I think I like electrical work much better. Small holes you can drill
almost anywhere and does not need to go in a straight line. And
electric lines do not freeze...

To judge how trades are structured, hang out at a distributor outlet
as the journeymen pick up their supplies. The plumbers always look
grungy, carpenters have tears in their faded jeans, other trades are
somewhat disheveled. But the electricians show up in near new trucks,
clean clothes and haircuts. Must be a lesson there.

Don't forget to reverse the washing machine hoses.

Client: "That sure is a ****ty job!"

Plumber: "Yeah. It all turns to green dollars on Friday."

No need. With front loader just flip top to bottom. For top loader rotate
front to back. Think outta the box Oren :-)

If you have Delta single-knob control, simply pull the knob off and rotate it
180 degrees and put it back on. DAMHIKT.
