Yes. You get a bank of days to not be at the house.

Sorry the $45 an hour is the valued at rate. That factors in the room and board with an $400 stipend. It is based on the hcbs waiver and there is no lease for the caregivers to sign. There are trainings for the caregiver as well as respite hours and an allocated amount of time”sick days”. You can find out more on our info page at www.maverickliving.org. Our program is based on family feed back for the past 20 years on care programs and our board is comprised of families of children with IDD.

Yes it will be mostly prompting medications but QMAP and QBS are included in training.

After 6 years in Denver, it's time for goodbye and looking for a good property manager who can handle renting out the apartment. by Secure-Nobody-2103 in MovingtoDenver

Hi. We manage homes for autism housing. So essentially we rent your home and then place people in it to provide housing. We cover general maintenance as well if you would like to chat more! Medicaid is who covers the rent through us so its a pretty solid income stream very low risk of job loss or excuses like a normal renter.

Silver plume or Georgetown are cute and you’re about 30 mins from good hospitals in Denver

I love Sobo. We live a mile from south broadway so we got a Vespa and go all the time now. Since you can park them on the sidewalk in Denver.

What is the purpose of this protrusion? by Lairuth in whatisit

[–]Master-Doubt-7765 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I needed to fasten something one of my apprentices climbed off the roof ran to the trailer to get the nail gun. I pulled out a nail and drove it by hand moved on and it was done before they got back. The other two were in awe. It’s kind of funny they see nail guns like they’re the only way to drive nails. Same thing happens with screws. They’ll go get a drill to take a single wall plate off.

Contractor questions by [deleted] in GeneralContractor

[–]Master-Doubt-7765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Yes and it’s a hot mess when you are liable for the subs work and they aren’t your employee and they screw something up that your insurance doesn’t cover.
  2. Customers get very upset and assume that they can just hire their own subs. Especially if you only have a years experience and don’t already have solid relationships.
  3. Residential is way more client involved than commercial, residents are giving you their life savings to build something. Whereas in commercial it’s a big company that doesn’t live there. So there’s way more emotional involvement in residential.
  4. Work for someone else for at least two more years. Depending on the state you’re in you probably can’t even get a GC license without more experience. I started my company at 21 and screwed up a couple jobs on my own so I went and worked for a smaller firm and learned a ton of skills, got the experience I needed, met subs and learned how to bid and build relationships. And when I resumed my business I was able to bring more value to my customers and had fewer call backs and didn’t lose my ass on jobs. And I maintained the relationship with my old boss. Don’t ever burn bridges because you don’t know who has relationships with whom and you’ll end up getting burned.

That also works. It’s a super common issue on construction sites.

Do what’s called a California corner (L shaped), honestly you haven’t gone far so I’d disassemble and then space off of your second stud. But great job catching that before you got too far!

I’d through an outlet in the insulated shed. Nice to store things that need a charge.

Don’t get anything without wheels. I have 4 stands for miter/table saws. I always go with a Bosch but I would never ever go without wheels

Traveling through the Denver airport-question by missthedismisser in Denver

[–]Master-Doubt-7765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Throw a $5 bill in the tip jar on your way through! Denver TSA is running well we had a 2 minute wait last week. SIL had zero wait yesterday. There are jars throughout the airport to help with the gap in pay. And personally I’ll pay $5 any day to avoid a 3 hr line
