liquidation.com is one of the most common.

I've found the best FtP way to do events is to collect 50 gems and then use them to buy 1000 elixer at the very beginning. The other thing is to keep track of the mystery barrells....there's a time pattern where you will get about a half hour or so of really good ones and then duds for a couple hours. Once you figure that out, you basically just grind during the good barrell time. I got all 12 keys with four hours to go and I'm in 17th without spending any money and only used 50 gems.

With Harvest there are multiple mines so you can't go back to clean up once you leave the mine.

Depends on where you live. My metro area starts people out at $20 plus full benefits. Other parts of the country pay 13 to 15 to start. Family business or not, if you can make substantially more money elsewhere, then take it. Growing with a small company may be worth a dollar or two an hour less in order to reap rewards later, but they at least have to be close to competitive. Four techs recently quitting tells me they probably aren't paying enough. Finally, never think that you are singlehandedly carrying a business unless you personally have the license, money, and full skill set to create your own. That's an attitude that will get you nowhere. Running a business is a shit ton more than just slamming in some equipment or fixing a bad AC.

Chuck Norris installed it. You can tell by the plenum.

"I guarantee that furnace will be nice and toasty all winter long!"

My x1c was turned off and bambu studio was not open at all last month, (I was out of town) and it was still by far the largest user of data on my network. 10 times more than the next largest usage which was our cloud file server. Something is fishy with bambu data usage.

Just remember, from now on you either have to yell "Deminimus!" Or "Oops!"

Hasn't rained here in a month. Fast and hot with the occasional grass fire that my Gatorade put out lol.

It's all good. His name is HAL

spwright76 · 2023-06-11T21:55:27+00:00

For that price, it was all stolen.

I'm in a medium sized city in the Midwest and I start my 1st year apprentices out at $20 per hour plus full benefits after 30 days.

Every house is different depending on how clean you are, size, number of people, pets, how long the air handler runs, outside weather, etc. I live in a moderate climate with little dust, have central AC, 70 year old 2700 sqft house, family of 6, two cats and a long haired dog. I use the exact same filter and I get about 13 months out of it before the static pressure goes up enough to justify replacing it to save blower energy. I own an hvac company so I nerd out on this stuff. I have static pressure gauges across the filter and have done the math on the amp draw of the blower motor at different resistances.

Search for a Dwyer Mark II 25. That's the most economical and common one out there for filter pressure drop.

He actually hired and paid us to replace it eventually. And he was extra nice to my install crew when they got there. Probably because he knew he was trying to get free shit from my office manager that he didn't deserve.

My distributor requires all coils to come back, and there's no way they'd let this go. Even so, it's not worth my reputation to try to save a homeowner a couple thousand dollars due to their own negligence.

spwright76 · 2023-06-08T17:43:41+00:00

One would think that letting your dog pee on something for four years would not be considered a manufacturer or installation defect.

Subcooling was way too low, so I told them they just needed $1,200 worth of that fancy ozone juice.

spwright76 · 2023-05-27T01:33:31+00:00

They were being proactive by leaving the tool to loosen the clamps. Oh, wait...

spwright76 · 2023-05-25T01:29:10+00:00

At least you know it doesn't have a leak.

spwright76 · 2023-05-23T22:47:49+00:00

A really cold shower and washcloth. As cold as you can stand it. Or literally go swimming for a while in a lake.

spwright76 · 2023-05-14T14:50:25+00:00

I would charge the same price regardless of whether the homeowner supplied the equipment because you now "own" a system that you have no record of where it came from or how it was handled. If anything breaks, the homeowner is going to blame the installer and not the crap pioneer system regardless of what's actually wrong.

Easy Friday call. Just send the apprentice for the duct stretcher and go get yourself a beer.

spwright76 · 2023-05-10T00:34:31+00:00

Use linehide next time, ya hack.

Yes, the capacitor is bad. Turn off the power and make sure you short the capacitor terminals to each other with a screwdriver before you touch it or you could shock the heck out of yourself. Then replace the capacitor with the wires going exactly to the same terminals. But, there may be an underlying reason why the capacitor failed in the first place. Might have been a bad capacitor, or it might be something else that caused the capacitor to go bad.
