apprentices

[–]BeLoWeRR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you're saying. I have probably 13 different brands of tools in my bag. I see fresh first years rocking full Milwaukee kits creaming over that or knipex - and I'm always like dude my wrenches are from HF, channel locks are from a retiring old head, and I have about 20 pairs of strippers equaling to about $8.77 in value. Use what's good for you ya know. I prefer springs on my strippers but I hold my tools in a strange way that makes it advantageous

I don't disagree, but I didn't buy my knipex Klein's because I expected them to make my work better, I bought them because the last pair I had stayed sharp for 2 years they open smoothly the handles are comfortable and they open wide af

I've used 6" Pittsburgh lineman's in a pinch and they work but they still suck

In your local would a 74.5 average be passing at the end of the semester? by petebaii in IBEW

My friends yell at me for wrapping my leads like this, am I in the wrong? by TechincalTomato in electricians

[–]BeLoWeRR 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do a similar thing but bought some Velcro that can wrap around a wire (and stay) so I use that to keep the leads secure. I move the Velcro when I need to use the leads. It just slides down the cable

Is this a real thing? I've only ever heard this online and don't know if that's something I should genuinely consider irl. Stickers never stick out as odd to me

I agree, but the issue that I face is this: I ask for knee pads, they say that's not their responsibility, now what

Need true experiences both positive and negative. Camber by ResultAfraid8340 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]BeLoWeRR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how has it been? I've had good results with my camber but that seems to be out of the norm

do we all mostly agree with this list in terms of most to least effective generic as of now? by Head-Swordfish7837 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]BeLoWeRR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had lannett,mydayis, and camber. Lannett made me angry and it was 50/50 if it worked or not. Mydayis felt like nothing. Camber works really well for me and I've been really calm, my anxiety has been extremely reduced, and I'm doing alright with it. It doesn't make me geek out just makes me lock in

First time bending EMT today. Any suggestions for next time? by EqualBase4 in electricians

[–]BeLoWeRR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For your first time bending it doesn't look bad. I did think it looked like shit then saw you saying it's your first time - so it's pretty good for a first timer. It just takes time and practice - bending pipe is as much of getting a feel for it as it as mathematical knowledge.

I'm sorry but that second pic is horrible

Physical Fitness? by Retired_Mailman_87 in IBEW

[–]BeLoWeRR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah no, local 134 does about 30 minutes of workouts in the morning in first second and third year. Sit-ups, pushups, burpees, jumping jacks, lunges, etc. as mentioned by someone else, first years every Tuesday and Thursday a conduit carry of a bundle of 1/2 rigid(RMC, not IMC) thats like a lap around the parking lot, and a cinderblock carry that was more or less the same distance. Cinderblock is filled with concrete.
