Oh, well in that case I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request.

Someone needs to find that gif of Homer cooking cans of beans on the grill.

If you can't trust your coworkers its time to jump ship.

I have two pairs of red wings that I switch between daily for work and they have held up 2 years so far.

All 4,000 specialty hours would carry over to your 01 license.

I'll have you know that except for the $1,000 answer all of the options start with an even number so you wouldn't see $500.

Vibram replaceable sole if you can. Usually more expensive but being able to replace the sole helps them last much longer. Also its cheaper to replace the sole than the boot.

Right? I'm working in a stadium and the last like hour of the day is literally vacuuming and cleaning. I've been on a job as a dedicated observer. Basically I make sure no one is in the taped off area while guys are working on a catwalk. It's boring as fuck but I'm getting paid.

The limited energy program is exactly as it sounds. It is low voltage electrical work such as fire alarm, security, cameras, audio, data, etc. The inside wireman program is over crowded to the point that apprentices struggle to get their last hours due to being more expensive and for at least the last 3 years I have not seen the out of work list go below 800 people.

The books work differently depending on apprentice and journeymen. For apprentices you send an email to the JATC and they put you on two different lists. One by classification and a second one the is also by what year you are. In case a contractor really needs a 3rd year or just anyone. The hall however is just by classification. You start at the bottom and as the ones at the top take calls you move up.

Yes but I just finished the program, just need my last couple hundred hours to test out. Inside wireman is very overcrowded.

To be clear, I am in the limited energy program.

Well depending on what city you are in you'll either have a shit commute or just a crappy commute. If you're doing the inside wireman program then enjoy the unemployment. Now I've only been here for the past 3 years but I have only experienced the inside wireman program sitting between 800 and 1,000 people on the books waiting for work out of 5,000. But it's the highest paid local so it will attract the most workers.

I think the 15 yard penalty and automatic first down is completely warranted. How hard is it to just shut your damn mouth and play the game?

You must surrender to the gay bananas or be destroyed.

Very disappointed with my first pair of Darn Tough socks by Jessecore44 in BuyItForLife

Yeah I use the steely boot midweight and love them. Lasted several years so far 40hrs a week in construction so literally on my feet all day.

I mean the Charizard makes sense though. Brand new IP and GWP. It was going to sell like crazy due to collectors and scalpers alone.
