You're right though, every professional operator I've seen was 300+lbs

😂 I need it too, I've worked my ass off, literally. I was so stoked on Sunday, I just broke 150lbs😆

Sheeeiiiit

You work outside? I thought you did custom stairwells and shit

I do historic preservation in general, I work inside and out. Even doing windows I'm in and out, painters caulk and paint windows shut, almost like they don't know windows are suppose to open.

Usually with windows I spend the first 4 hours of the day outside.

Hey if I have a question ... who do I @?

@John O -

@Deleted User did you get your problem taken care of

Greg's a master electrician, I'm just a late stages apprentice @Deleted User

Yeah a laid-off electrician LOL

Ooh, that sucks dude

You ever get paid by that guy?

Hell. No! Pissed off bad too

@Deleted User no I did not

@Deleted User what's your question? @Deleted User's free haha, sorry

@RevStench I’m at work …give me a few...

There are a bunch of pieces of shit out there, man. Even amongst whites.

Applying for an apprenticeship next Wednesday, wish me luck

Good luck 🍀

Are you employed? Union? @Deleted User

It's an IBEW sponsored program/apprenticeship

900 in-class hours and 8000 on-the-job hours over the course of 5 years (or less). Something like that.

I didn't realize the Union was so strong in Texas

I was just asking because a lot of guys go to technical schools and lose out on thousands of dollars

I actually got advice from a few guys on here in terms of searching for unions/apprenticeships

Yeah, I think it was me

And Greg

I hadn't seen your avatar in a while, thought you were new

Destroying technical schools is my personal life goal

Well I talked to a few guys via pm, just found this server today

Oh, nvm

Lots of tradesmen in IE

😋

I have a cousin and uncle in the ibew, they like it

I've talked to a fella at the local branch about this apprenticeship, had a great conversation. They seem like standup guys.

I'm applying next Wednesday but I don't think I'll be taking the aptitude test/interview till December, from what I was told.

My mother in law called me yesterday, she’s selling her house and moving (farther away thank god) but she had a ceiling fan in one of the bedrooms that worked intermittently and wobbled pretty bad, stopped by after work to take a look....
