Step 2: Do almost anything else
Easy as that
Eh, not so easy for some guys I know. They struggle with chronic pain and working the hours they do is hard on them. I can sympathize.
Yeah, me too, but I work 80 hour weeks around 3 months out of the year. I understand the chronic pain thing, too. I'm 6'3", so my back is falling apart already. But I've never done coke, meth, bars, perks, or any of the other shit that people try to sell me.
I feel for these guys, but they've got to get their shit together themselves. No one else can do it.
True true
I used to do a lot of drugs and booze. Haven't touched a drop of anything in 7 yrs. much better
BTW for those goys out there with HVAC systems always use these cheap filters. Cheapest you can find cause they don't restrict the air flow for your handler. Unless you got allergies
Otherwise all the techy filters just pay schlomo
I have allergies. What is the best filter for me?
I've beat the shit out of my body broken fingers, toes, arms, legs, cracked ribs, more stitches than I can remember, I've ridden ladders down telephone poles and walls, rode a few to the ground, I've 2 hernias repaired, and I've been shocked by power lines while 30 feet in the air. But you rub some dirt on it and carry on. Like a man. Haha
I've worked 6 days a week for years. I smoked pot for almost 15 years, it didn't help with the pain, it just took my mind off it.
@Bayernmensch#6240 is the air in your house a problem? If so maybe one of the hyperallegenic one but usually that's for people with abnormal allergies.
I have em too but not bad enough I need to filter the air
@Deleted User You're the man. Did owning more than 1 property turn you into a jack of all trades?
Haha no I got my start doing trim carpentry on small scale remodels working for a good contractor
Did it for years then got a (((media))) job which looked better to banks
Made some smart purchases that cash flowed very well early on
Oh nice, what is that you do now? If I can support a brother I will.
How much do finish carpenters make? I get that it's based upon location. As a crate technician in LA I make $20/hr...
Carpenters are the one of lowest paid trades unfortunately. But if you're the contractor you have no limit. Or you could get on with a big company and do well.
Like the electricians said the end goal is to become the contractor.
Yeah I thinking of getting my contractors license
I got mine but hardly use it.
@RevStench Now I'm a director for a yuuuge media company. Total fuckin pox all day long
Poz*
Trim carpenters/artisans can make decent money but yeah they don't make as much as elec, plumbers, etc unless your doing work like @RevStench
Your type of restorations are priceeeey .....
For sure, but it's either me or you can call this guy
Hahaha no joke
That's plywood holding the sash together haha
@Pendragon#1229 If you can run small jobs as a contractor and hire subs and do all the carpentry yourself you can make more than just running trim but it's more headaches. I did that for a few years
@Pendragon#1229 You in LA? I built sets for a few years too a looong time ago. That pays decent
Oh cool @Deleted User I bet that was a lot of fun and headache. Got any set you can brag about?
It's a shame carpenters get stiffed on moneybecause there are so many neat things to do.
@RevStench It was NY in the 90s sonit was fun. The only noteworthy set was probably upright citizens brigade on comedy central
No way, I love UCB. Little Donnie is my favorite
I was just a helper basically. And I put together a ton of flats and stages. Then moved back down here and started working with that contractor
Haha little donny
I helped build the inner sanctum set
Their headquarters
