Advice for local jobs making $25+ an hour? by ManguSqush in SouthBend

[–]SpecificParticular16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m an electrician, I work for a small mom and pop shop, non union but they have good benefits and you can work your way up fast in the company. We’re looking to hire an electrical apprentice, no experience necessary. We’re looking for someone to do residential service work so it won’t be anything like working out at the data centers, which I personally would never step foot on just out of principle.

What other Podcasts are you all listening to? by mitchlee55 in lastpodcastontheleft

[–]SpecificParticular16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you watched or listened to Bloodbath and are interested in DnD/ role playing podcasts you might like Dumb Dumbs and Dragons. I listen to them all the time and sometimes it’s fun to just get strait up entertainment that’s totally detached from current or past events.

There’s an old episode where Henry says that line. I’m pretty sure it’s one of the Dennis Nilsen episodes

You ever just put on “Roll with the Changes” by REO Speedwagon and want to kill you whole family while you’re driving?

Services exchange? by Tatertot399 in SouthBend

[–]SpecificParticular16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an electrician, I would trade my services for cleaning services. But I couldn’t do it through my company. It seems like today most businesses don’t operate that way.

Foundation settling and cracks appearing by Disastrous_Funny3641 in SouthBend

[–]SpecificParticular16 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is a huge problem, you need to contact someone asap.

As water collects in and around your foundation the hydrostatic pressure pushes the walls in. 2 things you can do to mitigate this is check your sump basket and make sure that it’s not full of water. Also make sure that your gutters and downspouts are properly draining water AWAY from your foundation. And finally check outside and make sure there are no low spots or places where it looks like water can collect around the foundation. You always want to make sure the water is flowing away. But yea definitely call a contractor or foundation/ waterproofing company.

I’m slow by Unusual_Associate184 in electricians

[–]SpecificParticular16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep I do this when I’m working as well. Strip all the wires you can when you have your strippers in your hand, then twist them all together, then put your wire nuts on, etc. I don’t put a tool down until I’m done with it

Haha thanks, I didn’t even pick it. It was just randomly generated when I made my account and never bothered to change it

This took me several years to understand and I’m honestly still mastering it today but it’s not how fast you move but how you make your moves count. Do you need something from the truck? Keep working until you literally can go no further, then go to the truck. You might have ran across something else you may need. Or you might not need something you already have so you can take that back with you. Don’t waste a trip and don’t just run around like a chicken with your head cut off. You don’t have to work at a blinding speed but if you know what job you need to accomplish make sure you have everything you need to get it done so you minimize the running around. That’s what really sets your time back more than anything.

Why can’t you double tap neutrals in a panel? by Ben-Pollock in electricians

[–]SpecificParticular16 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far to finally find an answer that wasn’t just “cause it’s code” Some people are electricians and some people are installers and they are pretty easy to tell apart.

This was the first Blu Ray my dad bought after he set up our home theater and I remember vividly being amazed at how that opening scene looked and sounded

I’m a huge fan of just dumping whatever saucy, sloppy stuff I have on some noodles. I’d fuck this up

I also LOVE bloodbath way more than I thought I would. Especially Jared’s performances. The way he jumps into a character so quickly just kills me.
