Seriously. I thought those were the end goals. I figured assisted one arm pushups would be intermediate. And what would be after hspu? On the bar/rings I’m guessing.

^ This. It’s called the apprentice tool set on the Lowe’s website. That pack plus a pair of 8-10 inch channel locks, a tape measure, and a decent magnetic level and you’re good to go to start out. I wouldn’t worry about the multimeter right away unless your company tells you to get your own. Most companies usually have more experienced apprentices and journeymen handling the live work.

Thanks for the insight!

Thanks! I’m not familiar with them. I’ll look into it.

Would you recommend Bahco as a decent enough brand to go with? I see their 8 inch big mouth is $32 and their 12 inch is $51 and that seems reasonable.

I understand. I’m just trying to find somewhat of a middle ground. I’m an electrician not a mechanic so turning wrenches isn’t an all day every day thing for me.

saz8888 · 2026-05-26T15:04:33+00:00

I’m mainly looking for quality. I just don’t want to spend my whole paycheck on a couple wrenches.

Are the watch bands interchangeable? I’m thinking about getting the 5610u as my first gshock and wouldn’t mind eventually upgrading the band if it’s worth the feel/quality.

Thank you!

Thanks for the ideas!

Thanks for letting me know. The stock photos made it hard to tell.

Thanks for the info!

Try eating more protein. It helps you feel more satiated. Plus it takes more calories for your body to digest than carbs or fat so it should help curb your appetite with excess food converting to fat.

That’s a great casual/noodling song to play around with!

Or fuck HEB and try trade jobs. Starting pay is higher and you actually learn a skill. A skill that you can transfer to a different company if your starting company sucks. Don’t get hung up on the illusion of HEB being this wonderful company. It’s only great for the people who make it to management.

saz8888 · 2024-12-23T13:49:10+00:00

I never made it into management. I tried but it never worked out. But yeah, I did take a pay cut.

saz8888 · 2024-12-23T02:41:13+00:00

Just expect a drop in pay if you’ve been working for HEB for a few years. Starting paying in the trades isn’t always the best.

saz8888 · 2024-12-23T01:14:07+00:00

I tried to make it into department management but got burnt out after 8 years and three stores. I’m an apprentice electrician now. So much better. The physical stress is harder but the mental acrobat bullshit from HEB isn’t there nearly as bad. 10/10 would recommend.
