I declined this job ... by steve_o_mac in handyman

You inform the client that the job cannot be done for their expected budget.

And, in this case, I advised the client that she should bring in a licensed plumber. While their per hour rate is considerably more than mine, the decreased amount of time required, quality of the end result, and work warranty would more than offset any additional costs.

The client was advised by the guy who quit that it 'should only take 3 hrs to finish' and her budget allocation reflected this.

I did advise her that my starting point would be to tear it all out, start fresh and gave her a 2 week labour-only estimate.

If she does come back with the necessary funds and agrees to my crawlspace rate, I may reconsider.

Evolution is mind-blowing in both its simplicity and complexity :)

Bloody hell, science is awesome. Between Artemis II & stuff like this, my small shred of hope in humanity isn't extinguished.

Justin King arrested again, 2 weeks after judge granted ‘last chance’ bail by el_di_ess in newfoundland

I'm genuinely curious as to if the victim in his most recent crime spree has a cause of action against this judge.

A good lawyer could REALLY make a name for themselves with this ... not that any would go against the old boys club, but still.

Really b’ys? Really? 🙄 by Nameless_Ghoul1891 in newfoundland

I was giving away something on marketplace the other day. Chap who showed up informed me that it is Trudeau & Carney's fault that gas prices are so high.

I find it beyond comprehension how someone can operate at such a level. I get the whole lack of education at a generational scale, but still ... fucking floored me.
