Made it to Merrill a couple hours ago. Picked up this locked up sled for free. Lady just got divorced, might work out a deal with her where I clean up her yard and take garbage to the landfill in return for some motorcycles.View attachment 460983

When do you graduate? Might be the solution to a couple of desires.

The Graduate 1967 Movie
Benjamin Braddock (Dustin Hoffman) has just finished college and, back at his parents' house, he's trying to avoid the one question everyone keeps asking: What does he want to do with his life? An unexpected diversion crops up when he is seduced by Mrs. Robinson (Anne Bancroft),

Then what are your plans?

 

[LAWN BOY]

Then what are your plans?

Move in with my grandparents permanently. Continue working for the ranch for a while. Probably get a better paying job in a couple years.

 

[LAWN BOY]

Picked up this Ryan weed whacker for $45 off marketplace:

Then I picked up these lawn boys for $40. White top needs recoil fixed at a minimum but does turn over, I will keep it. Oldest one is seized, I'm trying to unseize it, I will keep it. The newest one has no spark, I am not keeping it.

When I started mowing the lawn I had a lawn boy like those, used the mid bar to push with cause I wasn't that tall back then.

 

[LAWN BOY]

Had fun mudding bikes and my ATV with my friends today.

Electrician is one of the highest paid skilled trades, and you can earn while you learn with an apprenticeship… Just sayin

I know, my dad was one for several years, he didn't like it. He would bring home all the scrap for me to cash in, I would strip the wire. To be honest electrical is something I despise. I've been taught about it by my dad and occasionally machinery manuals and the Internet but I just can't seem to grasp the concept, it confuses me. I always hate when I get basket case projects with lots of wiring. I do have to learn it better. Don't think I'd be happy having it as a job though personally.

I was a electrican for my career. Union apprenticeship paid to work and schooling. You need to study and then it will be much easier to understand electrical work. Get a trade or become very adept at junking but be sure to apply yourself.
Everything is hard until you gain knowledge then it is much easier. If you have a trade or skill, you can sell your work and skill.
If you always remain a junker you will always depend on other people throwing away their stuff.

Welp plumber it is… the concept is pretty easy there… the shǐt is suppose to follow gravity when you flush. If it doesn’t there’s a problem.
