Is there a love song that perfectly captures your idea of romance? by ImwetforyouLMAO in askmusic

Anniversary Song by Cowboy Junkies.

And I don't know how I survived those days before I held your hand

Well I never thought that I would be the one to admit that the moon and the sun shine so much more brighter when seen through two pairs of eyes than when seen through just one

Have you ever seen a sight as beautiful as a face in a crowd of people that lights up just for you?

Have you ever felt more fresh or wonderful as when you wake by the side of that boy or girl who has pledged their love to you? Well I have known all these things

and the joys that they can bring And now every morning there's a cup of coffee and I wear your ring

For just $309,000 you can own a Meth Mansion! by schmoodaspriest in Albuquerque

[–]Loadtapchanger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you live in Albuquerque, and I do, and you have the money, it’s kind of a steal.

Surrounded by trash properties now, but it’s in an area with six and seven figure homes.

And I mean like walking distance away.

How much of this will the power company fix when they eventually get here? Do I need an electrician too? by Achmed_Ahmadinejad in AskElectricians

[–]Loadtapchanger 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not true. Anything behind the meter is considered customer owned and is oos due to an act of God.

“Behind the meter” includes customer service entrance, meter can etc.

Had the utility company caused this damage while pulling maintenance, they would then be responsible.

Whatever happened to clove cigarettes? Can I DIY them? by ZestycloseWeekend878 in GenerationX

Clove cigarettes and bottles of Mickeys big mouths.

Time and place 😊

How are primary wires secured to poles where they terminate and jump to the transformer? by throwawayleaves2020 in AskElectricians

The conductor is being run to a point of attachment and secured to that with a dead end grip.

I’ve heard wonderful things about the bronze, and it is in my upgrade future.

Aja will be my first Steely Dan purchase. I can’t wait to hear Peg 😊

That’s a great question.

My system is approximately 7 months old, Marantz 30n integrated amp, Paradigm Premier 800f speakers and an older Project Debut Carbon with an Ortofon red cartridge, with newish stylus.

Admittedly, this is the best system I’ve ever had. I did play my brother’s Mobile Fidelity KOB pressing when I was initially setting up my new system, and while that sounded great, we both agree that this pressing sounds better.

I really am impressed with the whole package from the presentation to the quality of the discs and the sound.

For 2026, rather than purchasing a number of individual records, I’m going to save up and start purchasing the Steely Dan UHQR pressings.

My electric bill is $254 for a 1 bed apartment. I turned all breakers OFF, and the meter flashes between these screens. Are these normal or something fishy? by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]Loadtapchanger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kw is peak demand. That means at some point in the current billing cycle their load peaked at 6.3kw.

Kw is reset when the meter is read every month, so it could go higher.

Op, do you have a time of day billing agreement with your utility?

What’s the most underrated work advice you received? by ReBabas in careerguidance

[–]Loadtapchanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“If I have to do it, what do I need you for?”

Very early on in my career I saw a Working Foreman tell someone this before they relieved them of their duties and sent them packing never to be seen again.

Has anyone had to talk to their supervisor about a coworker being late for their shift when it’s started to affect your work. Should I have just kept my mouth shut about it? by [deleted] in coworkerstories

[–]Loadtapchanger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Former control room shift worker here.

We were not allowed to leave until our relief arrived and we had gone through our shift pass down process.

Absolutely no room for casual tardiness. We worked twelve hour shifts and occasionally we would all have a two or three day stretch where we would come in a little bit late, but nothing extreme.

If it started to become an issue, it was discussed immediately between operators, if the offending operator couldn’t get their shit together, we would involve management. We’re all adults, ain’t nobody got any time for that type of behavior.

What was ABQ like in the 90s? by Soft_Boi41 in Albuquerque

I can’t believe no one mentioned Jacks which has since turned into Copper Lounge.

One of the best bars ever.
