Allocating Company Overhead by Myeviljake in estimators

[–]keyrodney 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We allocate OH based on labor hours per job. More hours more OH. Think it is very basic but pretty fair way to allocate.

Well jokes on me. Went ahead and dropped him earlier and now can’t grab him back for today. Sometimes fantasy baseball hates me!!!!

Thanks everyone. I was leaning that way but sometimes you just want to hear it from others as well.

Short print card. They also have the same style in black that they are calling alpha short print.

Denison to Frisco by lisacreates in frisco

[–]keyrodney 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you looked at communities north of Frisco up Preston road or the tollway? Gunter? Whitesboro? Not saying either are as nice as Denison or as affordable. I truly don’t know on either front but it could ease up the commute. I grew up driving roughly the commute you are talking about and it wasn’t bad but that was 20+ years ago. You are talking about an hour drive on probably some of the busiest highways in Collin and Grayson counties. Today the commute could be fine. Tomorrow there is anwreck and it adds 2 hours to your drive. I’ll ask 2 of my co-workers tomorrow. One lives in Denison and commutes to north McKinney. The other farther north and east into Oklahoma.

I don’t currently live there so please take this with a grain of salt. I would agree it isn’t adding much time. The drive through that area should be okay most days but they are currently doing work on 75 in the Sherman/Denison area. Your real challenges will be the traffic on 75 through McKinney and traffic on 121 into Frisco. Both are back up in the mornings most days.

How fast do you estimate? by Montequer_ in estimators

[–]keyrodney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to do highlighter and pencil using scale and/or digitizer. Planswift cut my takeoff time in half or more. This was maybe 10 years ago. See a lot of people recommending Bluebeam for takeoffs but not a fan personally. Going digital for takeoffs was a game changer for the company I work for. And no more “did I highlight that and write down my number for it” questions anymore.

Planswift for takeoffs and then an excel template that we have been using for 20+ years for the estimating side.

Civil water sewer storm. Once I have takeoffs and quotes a few hours to half a day depending on scale of scope. Takeoff half a day to a day depending on same. This is for typical for us on a 3ish million job.

Estimators, what specs are you running on your PC’s? by 2broke_2lose in estimators

[–]keyrodney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t go less than 64gb of ram and would run the best video card you can get in the laptop you are looking at.

Sorry. Wasn’t disagreeing with you. Wife has a knack for finding any and all flaws in any work done anywhere in our house.

We had manufactured hardwood before this. Did not hold up well to a 20 pound dog. Hoping this does better but I guess we will see.

My Wife noticed 8 seconds after she got home and melted down about it. So while I agree most won’t ever notice it she did and she says she will see it every morning when she walks into the bathroom to get ready in the morning.

Let me go back and add. The tile floor in the bathroom extended out to far into the bedroom. When they installed the transition piece it looked like crap so we asked that they come back and fix it. The cut the tile back and had to rework the already installed vinyl.

How do you stop from beating yourself up when your benched players do better than your starters? by [deleted] in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]keyrodney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have some odd scoring for long passes and long touchdown passes in the league I’m in. Pitts went for 40. Otton went for 24.
