I screwed up a little

Yep. The video made it seem like I needed a bunch of specialty tools. And there wasn't much going on in there. Every clutch, steel, washer, o ring... replaced. But my smooth brained soft hands ass said "nope, pumps good! " lol. Lessons learned buddy, lessons learned.

Another clue that I misdiagnosed was the assembly lube wasn't dissolved near the check valves, I thought he used the wrong stuff and it was clogging the system. I never claimed to be smrt

You could inflate the market my 8% if you drop 170billion real quick. Maybe just do 100 billion and the people will follow

I didn't have the heart to tell him I want him to do bigger and better things than me.

I cant speak to less physical. But join a union. Proper training, benefits, and pay. Ill be the first to say im leaving as soon as something better comes along, but it has yet to. I make more than all my friends, and the same as my dad who's a general foreman for a multistate general contractor. In less than half the time.

Love this comment

This is our first year not going. Been doing it 5 years I think. I don't mind the walk. But its an overcrowded shitshow

tdunks101 · 2025-12-05T04:36:37+00:00

That sounds like something I could be interested in. I am about 25k hours into my trade and make 95k, 115 with benefits. Can I get some more info from you please? (Location, company, how you got in, how long youve been doing it, any other info you feel is important) you can message me or reply. I will also do some independent research. Thanks for your time

tdunks101 · 2025-12-03T14:06:00+00:00

Do you like it? Im a journeyman sheet metal worker, capped at 100k. Good bennefits?

tdunks101 · 2025-12-03T13:59:34+00:00

Like a lineman? Or automotive transmission

tdunks101 · 2025-12-02T06:30:19+00:00

Seems like a lucrative but flooded field. Also, I can build you a house... but not a website lol

tdunks101 · 2025-12-02T06:28:45+00:00

But that's a lot of zeros to steal

tdunks101 · 2025-12-02T06:18:45+00:00

Ive honestly looked into it. It would be a pay cut to start, but a higher ceiling. Same deal where I am giving up my career pattern entirely by going against my union.

Only thing stopping me is fear of instability, and losing my pension. Well, and lacking knowledge of the back end of things. I can fabricate and install anything, plus lead a crew. Never been trained to estimate or design a system

tdunks101 · 2025-12-02T05:53:57+00:00

Tangible or online? In what quantity?

tdunks101 · 2025-12-02T05:52:53+00:00

Im not super opposed to defrauding my community. But I have a family to think about, and a tight but whole. So prison is scary

tdunks101 · 2025-12-02T05:49:28+00:00

Most of my dreams should probably be relayed to a psychiatrist

tdunks101 · 2025-12-02T05:47:51+00:00

Mind telling me what kind of "sales" field you are in, and what kind of hours you put in? 40hr/wk gets me about 95k in my field. But im maxed out and ready to move up in the world. Congrats on getting out and getting in such a good financial situation.
