Honest question. Are you saying that basically some grunt wires up top and then the master electrician wires up the circuit board or something?


That’s exactly how my guy does it.


Or if you are looking to save money you can run all the wires yourself and have a licensed electrician terminate them for you.

There's lots of doctor's jobs I wouldn't want. Gastroenterologist for the ick factor and pediatric oncology for the emotional toll.

Yea, and to act like they really care for them when they don’t and tell you Cobra insurance is gonna cost them like $2,200/month.

HR is a pretty useless job most of the time anyway. It's basically a made up DEI job for medicre white women that don't want to work hard.

When I was at LSU, half of the students who chose animal science degrees to later become vets did so because they liked animals, nothing more. My friend who became a vet said they dropped like flies when they figured out what a vet actually does.

This. I hate killing most things except roaches and spiders. I love animals too much.



this is why vets are multi millionaires. People take their animals health more serious than they do their own health and will pay whatever it cost.

I had a terrific job where company employees worked for me on a dotted line basis. They did what I told them but I did not have to handle PR issues nor evaluations. I provided input to their performance/results. Loved it.
