I’m just curious, who’s ass we’re referring to?

We might as well bust this whole thing wide open if that’s what you want!
You’re so tough!
Give me a pass? Lol!

You.
Are.
Nothing.
i gave you a chance to redeem yourself…to reverse course. But you didn’t. You must be so much fun to work with.

Ok, scenario-
It’s a late Friday night and you’re at the bar, you’ve got a good buzz and a full belly of nachos and boneless chicken wings(?).
-they call “last call”, you’re are all horned up and ready to go- you have two options:

1- a 450 pound blonde who is 5’1” she is a maybe 3/10 with bad acne, her breath smells like liver worst, coffee, and cigarettes, she is a sloppy drunk and all you’ll have to do is to take her for a Big Mac, large fires and a shake before you bring her home, to get ALL up in her good stuff..

Or

2- 200 pounder, red head with freckles, and razor burn(down there), she is 5’5” has a lazy eye, she is a 6/10, although she is a “flatso”(a fat chick with no boobs), she smells a bit mushroomy, but can be yours if you pay for her and her friends bar tab- it’s $250 and it’s on..

Who do you take home?

Everyone here is a plumber but they are also a consumer.

So everyone has a valid opinion.

Threads can’t be posted that exclude members from participating if they choose, IMO.
That said, I don’t make the rules or enforce them.

I hope everyone has a safe and profitable Monday.

See ya kids later, I have to go run some service. ✌

Hmmm. Just looking at a picture, eh?

Are you a shop owner? No! I am! Are you a Master? No! I Am!

YOU'RE
My post wasn’t directed to apprentices, was it!!??

But you want to chime in. My post said “fellow shop owners”!

It’s NOT just “looking at a picture.”

You're getting my time, my skill, my expertise.

And for that-You’re going to pay me.
Shop time is shop time. Skill is skill.

Nothing is for free when it comes to my business .

My area is larger, the town is full of money and a major university. These people don’t care, their time is precious to them and the less you’re tying up their time while contributing to remedying an issue —so far it’s been good!
I don’t look at ANYTHING for free. Whether by picture, video or in person, doesn’t matter.

So for right now, stick to being an apprentice and fetching coffee!

My post was for owners and plumbing contractors.
When you were lost all the things that you are!- you forgot to mention a couple. A few others here have kinda filled in those blanks though

Not too worried about you or the masses.
You’re a joke. I never claim to be a know it all. I am extremely humble and learn as much as I can from everyone.

I can spot blow hards like you about a mile away. You guys talk a good game but there’s something not quite right, usually it’s you hiding your insecurities.

I

Again, this is for limited and certain items only. I will also take it off final bill in some cases if we are hired. I have offered this to 12 customers who had cases I thought that they could benefit from this service, and all 12 accepted. The total time I had wrapped up in each ranged between 1/4-1/2 hour. My hourly is $160. So not too bad. I made about $1,200 extra bucks for around 3 hours work and did it from my desk at the shop. I spent around 15-20 min total time invested in each.

Thanks for your reply.
Here's what I don't understand. From this paragraph, it sounds like you've tried this and it works for you so what's your reasoning behind asking strangers what their thoughts are?
