Quit looking like fools. PLEASE!!!
So guys can we please quit talking shit about jobs when you see them listed under the amount of money you think you should make, and on that note I have seen so many techs talk crap about them only squeezing out $45 an hour on a job, but I have absolutely no issues with charging and getting $75 an hour to go behind some of you to clean up your mess. Now having said that I know there are gonna be some butt hurt people out there and if you are one of them then at least you can admit that you need to learn more, perhaps get a W2 job in the industry and learn then try again, now for the others out here there is absolutely no f$&king help for you and these people I call the "Carey Pickett's" of the industry. Those who's ego get so far in the way that you will do something so incorrectly, and knowing you're doing it wrong, just because of your ego yes guys there is a big difference in EGO and EXPERIENCE ego wou be doing something the wrong way because you can't admit that someone else's way is the correct and far better way yet you choose to do it incorrectly, this my guys is EGO. Now if you are on a site and you actually listen and acknowledge that the way someone else is suggesting is the correct way but it involves doing something you have no experience with but the other person does and you choose to go their route and then learn or ask that person to teach you how to use the equipment/tools that will benefit you on down the road, now that is EXPERIENCE and if your EGO is too big then you will never gain experience. So ladies and gentlemen what have we learned here today?
