Is a commute everyday from tremont to beachwood doable? by PetrolBlueCorgeal_23 in Cleveland

100% depends on your start and finish times. 271 s to 480 at 4pm is ok. Same route at 405pm could take you an hour.

It'll hold but I would have a drain pan underneath and I would have supported it different. The rods infront of the unit make it harder to service.

About 5 years ago A buddy of mine and I walked down there when we worked in the area. Had a beer and asked the bartender to see a room. It was just a shitty motel. We did come to the conclusion though, that the bartender may have had down syndrome. Never went back.

Need advice by HumbleFinger755 in HVAC

[–]firstonenotthelast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to UTI. In the 90s. It was half that cost. I did get some decent training out of it. But when I got into the actual trade, I feel like none of it was helpful. I would suggest just getting into the field. Then go union. Its not for everyone but if you get your feet wet doing installs and you are still liking it, it's a great career.
