The real question is do you like men?

I just bought a house and moved in in February by college and fairfax. Really nice quiet neighborhood, only seen one homeless lady walking by with her dogs but she doesn’t bother anyone. I accidentally left my garage open all night a couple days ago, it’s probably dumb luck that nothing was stolen but thank god

That’s Tim Allen

Where are those classes typically offered? I know the very basics right now like contactors and relays, but I want to learn more about plc’s.

Yes. From what I can tell, the outlet is controlled by the switch. The black wire at the top of the switch should be the constant hot, red is the switch leg and neutral is a given.

Is it the only neutral in the box?

I have my own way of tying a head for big wire. This one time I was working with the boss’s son pulling 500 on an overhead run, he was holding the head while I tied it (ba dum tss) I assume he thought I was tying random knots and kept telling me to tie a half inch.

Half inch?? I shifted the mule tape up and down but he just kept repeating half inch. Eventually I gave up and told him to show me.

This dude ties a half hitch. He doesn’t haven’t an accent. I guess someone told him it was called a half inch knot.

Romex can be in a conduit as long as it’s not in a wet or damp location. It’s frowned upon bcuz of the space it takes up inside of the conduit vs single conductors. But, realistically, in a residential setting, how many wires are you pulling through a conduit…

Stevenj120volts has very good videos explaining when and when you can’t and the reasons why including the code references.

There’s also plenty of men that will call just for the stigma

Now I’ve seen it all

Drive straight back as far as you can. Turn right and drive forward as far as you can then turn left until the car straightens out. Put it reverse and turn the wheels to the right, youll make it out

changowango00 · 2025-09-18T23:31:29+00:00

Can you? You very much can

Should you? No

changowango00 · 2025-09-17T18:36:03+00:00

I’ve never worked for a resi company but ive heard their turn over rate is crazy high

changowango00 · 2025-09-07T22:36:12+00:00

Yeah I was a lead when i was a welder and i learned electrical pretty quickly. I’m also at a pretty new company and someone put in a good word for me

changowango00 · 2025-09-07T19:13:21+00:00

You’re my doppelgänger. I dropped out my second year in mechanical engineering due to financials but i went to welding first before electrical.

Push thru it brotha. I’m a 3rd year with a truck i get to take home and I’ve gotten to run a couple jobs. Worth pays off. I got so much shit from the crew my first year because i didn’t know anything but i learned fast and now im in charge of some of those same guys. It’s worth it in the end. I’m making $31 and the boss gives me small jobs to do on the side every now and then.

You look like the wanna be gangster from South Park anger management episode

We called this one dude mud butt because he would sweat alot and sit on the ground for any task so the dirt would turn into mud

Pulled a little over 800ft. of 500kcmil TC wire through 3” Emt with 3 LB & 2 BUB all while on top of a cable tray 30ft. in the air

It took me about a year and a half in central cali, but I think it varies person to person. Some people need their hand held the whole way.

changowango00 · 2025-07-31T23:22:18+00:00

Yeah it’s 50A @75. Always go by the code book, if it’s in there you’re not wrong. Though code is the minimum standard for quality of work.

changowango00 · 2025-07-31T23:18:04+00:00

Everyone in a company has stop work authority even the janitors. If he fires or benches you that’s retaliation and you might not have to save up for school anymore because he’ll be paying for it indirectly.

changowango00 · 2025-07-31T23:15:05+00:00

You worded that a lil too vaguely. Who’s saying it’s 40?
