When you rent a car and are asked to upgrade, the rental agents set their own price and will get you to pay however much they think they can get out of you. Beware.

= if you see cracks in your drywall... you more than likely have structural issues that can cost as much as $100k to fix
= if you see water spots on your ceiling, and it's not from a leaky pipe, there is a major problem. Above the ceiling drywall is a vapor barrier. Above that is a minimum of 10" insulation. Above that is air space and finally your roof sheathing with the tar paper + shingles as a finish. For water to get through ALL of those porous materials (think how much water can build up in fiberglas insulation) AND break through your vapor barrier is insane. If you see spots on your ceiling... be worried.
= when renovating... do me a personal favor and use MINERAL WOOL (Roxul is the brand name) for insulation and NOT THAT PINK GARBAGE. It is fire proof and 100% repels moisture. Meaning: if water enters your walls (from the outside) it will naturally shed back outside as it can't stay on the insulation or cross the vapor barrier. The fire proof aspect of it is a no brainer... pink fiberglass burns like gasoline haha. ....oh and it costs the same.
= if you find sound to be an issue in your home i.e. "paper thin walls" you may want to look into an insulation product called Roxul Safe n Sound. Put this insulation in your wall and it will DEAD sound and make a world of difference for very little cost (aside from re- dry walling). Not to mention it stops the spread of fire.

= if you have any questions or concerns about your house or any building just ask. I know more than Mike Holmes.

You sound like you know your trade really well. I'd trust you for a job on my home.

I work for an electric company & they are secretly raping you on you bills...
You're paying more & more for the same service every year
The CEO is getting rich off YOUR dime...
I can't even do anything about it...
My electric bill used to average $67 when I 1st started here (8 yrs ago)
NOW it averages $110 for th SAME amount of usage...
Yelling @ someone to get your lights back (b/c YOU neglected to pay your bill) will NOT get your lights back on any quicker
Being nice MAY get you to the top of the list (depending on my mood)

For all of you working in any customer facing jobs:
I always tried to be nice to any one I deal with, but what's considered nice?
I just mean - I'm polite, but I'm not a big talker. Are there that many bs out there that makes all the polite ones look that much better?

Not saying to kiss @##...

They're trying to get your issue resolved...

Not all Safeways are 24/7 and I understand you didn't know that BUT PLEASE after I say that we are closed, DO NOT BEG ME to come in the store to buy 1 item, use the bathroom or use the ATM. Unless you can guarantee that you will personally get me a new job and not rob me that door will not OPEN.



If you come into the store when it first opens (5am), Do not pay with a $100 bill if you just bought $20 worth of groceries. We just opened and the register doesn't have enough cash.



WE DON'T KNOW WHERE THE SAFE IS OR THE COMBINATION!!!

Don't be afraid to ask me where something is. More than likely, I will walk you to it and probably tell you which one is better.



Fresh Bread usually comes in on Tuesdays and Thursday around 6am-9am



If you want to come pass me, Just say excuse me and I'll glad step back or around. Sometimes I do not notice you. (I've been hit by an old lady with a cart before. She tried to squeeze thru a little space

)



Please check the dates on your milk. The Afternoon and Evening Clerks are super lazy and will just throw anything up



If you pick something up and change your mind, please try to put back as close to where you found it. (I've found a bag of fresh potatoes in the freeze more than once)



If you see a price tag up on the shelf and the register rings up differently, tell the cashier the tag said different, go get said tag, show him and he HAS to ring it up at that price.



The freezers are extra cold, don't make me search for your favorite ice cream in the back when it isn't on the shelf.



If its not on the shelf, more than likely its not in the back but it might be on the sky shelf.



No the soda machine doesn't work, buyer beware.



Sales usually last a week. Starting Wednesday and end the following Tuesday.



If something you want in the store isn't there, go to Customer Service, ask can they order said item...AND WE WILL ACTUALLY TRY TO!



Stop stealing. You think it doesn't hurt us but it does. They cut back our hours when it we really start losing profits and after while they will close the store.

lucky for you, your store ain't 24/7. which one you work at?

they put me on night crew too and manager expected me to get 2 1/2 aisles done and check. from 12am - 2am a lot of people come in buying random crap and liquor and the mad rush at 1:55. sucks even worse since i had to come up and for every single customer til someone came in at 4am. needless to say, i was off it after a month

and if you don't know where the safe is. it's at the booth.

and i agree with you that all they need to say is "excuse me" and i'll move out the way. i got people reaching over and around me and all they really need is to say two words. what's even worse is when i'm stacking something and they grab it right out of my hands acting like my hands are part of the shelf.

LOL even tho you just told me where the safe is I'm still lying.
I work in this one in DC on Georgia Ave. (Bout 2-3 of them on there)

At my old job DELTA DENTAL i had access to all of the Screen Actors Guild, as well as Lockheed Martins members Social Security numbers and their dental history....

Ticket writer at a Sportsbook in Las Vegas:

- If you place a bet, you can always ask for a drink ticket no matter how much/little you bet. The bigger your bet the more drink tickets you can ask for.
- The sportsbooks do NOT know any inside info on games, We pretty much hoped for 50% action on both sides so we can walk away with the juice.
- On a nightly basis I would have to deposit $250,000 to $500,000 cash when we close.
- A sportsbook job pays real good for the job description
- Most people that bet horses... LOSE.
- Never cash out for more than $8,000 at one time, otherwise they'll have to tax you off top.

DaCitySlanga- You are so correct about everything..... I am a dc police officer and everytime I arrest a juvenile the judge lets them off the hook which makes me to believe that this city need to be republican so all the SCUM learn their lesson!


Police Officers do not have quotas when it comes to issuing tickets...
If you have something hanging from your rear view mirror take it off because that is probabel cause to stop you for "obstructed view"... this is how I get drug lock ups!

viral marketing, or marketing in general, is tough.  it takes so much diligence and persistence to generate a few leads.

Didn't know there were any other surveyors on here

.  Where you located? I'm doing mostly geology/geotech. work at my current job, but I was on a survey crew all through school.  Loved it.

My favorite was when I was in school and we had surveying lab on campus.  People would be walking and not paying attention or on the phone, and literally almost fall backwards when they realized they were about to walk in front of the gun.  I guess they thought the laser was gonna cut their head off

   Yeah man its cool I'm in So Cal our office is in Huntington Beach, we have alot of fun while taking care of business. When people ask what we're doing. Say we have some utility locating (the colored paint in the street as someone previosly noted) in a residential area, we always get "hey what are you doing?"  We usually say "oh you didn't hear...this is where the new freeway off/on ramp is going. Construction starts in a month!"

Either that or if they ask if they can walk in front of the gun, if its a guy we tell them "yeah go for it...it'll just make you sterile." And for chicks well depending on how they look, they can walk in front whenever. They just get the sneaky view through the eyepiece.

- do you guys calibrate your own equipment? or does your company send your equipment off to be calibrated?
