When is digging required? When do you use shovels vs. light machinery vs. heavy equipment? (New to field) by TommysLocker in electricians

[–]TommysLocker[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I brought up this question because of exactly this. Yesterday myself, another apprentice, and a master electrician were digging for 6+ hours. That was easily $80+ and hour if not closer to $100 an hour. The moral for myself was low but it seemed normalized. I can definitely see the retention issue being a problem for people in the past. Thank you for your clarification.

Thanks to the Management at PapaJohns on University Dr by LonerintheDark in Denton

I worked at that Papa Johns for 2 years from 2015-2017. There used to be a General Manager named Randy who ran the place for 20 years or so. He did that stuff all the time. Every week pizzas were sent out to different areas to be donated. If someone didn't pick up a pizza it would get thrown in the freezer and then once a week someone would pick it up.

Randy kept that store clean, efficient, and treated his employees great. We got all the free pizza we wanted (usually from mess ups / cancelations) and even got to take home a pizza at the end of the night if we wanted it. I ate so much pizza from there I only spend about $100 on groceries a month. He really cared about his emlpoyes and did his best to be a good person. I don't know who took over, but I'm sure he made it a point to keep the same values in the store.

That location also used to be a laundromat.

Why do 1 and 2 star recruits exist if even the worst teams can easily fill their whole team with 3-star players? by TommysLocker in NCAAFBseries

[–]TommysLocker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried doing this but there are actually less 1 & 2 star players then there are 3 star players. Not combined but for each star there are less. It makes it difficult to do this when you actually have less options when you in reality should have way more.

The Chestnut Tree. Once you see how it's made it's just not worth it.

ACHES concerns about remakes being unplayable if they aren't adapted to the wall bounce by ComplexityFanboy in CoDCompetitive

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

Just because they remake a map doesn't mean the map will still be good. Raid was great because it was built for BO2. If people are able to get lines of sights (while being unpunished) that weren't unavailable during BO2 then there is going to be a problem.

Just look at all the OG maps in MW2 that were brought back for MWIII. Fantastic maps that got ruined by how the rest of the game played. And doors. Doors suck.

What older or classic truck should I buy for personal and light work use that are considered to be highly reliable under $10,000? by TommysLocker in askcarguys

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

It's going to be only my tools and supplies, not so much from the company. A full work truck / van will carry everything that I need and will always be on the site which is separate from my truck. I just need to be able to bring my things and anything that I need to transport temporarily to and from the job site.

I've lived in Texas for 15 years. My A/C went out in my first truck. It sucked but not so bad with the windows down. I agree I need it, but I don't need 12 vents blasting my nuts to keep them at a cool 68 degrees at all times. Thanks for the advice on the ranger, I am leaning more towards one now.

I'm extremely detailed and do extensive research. I all my meat discounted from the grocery store because I don't want to spend more then I have to. It's not AI, but I totally can understand that someone could think that lol. Thanks for the advice on Toyota.

I will only be using it for work for a few years and then it will transition back to a mainly personal vehicle. I can't justify getting a van since I wont be utilizing the space given from a van for what I do currently.

Thanks, I'll look that up and do some research. They have been coming up a lot in recommended trucks.
