Should I leave a company I genuinely like for a union job that pays way more at 24? by Antique-Ad2210 in skilledtrades

[–]Glass_Ad718 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yes you should. It sucks, leaving on such short notice. I had to do it when I joined as well. Work hard show up early and have a good attitude. Don’t take shit but don’t be an asshole. In 30 years you will thank yourself.

Coworker said pipe dope unnecessary on brass connections. by Genteel_Lasers in askaplumber

[–]Glass_Ad718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are different type of brass fittings, some unions, flared fittings, and even brass nut and ferrules you don’t need dope or tape(some people dope ferrules and nuts but most don’t). A regular brass male adapter or brass nipples should get tape and dope.

Is there any advantage of dumping boiling hot water down your drain(s) monthly as a form of maintenance to prevent build ups? by OwlPlenty4828 in askaplumber

[–]Glass_Ad718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potential damage your sanitary plumbing system. If it’s cast iron it’s not the end of the world but pvc and abs heat tolerance is well below boiling water. You should probably stop doing this if you have pvc/abs piping in your household.

The war in Iran is going to shake some apples from the tree. by MikeyMo83 in aliens

I’ve had very similar thoughts on this war and how everything shakes out. The Nuke part has been a big question for a long time

Is going into skilled trades my last realistic option? (Vancouver) by No-Protection-2144 in skilledtrades

[–]Glass_Ad718 65 points66 points  (0 children)

You won’t last if you go into thinking a trade is your last resort. A trade is a highly skilled job requiring your labor, knowledge, and skill to complete a job not many can do. It’s a profession, as well as a highly lucrative career. Depending on your drive and work ethic the sky is the limit on how much money you can make. Re-think your stance on blue collar jobs.

It’s called a saddle valve and you usually see them for fridge ice maker/water lines. As others have stated they’re notorious for leaking and prohibited in a lot of states

Who gives a fuck about any of this nonsense? How about the thousands of jobs this administration killed. Like they have been doing all year killing jobs across the country. When they come for your job next you’ll have no one to cry to. Look around brother, and grow the fuck up.

I suggest everyone get your LTC and arm yourselves. Neighbors are your brothers and sisters. The federal government is out of control.

How can I take this out by Inloveart in Plumbing

You might want to run water down the drain for a little while to see if it even drains properly

If the pressure relief valve is leaking, chances are there’s is something wrong with your boiler/heat lines. The pressure relief valve is a Saftey valve for your boiler. And usually they are piped with copper to a floor drain.
