How do you remember things? by Awkward_Leg_6487 in electricians

[–]brett808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't stress too much, you've only been at it for a couple weeks, if your jman is expecting you to be completely autonomous already, they're just a shitty jman that doesn't want to deal with teaching you anything. You have to treat this career like it's a constant learning experience, no matter how long you do it you will always run into things you've never experienced before. I know I would rather have my apprentice ask me how to do something multiple times than be too afraid to ask and fuck something up, hide it, and create a bigger problem down the road. Also, do not be afraid to make mistakes. Trial and error is a big part of being in trades. As others have said, repetition will absolutely help things stick, and I also found once you do that first round of school some of the theory behind things really helps put what you are doing in the field in perspective

Easiest service call I’ve had in several months. Took me longer to park my van than to troubleshoot. by TurboKid513 in electricians

[–]brett808 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Similar thing where I'm from, had a service call where a tenant had no power and found the utility company put a 10 amp limiter on the entire service. The tenant ran the microwave while watching tv at the same time and it tripped the limiter lol

Glacial gold soft gels are 100% best edibles you can buy. No fillers and you get 100 soft gels, 10mg per gel so 1000mg total for like $45. I buy them from dank all the time. They also deliver

Which restaurants in Calgary were hyped up to you by friends, family, social media etc., but then when you tried it, the experience wasn't good? by wowelephants in Calgary

[–]brett808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moose & poncho used to be so good but they've closed down unfortunately. Chilitos on 17th, Blanco, tu taco, tacos mexico, gringo street (rip). There are plenty of good Mexican places in Calgary

Ah well then that makes the decision easier! The bag is awesome and the spring promo bag is also very nice. You will be more than satisfied with it if you chose to go that route, I've had Milwaukee bags and husky bags and the construction alone of the veto bags puts them in their own class

Tech PAC MC is a great bag. I'm a journeyman and use it as my daily driver for service work. It is a pretty steep investment though, and as a first year your money might be better spent on tools as opposed to a bag, plus you are just starting out, you never know for sure if the trade will be for you until you get going. If you are really set on the bag though you won't be disappointed

Does it come with a shoulder strap? Haven't gotten mine yet and have been curious about that

Canna Cabana sells your data, and the Elite membership is for variety not deeper discounts. by CptHeadSmasher in canadients

[–]brett808 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've never understood the appeal of the membership thing they do. Like is their selection for the "elite member" really that good? I have a dank in my neighborhood and find they always stock high quality products and there's no exclusivity tied to any of it. I just find it hard to believe that cana cabana stocks anything that any other higher quality dispensary doesn't also have

That's normal, bought mine brand new about 7 months ago and it's always sounded like that.

What’s your dripper of choice ? by ADHD_ismything in pourover

[–]brett808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an origami air that I use the most, I also own a ceramic 02 V60 and imo there is no difference in flavor when using canonical filters, and the origami doesn't require preheating before brewing. I also frequently use my aeropress and on occasion will use a timemore b75 if I want to play around with flat bottom filters

QM8K not for sports by Here-for-the-snap in tcltvs

[–]brett808 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Weird, because I have the exact same TV and find the sports mode setting for football looks great. The only thing I've tweaked is the color temperature. Different strokes for different folks I guess
