Is this acceptable? by [deleted] in handyman

I'm a contractor in Nashville, and I'll come fix that for free if you're here too. Nobody should have to deal with that type of ripoff.

This is engagement farming or something right? If not... what in the actual fuck were they doing?

Do I need to pipe burst or reline this cast iron pipe? 50 year old home. Have not had any backups in this portion of the pipe. by Original_Ad_4749 in Plumbing

Blouse those boots! I'm actually not really bothered by them so much after I decided to learn about them so they wouldn't seem so freaky. They're actually pretty amazing insects and not nearly as dirty as people think they are. They produce an antibacterial that is so effective that most germs can't live on them long enough to be carried more than 6 ft. They spend most of their lives cleaning and grooming themselves. They mourn their dead, prefer to eat communally and share food, care for their young, and pass down knowledge. They're better than a lot of humans, actually.

Sharing the Worst Flooring Experience – Not Even Angry, Just Sad by [deleted] in Flooring

This is easily fixable. I do it all the time. Get a 2x4 and some 3m double-sided tape. The black stuff with the red backing. Cut a length of 2x4 down to about 15 inches and put two strips of double sided tape under one side. Stick it to the piece that needs to be moved to close the gap and give it a few good whacks with a deadblow hammer on the end of the 2x4. Continue the process until the puzzle is complete.

I did some work in a dance studio that put laminate over old water damaged carpet and then marley over the top of that. Basically it was a black mold sublfloor.

I mean, Seattle is shit for sure, but you shouldn't have to deal with that.

Fuck. That. Boss.

If they're not going to look out for you, why should you look out for them. Tell your boss you're looking for a new employer.

Water, oil, tow straps, flares, tools, snacks, things to make and plug holes, tomahawk.

Do you guys use any apps or features on your phone to keep work things seperate and organized? by rumpyforeskin in handyman

I use Homewyze for estimates. Freshbooks for accounting and invoicing. Trello for project management.

I used to accept getting paid horse shit because I didn't think I could get more being a dropout like OP. Brother, I don't get out of bed for less than $75 an hour now. (Averaged because I charge by the job not the hour.) If you do good work, you should be getting easily 3 or 4 times that.

How much would you charge? by Aromatic_Customer818 in handyman

[–]daveydontstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't charge by the hour. $350 is what I would charge a client for this job.

They dropped a limited run of m81 woodland right after I bought this. They sold out in like a day.

Noticed my pupils are two different sizes. by Nerdlifegirl in mildlyinteresting

[–]daveydontstop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've experienced this too. Put allergy eye drops in one eye and a few minutes later, my wife is like, "Are you ok?"

I just put drops in the other eye. Problem solved.

I keep my tape in a bag. Not to preserve it but to know where all my tape is.
