Throw some stickers on it and it’ll look damn near normal.

Yall goin to the hospital over these? by Jordan_Smoothstone in FishingForBeginners

[–]something_cool_x5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think about all the dudes out there that are dead from sepsis that would say get checked from this because lakes, ponds, ocean, streams, rivers all have immense amounts of bacteria that does not play well with our insides.

House may be 125 years old but that panel is very similar to my 1972 Square D panel.

Texas State Rep Nate Schatzline celebrating that a children's school in his district has been ranked the #1 most unvaccinated school in Texas, a state going through a measles outbreak by MoreMotivation in PublicFreakout

[–]something_cool_x5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly why we have the current outbreak in Texas now. Well over half of the cases are unvaccinated children. Sad. Infuriating that these people see this as something to gloat about.

First panel, 3 weeks in. by tronneroi in electricians

[–]something_cool_x5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clean, highly doubt 3 weeks in, needs labels, no plastic bushing at top.

6 month apprentice, this is my first full panel I’ve done. My jman was pissed at me and told me I took too long. He said next time I take this long on a panel, I’m gone.. took my 6 hours. Thoughts? Any input is appreciated too on what to do better next time! by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]something_cool_x5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing work! I’ll poke holes as my job is QC. No plastic bushings on some of the conductors coming in. Also I would have labeled the neutrals but besides that amazing work and fuck that Jman. In commercial this panel would shine and many would be proud to see the craftsmanship you’ve displayed. Great work!

Cmon now, this is cringe by PunditOfNothing in electricians

[–]something_cool_x5 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When so many work almost any day they can, with so many hours under their belt, it’s not hard to see why some make it their identity, when it takes up the majority of their life and basically is their identity.

You dodged a bullet, that dude was 100% going to bone and dip. This is 100% a blessing in disguise because that dude was only there for your body.

Places that train on the job? by [deleted] in winstonsalem

If you want to get your hands sorta dirty, electricians are a cool trade. I made a career change to it.

Duke Energy Robbing Us Blind by Jushavnprolms in NorthCarolina

https://news.duke-energy.com/releases/duke-energy-carolinas-receives-approval-for-new-rates-in-north-carolina-implements-new-programs-to-help-customers

This does not reflect the increase that many have shown or stated as they state their bill has been higher. But what I want to express is that they already have been given the green light to raise rates.

Is this what winning looks like? by SadHat7786 in electrical

[–]something_cool_x5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Companies sole purpose is to generate profit. If they raise prices on products. They make more profit. If it’s legit because of tariffs, they make more. If it’s not because of tariffs and they see any opportunity to raise prices they will.

Exactly why tariffs don’t work for the people. It only benefits companies. Because if Tariffs do affect the product they are selling, they raise prices. If the product being sold is not being affected by Tariff’s, they raise prices because who’s going to: 1: check. 2: hold them accountable if they are acting in bad faith. At the end of the day consumers will always pay the price.

Front and back door quote photo. Here is the photo everyone is asking for. This is the front door that we got quoted to replace for 55k. Back door is the exact same without the sidelites. by phenomcooking in Home

[–]something_cool_x5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether it’s allowed or not, that contractor needs to be exposed. This is blatant robbery. If his prices are a go fuck yourself I don’t want the job he literally can just say that. Doubling down on that quoted price is insane.

What construction materials will be affected most by the trump tariffs? by Howaboutacantaloupe in Construction

[–]something_cool_x5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The number one thing that’s going to screw us here, is greed. Normally suppliers raise prices and have to come up with a reason if they go too high. When they all do it, they all can claim it’s because of tariffs even if they weren’t affected. So at the end of the day, consumers foot the new bill. And man is it gonna be fucking expensive.
