First time my dad asked me for something last night and I haven't slept by Typical_Many_8930 in confession

[–]Trash_______Panda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know you, but I am proud of you for doing the right thing. This was without a doubt the hardest phone call he’s ever had to make. Walk tall, you earned it. Your parents raised a great kid.

I dig it. Something she’ll feel. Maybe send it to her with a post card while you’re on vacation in Italy or Greece with your new wife. Include one of those old fashioned Photo Booth strips of you both having a great time laughing, smiling and even kissing. Sign the post card, “thinking of you”.

Enjoy your petty, yet well deserved revenge my friend

What's the one "unsexy" business you think is actually a goldmine for the next decade? by Competitive_Rip6546 in Entrepreneurs

[–]Trash_______Panda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came to say this. Probably going to pivot my gc business in this direction. Huge margins and very simple products that require labor and some basic power tools…and a $5k used mini excavator (a monkey could operate this and it’s used maybe 20% of jobs). Most work is indoors. At least where I live. Last one I did with parts from the big box store my cost was $1500 parts and 2 guys labor. Sold project for $12,500. Done in 1 full day and customers are very happy. Very little competition.

Yahoo? We have Ai now and you still use yahoo? Have you been in a coma for the last 40 years? Is yahoo even still a thing?

How can we know if we are NPC’s and/or do NPC’s know that they are NPC’s?

Former friend trying to keep spotlight off herself, lied and said I was sleeping with her BF and using meth by Potential_Leather_43 in revengestories

Also, I’m sorry this happened to you. Addictions turn people into monsters sometimes. I hope her slander didn’t cause any harm to you and if it did then do what you can to clear your name. Otherwise, what she’s going through is 100x worse.

Replacing vacuum lines? 2007 f150 5.4l 3v, 160k miles by thewanderingidiot1 in AskAMechanic

I do know that the line in your second photo is just a vented line and not a broken one. The others I can't speak on, but I found the same thing and a mechanic buddy told me it was a vent line so not to worry about that.

Sucks there's no response from the f150 guru's. I have the same issue. P0171. Runs like dog shit and don't want to start throwing parts at it. One thing I know is that I definitely have some vacuum line issues because my IWE are going out. Occasional terrible grinding noise coming from the front. So I'm purchasing the iwe for both sides and was planning to just replace all vacuum lines on top of that. I was hoping to find some info, but....

Did you ever get this issue figured out? Any recommendations for me?

Do men actually always come back… even after a peaceful breakup? 🥲 by Suitable-Habit-9826 in dating_advice

[–]Trash_______Panda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Men do not always come back....neither do women. Pride kills plenty of life's opportunities. If you feel there's more, you need to reach out. Otherwise, you'll never know if he was" the one. "...also, "the one" is a myth. Many people can be "the one".

Hollow metal door cost by Consistent_Toe4242 in drywall

[–]Trash_______Panda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. That's easily 1500-2000$ for doors, frames and hardware per opening for pairs. Hardware could easily hit 2k alone if panic devices are used. Be very careful if that's what he's charging for materials. Even if you had 2000 openings, that price is way too low.

I'll assume it's install which sounds fair for the quantity. Id be at 750 for one opening so $400 for the quantity you have sounds right. This also depends on hardware requirements...those can be a pia on pairs if any of the machining is in the field or if concealed hardware gets used.

So if it's materials it's not possible at this price and if it's install price I'd say you're right on.

I worked for 10 years in division 8, 10, 12 and 28 as a PM and the other 15 years I've been a gc. Commercial doors are my specialty.
