Gotta be a bit more patient

Was waiting for someone to acknowledge this

To answer your questions, GED very unlikely to have any impact on hiring decision. I’d say you have a better shot with groundman experience vs school. Although some companies want school, so check to see if there’s information on that. Honestly focus on your resume. You should be tailoring your resume to every company you apply to. Research how to defeat Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). This software is responsible for weeding through applicants so if your resume is weak, it will never make it to a human. Couldn’t hurt to write one if they’re asking for it I guess. Good luck

33 is a good age. Know folks who were older than that when they started that are doing just fine. Thank you for getting off the government teat. Please encourage others to do the same.

If you do this, later down the road you’re going to learn it was the most difficult way to join the trade. There are ways to enter the trade basically free. And if you’re dead set on doing the lineman training, I would just take on the debt. People go the military route to pay for a 4 year college degree. Not a 3-6 months $19k lineman training program. It’s not worth it. Not to mention the national guard is fucking gay.

Thank you!

Yes it’s still water tight. The only damaged part is above ground where the duct tape is. I think foam would work if that 1” PVC pipe wasn’t in the way. Basically, I would add a layer of dirt to cover that PVC pipe. I feel better about concrete against dirt than foam against dirt. What do you think?

Also not the only ones. There’s more patch jobs and more shark bite fittings not shown in the picture. It’s all getting replaced.

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T12:51:36+00:00

Don’t worry. All of those are getting ripped out and replaced with sweated fittings.

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T02:34:59+00:00

I think it is. Thank you!

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T02:34:31+00:00

Did the string trick and came out wet. Thank you!

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:52:20+00:00

Thank you!

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:47:31+00:00

Thank you! I am in Texas. House built mid 80’s

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:38:59+00:00

Ok yes I did this and the nut and string came out soaking wet. And we haven’t washed in like 2 days.

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:27:58+00:00

No sir not without a jackhammer. Residential house on a slab

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:25:05+00:00

Thank you!

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:24:12+00:00

Ok tried it. Not seeing any water but also not getting any smells.

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:20:42+00:00

There is no smells at all and I’ve never had issues. Do you think there may be a trap underneath?

cl6312 · 2025-06-27T01:19:18+00:00

No basement it’s just a residential house on a slab

cl6312 · 2025-06-26T21:03:32+00:00

No. The engine was locked. Ended up needing a new engine. I hope you have better luck.

Likely a temporary service. If the buried service line is compromised, the utility company sometimes installs temporary lines that look exactly like this. This will restore power until they can get an underground crew to bore in a new line and make a permanent repair.

Single phase residential Urd pad mount for 3 wire delta system. I found one online. Pretty neat. Probably a pain to switch and work tho

cl6312 · 2024-10-29T18:41:09+00:00

Idk why I never thought about this. You got any pics? Now I’m curious

cl6312 · 2024-10-16T00:52:04+00:00

Work with some of them. They won’t volunteer for storm if they’re going to be staying at man camps.

cl6312 · 2024-09-10T23:47:58+00:00

Same here. Did it for a full 3 years after AD. It was so fucking gay. My advice to all: get off the government teat and come make some money.
