A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

You're not lying. I regularly buy spools of cable, and I used to have to hunt for an employee clear across the store. They put it out on the walkie and 15 minutes later someone wanders back to the wire cage. I just go elsewhere now, it's cheaper everywhere else anyway.

Dude I've waited two hours for an employee before, only because I was on a job in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. I use a lot of 6awg and I've just taken to climbing the rack. Unfortunately, HD has the best prices on wire.
