I've been working in construction for the past 11 years at this point with a few years before that in a part time role. I'm more than happy to lend whatever knowledge or insights I may have about work, life, or whatever.

I will be checking in sporadically to see if there are questions.

EDITED WELL AFTER QUESTIONS STOPPED: I'm still active-ish on Lemmy, so if you happen to find this and have a question, I will likely still get back to you.

There are a lot of predatory types out there who are all too willing to go way above and beyond anything that's needed to pad the bill. It's really frustrating to hear stories like that from all of the various specialists. Whether its mechanics, handyfolk, or IT repairs.. there are way too many who will happily overcharge for a simple fix because they can see a chance to get paid.
