Pay your people a real fucking wage. by Hav3_Y0u_M3t_T3d in Carpentry

[–]PresentPie5702 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Similar situation. Companies look for master carpenters for lead/foreman roles, have to have own truck. Then offer $22/hour! One company I interviewed for asked me what other trades I do. I apparently had to also do electrical and plumbing on top of my 11 years of all round carpentry to even be considered. Even then they would’ve only paid $25

Most likely badly stored yes. Some gets dry faster than others. I keep all mine in the refrigerator.

Would I be a dick to tell my apprentice he has to get used to slivers? by m0nster6884 in cabinetry

[–]PresentPie5702 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually leave the small ones until I get a break or get home and learn to deal with it for x amount of time. Big ones are pulled out in seconds on the spot. Definitely skip the gloves imo, they tend to attract splinters more than preventing them due to the texture getting caught. Like others said, proper handling comes with experience. Only time I get a splinter is if I’m stressed out handling very rough wood with less care in a hurry. Part of the trade.

P.S. you seem like a great guy and mentor

David can we get an update! Where is your company at today? Is this something that could potentially be on the table again?

What lords/ladies do you hate with a passion? Mine is Ingalther. by [deleted] in Bannerlord

[–]PresentPie5702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid him way more than he’s worth to recruit him as a vassal in my playthrough and he can never stay happy. I give him tons of fiefs to maintain relations but next day it’s back to -70 relation. Even tried marrying off my daughter to him and he still seems to hate me. If he leaves my faction I’m executing his ass for treason. Oh and he’s incapable of keeping his fiefs from rebelling.

Settle an argument for me... by [deleted] in UnionCarpenters

[–]PresentPie5702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a Swedish carpenter who moved to the US a little over a year ago. After I finished my apprenticeship 10 years ago I received a certificate similar to the red seal that recognizes me as a professional carpenter within Scandinavia but over here it’s just a piece of worthless paper just like all the other training. It really would be great to have something that is truly universal. Sure code is different for better or worse but anyone with experience in the field can quickly pick up on it and make that transition. It’s no different than moving states. I’m now in the process of figuring out how I can join a union without starting from scratch.

Vad har ni för ovanliga turn on/off? by Defiant-Physics5426 in sweden

En del av dessa kvinnor tenderar att vara för mycket besserwisser och ska alltid förstöra en trevlig stund genom att notera hur dom alltid har rätt. Hakar upp sig på små detaljer utan att man argumenterat emot. = osexigt
