    "How could I have done that Work Order better, faster, and smarter?" is a question I ask myself after every assignment; no matter how many times I have completed similar Work Orders in the past. There are always incremental improvements to be made, even after 15 years.
    But always remember...
    1. The tenant usually doesn't know what they are talking about, and,
    2. Tenants will *always* blame you.
    .
    Today I worked in five different rent houses, as an Independent Contractor. My net profit today was outstanding. Nice video Lex. I would have sold the PM a new ceiling fan and install.

    I bring the spring ballasts down level and keep one pivot pin loose and retracted. Seat one pin in the horse shoe and hover the sash over the second horseshoe and flick the pin home. Snap the sash in and tighten the pin. Your way works the same. Just two ways of skinning the same cat. Just have to mind that sash angle.

    you can usually stand the window up vertical enough in one "horseshoe" and allow the low side to move/pull up and make the other side close enough to fold back down and get it in.
    but that's harder on larger heavy windows :)

    I've watched most your videos. All awesome! I saw the video were you talked about jobs you disliked doing. Your not alone...lol so how about a video about vindictive tenants? I had one tenant who would leave his doggie bag ( full ) outside the office, on the ground, so I would pick it up. He would leave boxes, trash ect... so I started putting it, in front of his door. Guy got extremely pissed off. The property manager did take my side and told him to stop being lazy and to take care of his own dogs sh#t! Or he was going to start fining him! This worked. He did start cleaning up after himself. But I started finding dog crap in the main lobby and in the pool. So I secretly put up a security camera and caught him throwing it in the pool. They evicted him 2 days later... but its all good, I love being a maintenance supervisor!
