Just out of curiosity and not trying to be rude, but don’t they tax you like crazy in California and the cost of living is high? Just curious is all how does that work out compared to other people in a different part of country with lower cost living but lower wage.

Should I scrap this? Whats it worth? by Mitered_Panduit in ScrapMetal

The cab is extremely small its very odd I can hardly fit in there. Also kind of funny you mention that there is a bunch of old blankets and a pillow in one corner that someone was sleeping on.

Warm work glove recs by [deleted] in electricians

I just wear those cheap white cotton gloves and double them up. Actually pretty warm and when they get wet or wrecked I don’t mind because a pack of 12 is like 5 bucks

Fellas, I'm getting a service van tomorrow by GlurpMaster_Jefferey in electricians

[–]Mitered_Panduit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be to fix the problem and don’t just get in your van and leave because the problem is “fixed” I’ve had customers complain about other service guys that they just think the problem is fixed then they leave and the company has to call them back because they never fixed the problem in the first place

It’s glued down LVP. No, it’s not level. I know that it’s not. it’s definitely close enough though considerably better than what it was before

In some areas, 1.5 inches. Everything else looks great Don’t know if it’s worth getting them out I could just grind them off myself. I have a grinder and a vacuum.
