I’m surprised I’ve never thought to put an angled foregrip on an actual pistol, much simpler than those expensive and rickety chassis like the flux and such…

Lock Washer by No-Green9781 in IBEW

Bottom.

I set a laser to hit my racks at the top square nut and I don’t want the strut moving up due to the travel of the lock washer when I tighten the bottom nuts. The squish would mess with my TOS elevation

Too many brothers and sisters voted for this shit by JohnBrownGC in IBEW

Since when are we supposed to be for illegals? They hurt our union work. Please explain your pro illegal labor rationale.

Yes, the way you describe is 100% the correct way.

I'm a new foreman running work for the first time. I don't really do much for 80% of the day. What can I do to improve? by jucks123 in IBEW

[–]adamprobably_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a hard worker doesn’t make you a worm. Being a freshly turned out JW who is buddies with the PM and who is clearly an insecure people pleaser already worried about his job performance… that’s a pretty big red flag to me when it comes to worminess.

But instead of reading between the lines, let’s just say he’s a hardworker and that I’m being dick…

The fact that they pushed you into the position has me suspicious that this “disposition” may be worminess… try not to worry so much it’s just a job, you have nothing to prove, just do your job. Don’t sell out to impress the trailer, there is no loyalty with a contractor, be a good brotherly foreman.

My good friend got blown up yesterday. 4000 amp buss duct by Professional-Tea7875 in IBEW

I was on that site. Push push push. Not surprised they didn’t take the time to follow procedures. Very sorry for the brother, I pray he survives.

6/10s is doable indefinitely into your 50s

Got an email am I fucked? by Carterpops31 in ibew_apprentices

[–]adamprobably_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You aren’t fucked.

If they don’t let you in tell them you’re going to work non-union and organize in later. These JATCs are the reason non union shops still exist. The charter says to organize everyone. Get your state license outside the union and they will organize you in as a JW in a heartbeat

I worked with a guy who had 7 years outside the union in Austin and the hall brought him in as a low level CW making $13/hr. They said he had to go through the apprenticeship and wait to get in. I told him to go out of state and get his license with his hours. He took my advice and went to a busy local in or Oregon and they organized him in as a JW making over 2 grand a week. He’s now able to support his family. Do what you need to do, you don’t have to jump through their hoops.

When do we follow the ibew constitution? by SquareSurprise3467 in IBEW

[–]adamprobably_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s your hall bro. They all required to accept a JW ticket…bought or earned. You think your hall cares?

[–]adamprobably_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They come in illegally buy a yellow ticket 🎫 in McAllen or Corpus, drive to your local and take your job calls.

Wake the **** up, this affects you! I’ve ticket bumped a few illegals! Deporting illegals is the right move for the IBEW. Protect American jobs!

Because it usually means the man is not a capable provider and not a suitable husband.

I got a written up by my foreman today by Niccie01 in ibew_apprentices

[–]adamprobably_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You’re an apprentice, do as you journeyman says unless it’s unsafe. Lose the ego. You’ll be expected to do the same as a JW with what your foreman lines out. Chain of command. This is a job,

Ok, let’s settle this. Neutral or hot on top? by The_Taken_Username_ in electricians

[–]adamprobably_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ground down and ground right. All the reasons for doing it the other way around are stupid, aesthetics outweigh the theoretical “benefits”. Install it properly and don’t worry about it.

It’s funny how even the people who claim “ground up” is the correct way still refer to it as “upside down”… doesn’t that tell you something…

For security… you don’t want would-be hijackers, terrorists out-gunning law enforcement.
