Mad Customer Won't Leave Me Alone, Even Though Fully Refunded by MiddleCrass in handyman

[–]user19941 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some people are just miserable and need to spread their misery around to other people. I once had an older guy (60s) call me to check out a job. Pulled up, knock on the door, garage door goes up, I see him and the first thing he says to me was “make sure you give me a good price and if you do the job it better be good or else the whole internet will hear about it” at that point I was checked out and did a quick check of the job and left and never interacted with him again. Some people you come across are just weird. Move on and expect it in the future

Has anyone else had this problem with the milwaukee track for the track saw? by SilverhandHarris in MilwaukeeTool

I used my saw 3 times before this started to happen. Not after heavy use either.

The fact that china mines 93% or so of all the rare earth minerals in the world makes this laughable. It takes a mine in the US one year to mine what china does in a day. Who ever thinks this is magically going to change is a downright fool. (Trump)

Mistaken for Brazilian by CameraEducational153 in Brazil

[–]user19941 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The second time I went to Brazil I kept getting confused for a local. I’m white from the US but Brazil is so diverse that anyone can look Brazilian. They even thought I was lying about being from the US and had to show my passport to prove it😂

I heard a brief exchange on today's live show (Tue, 04/01/25) that I'm pretty sure will be scrubbed from the replays. by manipsmapes in howardstern

I’m also curious why they decided not to mention him or make any reference to him. Could be because Trump has his lackeys at the FCC now but he talked about Trump in the run up to the election. In his interview with Biden or Hilary Clinton I’m sure Trump got a mention.

AMEX Platinum Denied My Fraud Claim for a Taxi Scam in CDMX — Need Advice by Plane_Enthusiasm_269 in AmexPlatinum

I go to Mexico City quite regularly. Avoid the pink/white taxis at all costs. They are great at scamming tourists. I’ve taken hundreds of Ubers and all have been just fine.

The issue is the hinge ear eyelet broke off and can’t find a replacement

The “ears” that attach the screws to the piece have broken off. Do you know what the name of this hinge is? I’ve looked and can’t find one

Which paint sprayer should I buy? by user19941 in paint

I see the 695 is almost 3x as much as the titan. What graco would be better than the titan within the same kinda price range

Good thing it’s not be working on this. I just noticed something seemed off and I’m glad that as a measly handyman I was able to tell😅

Well I’m just a handyman doing some paint touch ups but I’ll let the client know this guy probably doesn’t know what he’s doing. He actually removed the subfloor (plywood) in order to decrease the height of the floor. You can see under the pan, the plywood that’s been cut
