Depends. If he came up through a trade and actually knows his chit, then yes. If he is a total fukktard that has zero clue how plans and books translate to reality, then no.

I only work commercial/industrial. Never residential. That's where all the real degenerate scumbags are. But even if I did work that sector I would turn them down. Happily married crew.

Can you and the boys stop getting the pipes so dirty with all the welding slag and oil? It takes me days to flush all that crap out so I can treat it for cold/hot system corrosion protection. My customers keep asking about high iron levels, its annoying to explain, srs.

A few years ago when that was all I made my (now) wife and I lived within our means. Make a lot more now and still live within our means. It's not rocket surgery bro.

Typical day is pretty gravy. Show up at 6:45, eat breakfast, leave shop around 7:15. Knock out a job or two, back to shop from 9-9:30ish for break. Go knock out another couple jobs, take lunch from 11-12ish, back at it til about 2:30 then head back to the shop to fill out paperwork and whatnot, out the door at 3:15.

Depends on the day TBH. Some days are just changing filters or cleaning coils. Other days I'm ripping apart heat exchangers, troubleshooting systems, fabbing pipe/components, swapping out valves/regulators/etc. The preventative maintenance stuff can get repetitive, but it's especially necessary with as many older systems as we have.
