New England B.S. Thread

It's the Denis joke. Your only 18 I thought

 

I had a little plumbing lesson myself today (water flooding the vanity lol) you ganna use sharkbites to temporarily cap the lines or do it the oldschool way and sweat them?

 

I will sweat them. I will also fix the trap. I just need to come up with a plan to leave the trap and clean out accessable and not look like ass

 

Whats on the other side of the wall?

 

The trap is in the ceiling and the clean out is in the wall for the hallway, but it faces the bathroom

 

I will prob cut it out and replace it and make it face the hall cause looking at it closer it lands inside the dimensions for the corner shower system

 

I figure the trap I can make a cabinet or something like that. It is the basement shower so not to worried about it. I have another cabinet/box for the kitchen plumbing already in the basement

 

Just got bitch slapped cuz I was talking about the idiot in office
Her "what did he do wrong"
Me "everything"
Her "what do you mean"
Me "made welfare a job, fuck up the country, sunk in debt"

 

The trap is in the ceiling but the shower is in a finished basement? Im lost, im not a plumber haha. I can tell you how i would make a nice looking access panel in the hallway wall to get to the cleanout though

 

Trap for an upstairs shower probably. I have one above my kitchen.

 

Ya thats what i thought initially, but he is demoing a shower in the basemet, maybe demoed the ceiling and there is a bathroom above also?

 

This is what our plumber told me today "all you have to know to be a plumber is hot is on the left, shit flows downhill, and payday is on friday"

 

Yes you win a cigar. The trap is for a tub up stairs and the cleanout is for the main on that side of the house

 

Yup exactly

 

BHLM tomorrow afternoon! Have the house for the weekend. Instead of having a crazy party I'm gonna mod my truck. Life level: zero

 

Find a new plumber...

That's ok, when Kendra is at her shower, I'm going to do the same thing, bake my headlights and fix my projectors.

 

My beautiful wife bought me a cushion with massage and heat for the truck. It's awesome. I'm going for a cruise. I wish i had one of these a long time ago.

 

What is it? That sounds awesome! I could use one of those for my hour + long commutes

 

Comfort products inc. Relaxzen 6 motor massage cushion w/ heat. Model 60-2926. She said it was $39 on Amazon. I'm old.....lol. Next, a hot tub

 

Or maybe i should just find a new job, i finally got the call i have been waiting for, time for me to make some big decisions.

Pros of new job:

50% pay increase as a starting pay over what i make now
All very high end work for big money customers
I will learn alot, the guy hiring me is very skilled in wood working among other trades
It will be all 1099 so no taxes taken out of my weekly paycheck

Cons of new job:

No benifits anymore, i have health, dental, 401k plus the usual disability and workmans comp
No more work van, the tacoma will be my full time work truck
No more slacking off at work (ie. no checking tacomaworld during work hours)
Self employment will make it harder for me to get a mortgage
Possibility that work may not be as steady
I will have to get better contractors insurance and my own health insurance

What do you guys think, i am leaning towards taking the job, i really dont want to be stuck with the company i work for now for the rest of my life
