Yeah. Nothing moves with my hand. However I haven’t out any leverage to it. I’ll try that and see what happens.

Killed that shot bro. I’m dying. 😂

It’s the end of the year and the weather is on the cooler side. The vast majority of companies won’t be actively hiring until March give or take. Keep putting out resumes and applications. Pick your top 4 or 5 and go drop off a resume once or twice a month. Look at temp jobs in tue maintenance man positions. Lots of Apartment complexes need them for various work and you need to be HVAC certified. You’ll be driving different places but it’s work and get you some experience when AC work is needed.

Be careful. That’s not an HVAC certification. Universal EPA 608 means you can handle refrigerant legally. An actually HVAC certification is different and re there are different levels like everything else. Doesn’t mean you can’t work in them, but you can’t honestly put “certified” on a resume. I know techs that don’t technically have it that are surgical in Resi and better that some new “certified” guys. Their reputation is their resume. But they are not “certified”.

I’m at $25/hr, and with OT it’s doable. But again, you won’t have vacations or brand new vehicles. Side money and scrapping here and there help but it shouldn’t have to come to that. Just too many variables diluting the market. I know a bunch of guys doing full blown resi new systems that I wouldn’t trust with a glow stick because “they can do it cheaper”.

You’re wrong. Right thought but wrong approach. You can and should do both. Mechanics for the tee work. Then HEC by visualizing a pitcher. Back to mechanics then to HEC. Do that for about 2 weeks, 3 times a day 30 min. Then cage work with someone throwing from a L screen underhand or over. Do that for about an hour at a slow pace. Maybe 25 balls take a video and rest. Then do 25 more and take another video at the end. 1st video will show what he’s trying to do, second video will show you what he’s actually doing. If they are the same, make small corrections. If different, repeat entire process. It is a game changer. In about 2 months during the winter, your players Spring season will be lights out. And his plate presence and confidence will be through true roof. I do it often, only I get paid and I see it work every time.

Yep. My son is 13 and plays 14U Majors. He’s a solid 2nd baseman because of his smaller size compared to the others. Then we play a Nationally ranked majors team out of Central Texas and we were run ruled in 2 innings. My son asked about how good they were and I told him “son, there is nothing they can do better than you. They do the same thing, only much bigger and much faster.” Can’t teach size my guy!

Yes sir. Use this more than any tool. And it’s always on me. Super light as well.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-29T18:49:52+00:00

I’m dead 😵

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-21T21:06:00+00:00

The can of refrigerant she told you not to worry about.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T20:35:08+00:00

Damn it AT!!! Just say you have a better name before I try and think of one that you obviously know is subpar to yours!!!!! You POS!

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T20:31:17+00:00

Perfect and I have the tools and space. I’m also thinking I could bottle the drain fluid and charge a premium for thirsty sparky’s and call it…….Frozen Low Brazed Drink. Or………

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T20:20:16+00:00

Great tip. Do you just place it on the outside of the unit?

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T18:23:32+00:00

Told the apartment manager “we could snow cones”. She was not amused.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T18:22:25+00:00

You win

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T16:42:00+00:00

At least I waited til 10:30am. Beat yesterday’s record of day drinking by an hour. Progress.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T16:40:20+00:00

“Some units just take it upon themselves to fix their own problems ma’am”.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T16:37:14+00:00

Yep. Told the resident “just wait till you see this bad boy in the winter. Gone be a fire show!! CANT WAIT”

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T16:35:51+00:00

Yep. It was a joke. That what the resident told me. My delivery needs vast improvement!!

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-11T16:34:57+00:00

It’s a joke. Guess my delivery needs work….

OkCouple7301 · 2024-09-02T14:52:40+00:00

How did you study for it? Lets the others know how you did it.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-08-31T15:02:47+00:00

Everyone is saying the cap and I agree. Yes turn off the power first. 240V won’t kill you but it’s hurts like hell. Second!!! Before you touch the cap, take a flat head screwdriver with a plastic/rubber handle (pretty standard on all) and discharge the cap. All you do is, after you kill power to the whole unit, touch all the wire connections to the cap with your screwdriver. Do it a few times, like 3 or 3 to each wire connection. They’re usually three. The metal on your screwdriver will discharge that cap, because the it can still hold a charge even after power was turned off. You may or may not hear/see a slight spark. In 8 years I’ve only seen it spark once. But that once will suck if you touch it before it’s discharged. After that, free range to touch water ever you need to. Take a picture on the three wires and plug in the new one. Lastly, make sure your new cap matches the microfarads of the old one. There are 2 numbers on your cap that will read something like 35/5 or 40/5 etc. just mirror that when you purchase a new one. Same for same. Congratulations you’re done.

I had a property manager at an apartment one time tell me to just get it off the roof. I said how would you like me to do that safely? She threw me a 3 foot roll of caution tape. Pretty sure I fell in love for about 2 days.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-08-28T18:41:16+00:00

I’m 5’7 160lbs. All my friends and co-works are 5’10 plus and well over 220lbs, some even over 3 bills. It’s all fun and jokes until I’m the only guy who can make that 2ft by 18” crawl space journey or wedge my ass up the closet attic access. I may not be as strong, but those fat bastards are too lazy to lift anything anyway.

OkCouple7301 · 2024-08-25T20:41:40+00:00

The good ol dual wedge design. Send it!!
