If your going to call someone out for being a dumbass don't be a dumbass while doing it.
I was in my dying broke hometown a few months ago driving around some old neighborhoods. As poor as those people are, they still manage to scrounge enough money together to buy a standby genny. I can see why people that install them can make a killing. Everyone wants one.

makes the homeowner much more damaging than the average farmer/ag worker is that the average homeowner has minimal knowledge of what they are spraying


Also, if the homeowner over-applies by 20% its for "good measure".

If a Farmer over-applies by 20%, its bad business and may be the difference in making a profit that year or breaking even.

But I heard Mike Rowe talking about how they are the best way to make $100k a year. Does it make a difference that Mike has never had earn a living by being in the trades and is nothing more than a tv host with a deep voice?

/sarcasm

Mike is a charlatan for Big construction who wants as many bodies in the trades as possible so they don't have to pay what they are currently paying. Which, while the highest in 40 years, is still not great.

There are going to be a lot of disappointed 30/yo's in the near future wondering why they are breaking down their body for $55k a year. Going to be the 80's all over again

I fucing warning yall. People on here gloating a jeering that Spirit went belly up.

Just like if California were to burn up or NOLA to go underwater. The people that make those places terrible aren't going down too. They will just spread and infect other areas.

Now they all have e-bikes and crossbows and ride them off trail to get to places once only the people willing to put in work could go.



There was a thread started on the OB a couple years ago by a retired leo that claimed they were a nusance and shouldn't be allowed on anything but motorized roads and trails. The OP "dropped a dime" on an ebiker, iirc. He was thoroughly made fun of and told mind his own business and that ebikes were a great tool and no big deal.

Might try to find and bump that thread to see if feelings are still the same.
There's a niche part of youtube that is women in third-world countries slaughtering chickens. Some fully clothed and some risque. Its quite the rabbit hole.

Just get you or someone up there and look around. Water getting behind gutter happens a lot. But the water still needs to make it to the wall.


I've seen where an A/C vent is pointed directly at a wall and cools the sheetrock well below outside dewpoint and will cause moisture problems.

Sams does not sell Top Tier gasoline though. Costco does.

Yet another reason Costco is better.

You should be able to weigh the bottle and see how much was removed. Then do as Craw said and look at display for trouble codes.

costcos constant of scanning the membership card



It speaks volumes that Costco has to have a constant vigil to keep unvetted people out and Sams doesn't have that problem. No one wants to sneak into a friggin Sams :lol:

Sam’s scan and go is so much more efficient.




If sams were good enough to be packed like Costco, you wouldn't save time. You only save time because Sams is empty from being subpar and people with any sense know it.

Costco hasn't implemented their version of scanNgo because they've shown that from in to out the door, it doesn't save their shoppers time.

Why would one head cool and not the other



My guess is something in the controls/wiring. If you had a leak, the other would also not work or not work well. Unfortunately adding 410 guaranteed someone with a scale needs to come out.

To save face, tell them your dummy brother in law added the extra refrigerant . :cheers:
