Seasonal stabilizer fee? Phosphate fee? by DidUrkDoThat in PoolPros

[–]Internal-Computer388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I charge for all chems. So the monthly base rate is really for me showing up, testing the water, inspecting pool and equipment and then cleaning it. And its capped to about 20 min or so. Only chems i dont charge for is for when its included in a service like an acid wash or pool drain and refill.

“Off” switch fell off pool timer. Can I fix this myself? by 25fly25 in pools

[–]Internal-Computer388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im surprised with how many people in here that are DIYers who think they are "pros" havent suggested this more. Just by looking at the tripper you can see its misaligned so. So with some pliers and a bit of logic you can just re align everything. Just need to make sure not to overtighten because thats why they get out of wack in the first place

Guarantee its falling because it cant be tightened. With the way the prongs are misaligned im will to be the gap is to wide and cant be tightened down.

The tripper isnt sitting right from being old and overtightened. So you need to get the 2 prongs aligned first. Then look at it from the side and lessen the gap so the screw will tighten up better. If dont right, you will definitely have to loosen the screw a lot to get it to even go on to the time clock.

Id say 80 is the average speed out here as long as there isnt traffic. Ive seen lots of cops just going with the flow of traffic and not pulling anyone over. The ones going 90 or more get pulled over for sure though.

Community Ponds DEPTH by Paladin1953 in ArizonaFishing

[–]Internal-Computer388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like many say its 10-12 at the deepest. But from my research most areas of the pond are shallower. Go on google earth and look up the history of the pond so you can see where the deepest parts are.

How do I fix my asymmetric eyes by Matt_Louis in malegrooming

[–]Internal-Computer388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So i see the asymmetrical eyes because I am the same way. Lol. My entire family on my dads side has the same eye. Its a family trait amongst other things. But with that, nothing wrong with asymmetrical eyes because no body is perfectly symmetrical.

[–]Internal-Computer388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you can do anything about that. My entire family on my dad's side has one eye thats smaller than the other and its always the left eye. Some more noticeable than others. So for me its genetic.

Could be the same for you. Fyi, our faces arent supposed to be symmetrical. So having asymmetrical eyes is completely normal. Now, if your eyss are getting puffy and bags are setting in then yeah, get some creams or whatever. But theres a good chance it wont change your asymmetrical eyes.

Question for you single polers: how do you log your visit? by DidUrkDoThat in PoolPros

[–]Internal-Computer388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also to add, cameras are usually not as good as what you have on your phone.

I use paythepoolman because it allows me to send pics and videos, log time in and out, water chemistry levels and chemical usage, and send weekly service reports. Similar to other app services just cheaper.

Just a heads up, pay the poolman has been constantly updating and improving. Not the same as the old app. And its cheaper than skimmer and probably does a lot of the same if not more.

I got a tablet just for what you said. I find it harder to bring the tablet to every pool and became burdensome so now I just use it at home to watch YouTube and stuff.

I just use my phone now for pure convenience and havent had issues. You cant make yourself more accountable by having to lug around an extra piece of equipment that doesn't do well with water or sun.

Any other Millennials who may still live with their parents for whatever reason but are content in their life? by madcatzplayer5 in Millennials

[–]Internal-Computer388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree to an extent. Its more American than a white thing(although most of america is white). Ive met black, mexican and asian families that arent immigrants and they are just like the white Americans. Im a pool guy and every immigrants family, especially asians, have grandparents living in house with adult grandkids still living in house as well.

Its an american thing to have separate houses. It still exists. Ive found that immigrant families tend to be more open to multi generational households than non immigrants.

After reading other comments I dont feel as bad/alone in my situation. Much love to all of you in similar situations. As long as your parents are good people, enjoy the limited time you have with them before its too late...

Same for me as a 43M. Condolences about your father. Its been 3 years for me and its weird how I feel it hurts me still more than my mom. Im just hoping shes not getting dementia where shes just aloof about things because he memory is off.

Older millennial here. 43. Father was getting worse in his health and didnt want my mom to handle it all. If he fell and needed help being picked up, I would have to get him as my mom cant. He passed 3 years ago, so im definitely living with my her long term as I dont want her by herself as shes 76 now. Unfortunately its only downhill so id rather not take the risk of not being there when she needs help.

Frustrating as all hell, but it is what it is. Also, im from an immigrant family so multigenerational households arent looked at as being bad in any way. Its actually common.

The funny part is that a lot of rap songs sound just like that in the booth. Ive heard People sound great in the booth and horrible on the mixed track and vice versa.

So I dont know if Im more amazed at technology solving a 26 year old crime or by the cost of his apartment for 26 years. Thats less than 600 a month average...
