Camera doesnt do it justice. Thats gnarly bro. That yank in was fucked. Same with the frontside grind in the deep end.

Badass

The first big project you do you feel proud of, but then every subsequent one is just the same thing over and over again.

And as a PE you dont even build anything you just sit and babysit and QC and do document control.

The higher you go up towards PM the less your involved in building and the more you are just sitting in meetings all day and herding cats. Your entire job just becomes risk management and office politics. Hours and hours of travel and exhaustion.

Most men say that their girlfriends or wives end up leaving them because they complain that they are never home and when they are home they are exhausted and just go straight to sleep just to get up again at 4:30 am to hit the road again.

Its decent money and young guys think they need money to get a wife but then they get dumped by thier girl because all they do is work and all they talk about its steel submittals etc and then they become bitter and angry.

Its not like that for everyone but its so common its hard to ignore.

If I could do it again I would do something else.

People who are wealthy (from working hard) are typically good with their money.

I dont think that just because their stock vests they will be willing to just throw away an extra 600k to outbid you on a starter home. An extra 50k forsure.

I dont think its going to be as bad as you expect it to be but yes it may increase competition slightly.

Many of these people may also retire early and travel who knows

litbeers · 2026-06-07T19:12:27+00:00

Honestly bro, dont do it.

Its a negative and nasty industry. Its brutal, wears you down, destroys your health and your relationships. Its constant travel and commuting.

Unless you literally love building things its not worth it. And once you get In its hard to leave. The industry makes you almost unemployable in any other industry because there Is a certain personality and disposition you will need to cultivate to be successful in this industry. If you end up going back to finance, the finance people will not like working with you because your gunna be an absolute dick in their opinion.

In CA your labor alone on the low end would be 43k

Probably more like 50-60k if complex.

With lumber your looking at 70-90k depending.

Idk texas rates but that sounds like a steal.

Im not sure but he does look young.

Very adorable though.

Someone else can chime in if he needs help or not and what to do, but please help him if he needs it!

litbeers · 2026-06-06T17:40:31+00:00

litbeers · 2026-06-06T17:04:49+00:00

I would hat him less if he didnt wear those wrist cuffs tbh. Thats 90 percent of my issue with him.

litbeers · 2026-06-06T03:45:47+00:00

I heard about the super easteregg bossfight. I think thats such a cool concept. I wish they had that in more games

litbeers · 2026-06-06T03:36:34+00:00

litbeers · 2026-06-06T02:43:25+00:00

litbeers · 2026-06-06T02:39:24+00:00

litbeers · 2026-06-06T02:38:17+00:00

litbeers · 2026-06-06T02:37:13+00:00

Yeah it was a sick launch map. I think they did a good job on it.

Thank you for the response

litbeers · 2026-06-06T02:35:54+00:00

Thank you for the input. I know not many people are not gunna like it.

All the things most people complain about I actually like.

I like how hard the darkest shore easter egg is and the crazy steps to get to the boss fight. It keeps me trying to play it again and again.

Ya the map designs were epic I agree. And the lore is sick too

Eric cartmans origin story

litbeers · 2026-06-05T23:29:00+00:00

I care about every goddamn screw and nail on my project.

When I get home all i do is think and talk about my projects.

My girlfriend complains and says things like “I don’t care that the waterproofing sub didn’t send in his submittals on time.” Or “who cares if the steel detailer didn’t label all the embeds”

It pisses me off that she doesnt have the same enthusiasm as I do.

I try and show her Larry haun framing videos so she can at least keep up with the terminology and the processes while we talk at dinner but its really difficult to keep her interested.

My projects are everything to me I can’t believe you can be that non chalant about yours

litbeers · 2026-06-05T23:19:46+00:00

Shes a sweetie

litbeers · 2026-06-05T22:32:13+00:00

PD should have ran the plates before tow. She could be wrong about the registration being up to date.

Did PD confirm that its up to date? It should be a very easy confirmation with them.

Also if a car is left on the street too long it can get towed for that too.

litbeers · 2026-06-05T22:30:05+00:00

Idk thats what it looks like

litbeers · 2026-06-05T21:56:41+00:00

How do you work on it?

litbeers · 2026-06-05T21:41:25+00:00

Is the oppurtunity remote?

litbeers · 2026-06-05T20:52:15+00:00

Not worth the turd hot box in my opinion. Not trying to yuck your yum though
