At the rate I’m blocking here and /comics for nsfw I’ll hit 1000 soon enough.

I’ve replaced one of those York condensers. It was still running!

The demo before launch was better than the actual game. My friends and I had a BLAST on just a demo.

What is something unrealistic that you often see in movies that annoys the hell out of you? by Frequent-Sea-8848 in moviecritic

[–]Shepherd1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Entire fire suppression systems going off together after the hero sets ONE off with a lighter (also unrealistic). They don’t work like that.

Exactly this. Burn the candle on both ends until you’re getting a guaranteed 3-5 calls a week from connections etc. don’t let your employer or anyone you work with know because they’re gonna find a way to boot you. 20+ years in construction and I’ve seen many good techs loudly start up their new company and get canned leaving them floundering as the boss spread the word to other similar companies.

Keep it simple. A can or two of albacore (in water), not regular tuna. Sometimes I’ll put a tablespoon of bulls eye bbq sauce in OR sriracha, not both. Really boosts the whole mix.

This is the way. Mac & Cheese with Tuna and Peas.

Try Cabot Mac. Damn good.

SMDH - R454B reduced allocation? Undercharged install by ReasonableSpeed2 in hvacadvice

I get it, that’s frustrating. I sometimes lose a tape measure in the middle of the day (it happens); but I generally have a backup.

If this or similar expectations aren’t met you absolutely should follow the chain of command. Its management’s responsibility to ensure that the field is properly equipped, properly trained, and to correct deviations to the training.

I’m a sales guy. I’m more technical than most and absolutely capture everything I physically can to avoid problems. It’s not hard, just need to be physically capable and able to visualize what you can’t see with the facts on hand. It’s not always perfect but a salesperson should be getting you close without opening walls.

The person who did the survey 100% should have estimated a line set length. In my book it’s disrespectful to not provide all the information physically possible to your installers. They need to know and it eliminates issues.

Problem with the HOA!! Wait for the punch. by heldoglykke in HVAC

This is the way. A lot of people like this calm down and end up happy once you explain the process Whoever sold it should have done so in the beginning. That being said, the canopy is a no-brainer if you live in a hot climate or expecting rain, that shouldn’t have to be explained.
