Which is also used on boats, so it's appropriate.

If I had a youngster today, I'd advise them to enter a union
apprenticeship program for either plumbing or electrical. No matter
where these society goes, it is going to want indoor plumbing and
electricity.

There's a chance the nuke plant near us might be expanded. If so,
it will mean several years of very high paying work for union
plumbers and electricians, among others. We're talking about
$100,000+ a year, family-supporting jobs for hardworking men and
women who have the skills to do the necessary critical work.


I had a plumber quote me $465 to change the trap under my mothers
sink. I think he is making more than they make at the nuke plant.
Of course, I didn't hire him, I did it myself.



Yeah, well, if you weren't such an a**hole, the plumber might have
charged $125.

The nuke plant plumbers are mostly steamfitters.
It takes a lot more education, training, and skill to become a
steamfitter than it does to become a college graduate.

Harry,
It hurts when you call me names. I wish you would stop.



I'm sure you are called a lot worse than asteriskhole, and on a regular
basis.


Look, if you don't cut it out, I am going to sic James III on you.


I'm sorry - I don't have a dog in this hunt, so you will just have to
handle on your own.
