If u don't have basic trade/construction skills, you are pathetic (srs)

[getbig_ttt]

It's sad to see how people now days can't pick up a few tools and change a light fixture or a faucet. Of course I'm not taking about very big jobs (foundations) or very specific work such as changing an electric breaker panel...

Imagine having to call this guy to your house to do work that you are too pathetic to do. All this while your wife is at home and you're at work:
BRB wife/gf thinks you're lame
BRB she gives ''bonus'' to the handsome man

Pipe fitter checking in with experience in Electrical field, I know your thoughts OP, some jobs I see, I'm like da fuq u call me for? U can't turn a wrench a few times?

[PuzzledMidget]

The basic DIY stuff is so easy and you can google anything these days so there is no excuse

[TreFo]

Misc is packed with retarded logic and flawed premises.



Stop trying to make urself feel better about working a chitty trade job to strangers over the internet.

What's a wrench?

How do you use a hammer?

[JKLOL]

I'm not very skilled, but I know how to use The Google and can probably figure it out.
Not having tools around can be an issue sometimes too.

[bigdogfarmhand]

People can't fix or do any thing. On a working farm you have to fix it or money can't be made.

Weld it
Tape it
Plug it
Tie it
Drag it

What ever it takes

Yes google is your friend.

Try in buy some quality tools here and there, you end up with a solid tool box and they last for ever.

Ya man! I got a lot of respect for farmers, specially the ones with low income that figure it out.

The concept of using parts of something else is cool as fuk.

Then we can just google it when we have the problem. What you're saying then is that we're pathetic because we've never had these problems come up.

Such chitty logic ITT

[Adds420]

100% agree. I had to go to my friends house to help him install a new toilet. First off, this is simple enough. Second, he asked me since we shut the water off how are we going to empty the tank. Guy literally was going to get a bucket and empty it like that...

BRB good luck surviving a zombie crisis. srs

You're a pathetic incapable person

[Celsus]

Stop judging people and do something else.

[aristopF]

Idk how the fukk people survive if they can't do simple maintenance work in their household. My dad taught me how to fix chit when I was 8.

I feel the same way about ppl that take their cars to the shop for a simple thing like changing the lights or the wiper blades. uwotm9-1

Dude, google has it's limits. You need to have common sense, it wont have the example of every situation out there.

BRB google ''how to make money'' or ''how to perform medical procedure'' lol good luck you moron.

[rotatoo]

lulz at poor people spending their free time doing manual labour


*****s gotta step up yo game, get another paperroute or something

[E-Tank]

dat feel when youre the only person that knows how to use a simple tool like a drill out of your group of friends.

brb "you built a cage for your lizard?!? Whatre you some kind of master carpenter?!?"

[Robmnrd]

I wouldn't say it's 'pathetic', but I do feel there is more value to learning these types of skills than those who don't have them will admit to themselves. Monetary value (save on labor costs) should be enough for most people to learn the skills. There's also a lot of satisfaction to be had in building/fixing things when needed.

As others have said in here Google is your friend, and nowadays with the resources at your disposal people really should learn these sorts of things.




It's spelled 'fixture', OP.

[flairon]

Every man should be able to do at least basic maint. around the house. Light fixtures, light plumbing, even wallboard repair. A man should also be able to do basic car maintenance. If you don't have the room, thats one thing, but if you don't know how to change your oil or a tire, you need to turn in your dude card.

[Nara62629]

light fixers should be able to fix themselves...

Two types of farmers. Broke ones and rich ones. Both of them try to fix it in there own.

I know guys that can fix or make anything.

[PuzzledMidget]

it does have its limits but still for basic household jobs/fixes its sufficient.

BRB, starting job at $40/hr and not having to pay bs 4 yr college loan with worthless liberal arts degree.

Doing my training for trade now and when qualified after 2yrs will be making more than friends who dont work a trade, where I live there are no financial jobs/large income jobs people either work in tourism (crap wages) or are teachers (not bad for my area) or service.

That's awesome man, I wish I could fix or make everything.

[Krunk Fu]

So you're saying that since I have a good job, my wife is going to fuk some slob with a fat chew in his mouth? That's basically the point of this thread? Construction workers fuk housewives ITT..

Riveting tale OP.

Girls love handsome guys. If you're too lame to perform basic renovation work in your house, she most likely will (srs)

Dude, I'm not saying she will cheat on you because you aren't a construction worker, but because you need to call other real man like a beta boy to do some manly work.

Go back to your office!
