    I prefer having a kill switch so it's not just the solenoid switch. This can't get turned on accidentally

    New datacenters are fun! Well as long as they are properly planned. :) Nice clean work and environment.

    Just think, all that power you are bringing in today... will be tomorrow's Porn, Bitcoin and Spyware. :)

    This one is a shit show sadly. Can't wait to be done and go back to my original site.

    There's too many guys here that are 'in charge'
    It's phase 3 of the place and everyone is trying to say how it should be done when only one guy actually knows what the client wants.

    Fucking put one thing together then take it apart and do it again.

    Just yesterday was a problem because myself and another guy were told to tie in a bunch of breakers that feed cooling units. Someone labeled the breakers for us and now no one will accept the blame of who did because whoever did they labeled the wrong ones.

    So wires are now short and they need to order more wire to replace.

    Lol "when properly planned" disclaimer in my statement really paid off.

    Oh, No, lol I know what it's like on those types of jobs...
    4hrs debate,
    1 hr work,
    Debate 4 hrs that 1hr work was not what we needed to do,
    1 hr debate on who's fault it is,
    Everyone stands in a circle and points to the right.
    What everyone thought was gonna be a showpiece conduit and cable tray art show, has turned into a spaghetti factory.

    Lol - Data Centers , Pot Farms and Small restaurant chains are all great aggravating money makers.

    Quote just above cost for those jobs... no profit in the Job! But lotsa change orders at PREMIUM rates.

    Best way to describe those types of jobs for a contractor is;

    Contracts may pay the bills but Change orders buys the Toys!
