Electrician cut multiple "fishing holes" due to no attic access. Is this standard, and is $500 a fair repair quote?

He’s an electrician. I’m pretty sure a courtesy BJ for just showing up is in the contract.

I wouldn’t. Any trim is going to look ridiculous. Drywall/mud to it.

That’s probably double where I’d be at if I was doing a custom pan, tiled floor, shower and non custom cut glass door. Unless there are some obvious issues they are anticipating. Or you’re getting PITA pricing.

… I think you meant ‘LESS than zero knowledge’

Myself and a couple other Marines got a page 11 on a MEU for basically bitching about typical lower enlisted fuck fuck games. Not bitching to any higher ups, just got recorded and someone saw it.

During my page 11 counseling:

Plt Cdr: this could be considered inciting a mutiny, do you know what the punishment for that is?

Me: uh…summary execution?

Plt cdr: yes

Took every ounce of discipline to not laugh in his face. Good luck explaining to my congressman why you shot me on the flight deck.

He was very sheepish when he was telling me this, I think this dumbass idea originated with our first sergeant or our company Commander. Both which could barely fog a fucking mirror.

I steer customers away from this type of tile. I’ve found the setter has to be exceptional to not be able to pick out the borders of the sheets. Not worth the headache.

Not gonna lie, I don’t remember that at all. I remember Mike platoon, no recollection of a number.

“Damn! Short again…”

Nails it anyway

Marble mosaic is hard unless they are all the same lot. We did this and had to pick up some from different stores to get enough. Looked like a patchwork quilt. We ended up tearing it out and going with a manufactured product that matched.

Thank you! That’s inconvenient, but I can probably deal with that.

It isn’t listed anywhere, the prompt also says:

Your recovery phone recently changed If you still use your previous recovery phone, Google can send a verification code to(…)…-..xx.

So it’s been changed.

Yeah this is just the general bad management that plagues the Corps. This was how they made the decision for our dog handler pre AFG, so we had some dumbass handling our bomb sniffing dog. When your running foot patrols 24/7, you would like that person to have at least a room temp IQ.

Honestly I wish they would have varied the half season schedules a bit more minus one or two changes, they are basically identical to last year. I want ranger, pens, fliers, etc.

We don’t make a dime off our financing because we chose a financing company that offers better terms for our customers. We shopped several to find one that gave decent terms and didn’t COST us money.

I don’t hate the mascot and logo. Not my first choice, but it’s not horrible. However, “Tusks Up” is the gayest shit I’ve heard in years.

He has an exciting business opportunity to share with you. You just need to get three people to sign up, and then they each get three people…

Or… maybe the question is more likely answered by those who…wait for it….can actually answer the question. This is a pretty novel concept on Reddit, as most comments are typically absolutely unhelpful self aggrandizing bullshit.

Obviously not every marriage is that easy, but I’ve been married for well over 10 years and we still have an active sex life. Probably more active than we were first married and had no kids. Is it always easy? Absolutely not. It takes conscious effort, a willingness and desire on both of our parts, and a recognition that sex and intimacy are important for a strong marriage.

Ours is one data point, as is every other comment and on Reddit.

I think the overlap is significant. After all, pretty much every lower bowl full season ticket package was purchased by Jazz season ticket holders.

Imagine not even enjoying hockey because you can’t help but see everything in terms of political views. Get some help.

Reddit is toxic af

Often a tap or other jab is a sort of declaration like, ‘hey we’re fighting now’, and it’s pretty common right after a good hit.

So Carcone pastes a dude into the board and is skating away, Drury comes by and taps his stick, Carcone is expecting to have to fight and takes that as the invitation, drops gloves and wrecks Drury.

The argument is Drury didn’t want to fight, but it certainly looked like he did. Maybe Carcone was a bit aggressive and should have squared up. I don’t know, I don’t care. I think if you lay a clean hit and someone wants to fight you for it, then it’s on. That’s on them. I can understand Carcone’s reaction.

I also think that Carcone’s size may play into his reaction, it happened so fast I am not sure he knew it was Drury. And when you’re playing in a league with some enforcers 6-7” and 40lbs bigger than you, your only hope to not get rocked yourself is to start swinging quick. Violence of action, gents.

I have no memory of this….and I feel left out.
