Re: My Big Fat Renovation
Not good for me, but the number of postings is slightly increasing.
Jena starts her new job next Monday (15th) and she got a 12% pay increase over her last job, which already paid really well, and this one has an insurance plan too.
I looked down the pipe and it looked clean. When the dryer is running, it also pushes the vent cover fully open so I don't think there's any fuzzball issues.
Geoff, I don't want to do this crap for a living, same with working on cars. I really enjoy doing it for myself, by myself, but I would never want to do it for someone else. Plus, it seems most of the people out of work in this area are in construction.
What blows, is that I can literally do whatever the hell I want. I wanted to build and paint my truck, and I did it, in less time than it takes most people to just get their body back from the shop. I wanted to renovate my house, so I just started doing it. There's isn't much of anything I can't do without some research and time. The biggest problem is, you have to know somebody to get a job, or be the best, and have done it for XX number of years, and the only thing I can "compete with" for that is Land development/site design, but I haven't found anyone hiring for that in well over a year, at least not in this area. My neighbor is the VP of a design build company and he can't even "hook me up." At least not yet...
