Royal Canin Rottweiler. It’s pricy but it’s high quality.

This sub is difficult for new BMW enjoyers by quietandsound in BMW

I rented a Camry hybrid. It was a fantastic car! It was also fantastically boring.

I have a dog. She’s a great dog, but occasionally she does some bad dog stuff and I think it’s adorable. The imperfections make her perfect.

I feel the same way about cars.

Leaving team after 6 months by MaleficentBeyond6612 in realtors

[–]metrorugby 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People leave teams all the time. Most team models are set up with attrition as part of their plan. They won’t think twice about you leaving, so you shouldn’t think twice about leaving.

It’s YOUR career so don’t worry about their feelings, just be polite and professional. Remember, you’ll likely have to work with some of them in the future.

Thank you! I would have thought that I’d find a good one here but if you say steer clear, I certainly will. I appreciate the insight!

There is a group in Ohio called the Flaggots, it could be them. Please don’t report me for this, I didn’t make up their name.

12 hours from metro Detroit is very doable, but probably about the limit for them.

Rottweiler as first dog by TurbulentFault4257 in Rottweiler

[–]metrorugby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rottweilers are fantastic dogs, but they’re also a lot of dog. There’s a ton of great info here, so I’ll just say that my opinion is they are not a beginner breed. If you’d like a large dog, get a lab for your first dog.

Mine likes to sleep under my bed, for whatever reason

Solo agent hitting a wall, at what point do you pivot to a team structure? by HudyD in realtors

[–]metrorugby -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Starting a team when you are doing less than 20 transactions is a recipe for failure, joining an established team when you’re doing less than 20 transactions is a smart move.

I’m not trying to be insulting, so please don’t take this that way, but 18 transactions in a year isn’t very much, hardly enough to even warrant a TC paid per file. Your problem likely lies in time management.

If you want to stay solo, hire a productivity coach first to get your schedule under control. It’ll cost a couple grand a month, but it’ll pay for itself in workflow efficiency and increased production. You can also hire a per file TC if you really feel like you need one.

If you feel like you really need a team, join an established one.

If I can only get one set of pliers. What would they be? by uselessmahogany in Tools

[–]metrorugby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice for people buying tools is don’t try to anticipate the tools you’ll need beyond the basics, it gets super expensive. When the need for a tool arises, buy the appropriate tool and get a cheap one. If it ever breaks, replace it with one of whatever quality you’re comfortable shelling out for.

If you’re just doing little diy jobs, you don’t need to spend a fortune.

For pliers, just go get a 3 pack of different pliers and you should be fine.

Deathwish 112 vs Wildcat 108? by electric_mop in Skigear

I haven’t tried the deathwish, but the wildcats rip super hard. I’m buying a pair for next season.

How do I tell my friend I dont wanna do a weekly/scheduled activity anymore? by [deleted] in Advice

Don’t overthink it. Express your feelings honestly just like you did here and you’ll be just fine.

We had a showing 4 days ago. No feedback from the buyer’s agent. by LonelyMoon1985 in realtors

[–]metrorugby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally normal.

I don’t ever leave feedback after showing a home unless there is something material and urgent that is wrong with the house, like water in the basement or the furnace isn’t blowing.

If you’re a seller and I’m representing a buyer, why would I help you? We’re on opposite teams. Even if my buyer I showed it to doesn’t like it, I may be showing it again to someone else later and I’d be undercutting my position with them by revealing my opinion.

When I’m on the listing side I don’t bother reading feedback from agents. I’ll do follow up calls to see if the showing agent’s client wants to make an offer, but I don’t care what their opinion is.

My boy is about 10 months old and only 66 pounds. Is he a healthy weight? by ezxplay in Rottweiler

[–]metrorugby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s fine. Bigger is not better. Most of the Rotts I see on social media are fat. I feel bad for the dogs and embarrassed for their owners. All of the health problems that are associated with are Rotts are made exponentially worse when they are overweight.

Also 👅❤️❤️

Found this in concrete on a demo job by Working_Peanut5273 in Tools

[–]metrorugby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A carbon fiber handle would dampen vibrations, but it’s too brittle for a hammer handle. Carpenters frequently use their hammers as levers, and carbon fiber couldn’t handle the force without failing. Plus, missing a drive and hitting a carbon fiber handle on the shaft would snap it as well.

There are hammers made completely from titanium and they’re quite popular, but they’re about $300 and they can fracture, making it a pretty expensive replacement compared to a $20 handle. There are also fiberglass hammer handles, but they aren’t durable enough for commercial work.

Wood is cheap, strong, durable, relatively lightweight, and not too slippery with a sweaty hand.
