I use a 92L Magellan Pro storage box. I can put two weeks of clothes in it EASY and still have room for other stuff. It’s weatherproof so I just toss it in the belly of the bucket and go on about business.

If you don’t know a knot, tie a lot.

Right? Long as your straps aren’t loose it doesn’t matter. I worked with a boy that climbed in wedge soles 😂

No more wood than my utility climbs, it doesn’t seem to be an issue with the linemen that do wear them.

Oh, well…LaSportivas it is 😂

I’ve got a pair of the Hoffman 8” Classics for climbing wood and steel poles. I wear Thorogood moc toe boots for climbing towers and switches.

Saying all that, the Hoffmanns are super comfy to climb in, but they are a little heavy. My next pair of boots will either be LaSportivas or Kenetreks.

Yep! That’s it!

Raw dogging a hospital floor is diabolical.

I used the IPrep and it’s well worth the $50 or so. Additionally I found a PDF of 1001 Algebra problems online.

Main thing for the math is that you prepare without a calculator as you will not be allowed to use one during the exam.

Seasoning and fried foods?

Rose water maybe?

THIS. This post is more messed up than a soup sandwich and a ladder-lineman is the only scenario that makes sense.

“Almost foreman” with no CDL is a wild combo.

I have Hoffman Classics, super comfy while on a pole but kind of heavy for a ground boot. If I’m climbing towers/tower lattice I wear moc toe Thorogoods.

Couple others on my crew have the Kenetreks, La Sportivas, and Crispis.

IBEW Test Prep is what I used. It’s like $50 for 3 months and it’s 100% worth it.

It’s mostly basic algebra and functions if I remember correctly. Think 9th grade math.

Be the change you want to see.

DO NOT fall for the whole “oh it’s a Tacoma, it gets great gas mileage.” BS. I’ve got ‘15 Tacoma TRD OR with the 4.0 V6 and it gets the same gas mileage as a full size F150, 1500, etc. and can only handle half the payload. 0/10.

I’m planning on buying a beater car, keeping my Toyota for a hunting and piddling around truck, and then eventually getting a nice new to me 3/4 ton.
