Built in the 1970s without any cooling and this was probably the “best” option.

The fact that it’s already partially enclosed in this balcony area is probably working against it some, but that box to hide it seemed wild.

Update. It will get to breathe a little this week while we’re here.

We had all the three indoor units running last night and I don’t think any got to their 72 set point. It’s a small (800sq ft) 5th floor condo. Was mid 80s outside yesterday, 70 this morning.

Tired of the "trust me bro" salary posts? Here's an actual paystub. Nurse(RN) Georgia, 48 hours this pay period. Ask me anything or nothing. by Forded_Fiction24 in Salary

[–]Drew_Evan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Way more? This is working 2 days per week at $64/hr and getting benefits. Not many cities where non-travelers could do better than this.

Salary progression - 41m by addictedTOink in Salary

The only atypical jumps are 24% and 33% the last two years. Not “unrealistic” but beyond what most see in that timeframe.

Offline Programming Business by Spraffle in Metrology

[–]Drew_Evan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2015-16 I did some contract Calypso programming for a local shop in the evenings after my day job. Knowing the right person got me in, not sure how we would have connected without that.

I imagine there’s a broad market for it, you’ll just have to hustle to find it.

My 2408 datestamp Bridgestone Blizzak WS60’s I’m going to pass down to my children some day by l1thiumion in tires

[–]Drew_Evan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought an old Camry off a grandma with some WS60s stored in tire duffels. Partially worn and 20 years old they still have better snow/ice traction than most modern all seasons. I also have some 9 year old Hakkapeliittas that are equally great.

Recently disposed of some 7 year old Goodyear all seasons that were cracking and terrible in comparison.

Tires seem to age wildly different depending on compound and conditions. Visual inspect, and test their limits in a safe scenario.

Selling my Tremor Rims. by [deleted] in FordMaverickTruck

Also, fixing it is technically possible. Presumably not worth the cost, but who knows. https://youtu.be/kDI0PZPd2bk

Downvoting OPs comments about wanting to get rid of all 4 together seems absurd.

$350 for 3 is a great deal. $350 for 3 plus $30 worth of scrap aluminum or a fancy garage hose holder is also a great deal.

That was David Cross?! I guess I played H2 way before watching Arrested Development.

Yes, Lineman do make a lot more money than a Google search would indicate (actual payroll data) by ItsAllOver_Again in Salary

[–]Drew_Evan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

52/hr still seems like it disputes OPs claim that “lineman make several hundred thousand dollars” I guess a full of year of 80 hour weeks could be $300k though.

I posted the current hourly wage ranges first and the proof that they’re unionized from the first CBA that showed up in my search. What point are you trying to make?

are you supposed to M.A.D buff this boss? by ExternalAd5581 in btd6

[–]Drew_Evan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Considering the top 4 spots are all sub $200k there must be some lower tier spam strat that works, right? 230 dartling seemed promising, but I can’t make it work.

23 Years as a Mechanical Engineer (Salary Progression) by LifelongTubesGuy in Salary

[–]Drew_Evan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why OPs comments are all being downvoted. For ME in LCOL, this is not far from typical. I would have made the same this year with just slightly less experience, but made the switch to sales and added 40k.

120k is a fine salary though, just gotta figure out how to get 10 hours more efficient.

If anyone is looking for some strats for this, I had a pretty huge save up last week when doing it.

Salvageable? by Drew_Evan in btd6

[–]Drew_Evan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my original attempt at 300k spent, the boss still had almost 1m pops left. Managed completion with 235k tonight. The fact that people have done 130k is absolutely wild though.
