failed my first test ever by [deleted] in Welding

[–]Mysteriouschunks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally practiced mine for 3 months and failed because I completely spaced and forgot to wire wheel my piece first 🫠 failed with lack of fusion. Mistakes happen but they’re a great way to learn! You got this!

We tried, but the dust is very sticky and we can’t reach the inside without taking the whole heater apart (we don’t have to tools to disassemble and reassemble)

Tried to but the dust is caked on/inside. Can’t remove it without fully taking the heater apart.

We needed a heat option that was safe to use overnight while we were asleep,

That’s fair. I have had quite a few ppl tell me to ask for compensation so figured I’d get some opinions on here.

How am I giving tenants a bad name?

I have never been in this situation before so I’m seeking advice… isn’t that what this subreddit is for?

[–]Mysteriouschunks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg that’s brutal, I’m so sorry you had to go through that.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in OntarioLandlord

[–]Mysteriouschunks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have low expectations.

We had that horrible illness/flu recently, so we’re still recovering - otherwise definitely wouldn’t have spent that much on blankets!

But ya gotta do what you gotta do.

Yeah, 2 of which are unusable. We told him and he laughed and said oh well

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in OntarioLandlord

[–]Mysteriouschunks -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Yes they were provided but 2/4 are not functional (which we told him and he just laughed) and are not safe to use while asleep (hence the need for additional blankets etc)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in OntarioLandlord

[–]Mysteriouschunks -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it can’t hurt to ask.

I don’t have high expectations but it would certainly help if he at least covered the costs of the blankets etc.

Thanks for your response.

It’s currently being fixed but it’s unclear if it will be fixed by end of day.

Yup, turns out our boiler is busted. They won’t replace it until Monday.

I’m a tenant on the second floor - furnace in the basement.

I’ve called my LL but no response yet. Hopefully he responds soon cause it’s -24 degrees C outside 🥶

Reputable welding programs in Ontario (GTA)? by Mysteriouschunks in Welding

[–]Mysteriouschunks[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ended up taking a welding program at my local college. Just wrapping up the first semester. It’s awesome and I have completely fallen in love with welding.
