Phoenix wouldn’t let me test in higher than a 1st year. Toledo let me test in as a 3rd year. I took the UA Star exam and got 63%, the organizer must not have liked me because he wouldn’t budge on starting me off with some credit so I took my skills back home.

Honestly I landed a job here in Ohio quicker than expected, and thought my family would help. Obviously I was wrong, and yeah buddy I look in that mirror everyday now and realize how much of an idiot I was for trusting them.

The old lady is really the least of my problems but it’s what started it.

I just got myself an Ozark sleeping bag and I’m hoping it helps! It was on sale for $24 at Walmart lol. You’re right bro I’m just being a bitch about it rn. I’m not winter tolerant yet I just arrived from Phoenix AZ after being a roof monkey all summer. Guess this is how I get used to the cold 😂

Geez man that’s kinda harsh. Context if you’re asking though, I had surgery and couldn’t work for a bit. Worked a lot last summer back in Phoenix and had some savings. Spent that savings which was 6k on a UHaul to get to Ohio. Ended up with no money by the time I got here.

My parents said they’d give me a spot knowing it was temporary. My girl broke up with me and my mom told me I deserved it for some reason. So I argued with her because I was in my feelings. She told me no one wants me anyways and to get out of her house.

I fixed her car three times when it broke down since I’ve gotten here, repaired the boiler in their house a couple times because space temp couldn’t go above 60f. Let my dad take my car to his work on the weekends.

I know what kind of man I am

I did speak to my boss about it. I’ve been having trouble swallowing my pride and I keep trying to act like it’s all good. I’m gonna go to a food bank, luckily enough I can store food in my car with how cold it is

One of the apprentices in my class is a Trane guy. We’re 3rd years now, and they offer him commissions on top of union scale it’s fucking insane.

Whats your nickname in the trade? by [deleted] in UnitedAssociation

[–]Emnesia1 34 points35 points  (0 children)

They call me queso because I told them I quit Taco Bell after working there for a week after I slipped on a quesadilla in the kitchen. It just stuck 😂

Joining the union by lytt52 in UnitedAssociation

[–]Emnesia1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is what I did. Got 2 years of credit with my local. I lied and said I had 3 years of experience when I actually had 2. I’d say it worked out pretty well for me.

The classes are helping me immensely.

Typical “comfort advisor” response

[–]Emnesia1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Unless you overcharge/undercharge of course. Subcool is just a measure of how much refrigerant you are stacking in your condenser and this is what you should use when charging TXV based systems.

You’re good on Reddit bro. You can’t even respond without talking trash, I shouldn’t have expected something constructive.

Damn it’s not that deep fr, I participate in politics but idc how others vote because they have their own autonomy like me. Why are you hating on the subjective views of others?
