    I was a plumber for 11 years, worked commercial and industrial plumbing on a military installation where they trained recruits to permanent party soldiers. Loved the job and the people I worked with but had to quit that profession because I contracted hepatitis B and C. There is all kinds of bad bugs in human shit. That was many years ago. I had all kinds of test and even liver biopsy and all expenses came out of my pocket. At the time my 5 year old son and wife had to be tested along with my youngest that was still in the womb. Government in a crappy way said there’s no proof I contacted it thru work. In other words I got the shitty end of the stick.

Watched one guy hit one 4 times in different spots trying to back up to it with the rails tilted and about a foot off the ground. 4 separate holes on one side because he was at a angle. He got it right when I asked him if he needed me to back the truck up. I mean it's not that hard to back a truck up to one of those dumpsters.

    knowing when to bill a client directly or know they are under a land lord service so after billing them at a prorated rate that smaller fund is taken to other services under that same land lord and exchanged for its corrected capital gains value. IE: guy pays $2800/month to rent a shop space 80% of that is land taxes, so if a quote goes out for $250 on a $1800 job, their are other services in place to sell material at that end job rate tho priced down to the billing quote of licensing... less money exchanged is less tax one has to pay, more things in the way in civil structuring that lure confusion. $800/hr in Alberta is normal, just billing 40/hr... getting around to use it right is to complicated for a first year... bill more and don't get the job... not hard to get $1200/hr off of billing $40/hr. but a $50 7kw generator makes 10kw 280 volt at 75hz, 250amp mobile set up, scrap bins sorting knowing what's what and is not. anything better then a 3rd world set up is a good rig.

    I used love drivers like that.. if everyone was careful, there'd be less work. - I'd have cared less if they used it to store rhino-poo - we all wipe our butts - and that's gettin close to poo too... we used get all the "our crap-pipes collapsed & nobody wants to fix it!!" jobs as we cared less about stanky work - and the bills were similar too. Poo upps the price. :-)
