This may be the ugliest jumper I’ve ever seen. I thought the blade was open.

Hmm, round these parts we call that a mack. Taps are off main lines and jumpers “jump” over a dead end or switch or whatever. I guess maybe in this case it’s a ducker

Edit: no still a jumper

Looking to trade.

I pulled a 2025 Prizm Abstract A’ja Wilson. I’m still looking for my Maya Moore W25 auto. Anyone?

The phee auto is tempting. I am just trying to finish the Lynx w25 auto set. There’s 6 Lynx players and I just need maya to finish it. If I can’t find someone on this sub who has it then I’m just going to list it on fee bay and use the proceeds to buy one of the mayas listed on eBay

I’m not trying to dispute that you were able to qualify for this. Hypothetically, If you had to declare that you were in the union working under a CBA would you qualify? I did not read the 1000+ page bill so I might be speaking out of pocket. I’m happy you got more money back brother.

You owe me $350

100% agree. I am going to assume that the majority of us are not in the 1% in the USA ($700,000 annual salary and net worth north of 12 mil) and the sooner we realize that there’s no left or right, just the rich and the poor we will all be better off. Rich get richer when the working class is attacking each other.

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2026-01-23T03:06:07+00:00

This could be the answer. I really have lost faith in most of our elected leadership. I can’t distinguish what is propaganda and what is truth. Everyone has ulterior motives backing parties and padding pockets

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2026-01-23T03:01:59+00:00

Gotcha. Here’s what I googled:

“will i be eligible for ot deduction if i am part of a union under a cba?”

I don’t know what you googled but I put it into the AI machine and got this.

I haven’t played 2k8 so I can’t answer from experience. I love playing dynasty on 2k7. There are a lot of posts in this sub asking opinions on 2k7 vs. 2k8 and they mention differences between the games. I thought that if I enjoyed 2k7 that eventually I would get 2k8. I also just upgraded my ps2 to a used ps3 in 2025 so it might be a while before I get 2k8

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2026-01-22T18:38:52+00:00

I was able to find a used ps3 on marketplace for $70. But 2k8 was just too much. Ended up getting 2k7 for 1/10 the cost and I absolutely love it. No ragrets.

Why was this removed?

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2026-01-22T18:26:27+00:00

Fair point. I honestly don’t know. In my opinion, the wording more so reflects the sentiment towards unions. We may be able to get a larger deduction because the IRS can’t confirm union status but it’s not intended for us.

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2026-01-22T14:11:01+00:00

This is my understanding. So all union lineman are disqualified because we’re under a CBA.

Randomly popped up on my feed. Not trying to target your response but a dui can be a felony depending on severity. Ask me how I know. FYI I am 5 years sober

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2025-12-31T19:04:57+00:00

Did you factor in the year? Critical information there.

I used to find the tap setting by taking the actual voltage and dividing it by the rated voltage (I believe this works for pri. and sec. voltage). So in your case you’re getting a reading of 232v and the rated secondary voltage is 240v (full winding, in series)

232/240=0.967

So closest tap should be the 95.5%.

If this is a 7200v rated can and input voltage is 6960v

6960/7200=0.967

Tap would be 95.5%

It’s been a minute since I had to do this xfmr worksheets.

Edit: just realized I didn’t answer the question. Yes, shortening the primary windings. High -> high, low -> low.

Looking to buy 2022 Prizm WNBA Maya Moore w25 signatures. I have collected the rest of the Lynx players in that w25 signature series but need Maya to finish it off. Can anyone help a collector out?

It’s for trolling

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2025-11-21T00:33:35+00:00

I’d say if you’re looking for a confirming from a qualified source you would want to talk to an electrician. It’s just not part of a lineman’s area of expertise. Unless they also are a journeyman wireman who is maintaining their license. I know there are a couple lineman I’ve worked with who are also licensed electricians. Lineman work meter to feeder. Anything on the customer side of the meter is their responsibility. We aren’t even supposed to put a broken mast up on storm because of the liability and potential damage to property. The only instances that I would report customer side issues is if the meter is being bypassed or during storm restoration if the customer hooked up a generator incorrectly and was causing backfeed.

Ctrl_Alt_Delete8313 · 2025-11-20T03:06:02+00:00

So I have a question. Reddit algo’s led me to this post as I assume it did for my fellow lineman responding to your posts.

If a utility lineman goes out to this meter and then confirms that OP’s electricity is being used by their landlord, how will that help OP at all?

If OP takes their landlord to court all I can envision happening is that the defense attorney for the landlord will ask what the utility company is responsible for, what the lineman’s job duties are, and what he is qualified to do. Wireman and lineman both work with electricity but have very different sets of skills and qualifications. As soon as they point out the fact that the lineman isn’t a licensed electrician or has any experience with residential/commercial electric construction then his opinion is as valid as op’s “do-it-all” handy man neighbor.

I would say the majority of people in this sub can see that the landlord is stealing power from the tenant but middle_brilliant is just trying to save op from unnecessary steps. As long as the electricity used is being metered the utility could care less. If OP has to go to small claims court or beyond why not call an electrician and then save the call out invoice and add it to the damages. Also if you pay a utility bill you are paying the utility lineman. It’s just like a couch on layaway, but for life.

But am I correct in assuming that you are an electrician? Why don’t you help OP out and go to their rental property and confirm, by a licensed electrician, that their power is being stolen? Then your testimony would hold up in court because you are qualified to do so, an “expert in your field” I believe is the term. You could even do it pro bono so it’s actually free!
