US/Canada plugs/wiring can NOT withstand 1500~1800W 24/7. |
Other than it's a crappy connector to pull apart |
intermitantly, sure. But space heaters run 24/7! |
There’s too much 14ga around on 20a breakers omg |
(cause some IDIOT is always running a space heater WITH THE WINDOW OPEN BECAUSE THEY WANT FRESH AIR) |
You should have just taken the jail time |
Seriously should be a law, if you want fresh air go the $@#% OUTSIDE. |
The genepool would have thanked you |
@Rad 3 rooms in the house started flickering and they STILL SAW NO PROBLEM WITH THIS |
Oh wait I should not be advocating murder |
Bad rad |
Bad |
it wasn't until the burning smell that I ripped the space heater outta their room, turned the power off to half the house and demanded the landlord get an electrian over. |
Yeah my current office in Tx is uh.. poorly insulated. So there’s a few space heaters that show up in winter. The building cannot handle that. So it tends to fall to me to replace a fuse so people can keep working and I have to tell them repeatedly to not use a space heater |
@Melez Tell em they are only allowed space heaters on low. |
I replaced a wall outlet once, it sucked |
What I found.. was in that room, 3 rooms where powered off a light switch... |
by a wire that was just *resting* on the screw of the light switch |
it didn't get loose... it was apparently installed like that somehow? because the screw was still tight.. |
Yeah no. No space heaters. There’s only 4 circuits for the entire office of 25people |
Like where do you find these people to live with? @Black Moons |
lol |
the wire insulation was charred COMPLETELY all the way back to where it entered the light switch box. |
@Rad Oh it gets better. I caught her on top of the gas stove once. |
Our EV chargers can detect a broken neutral or earth and disconnect btw |
Every day we stray further from his light |
little 5' red headed women standing on the CENTER of the gas stove, leaving it forever dished |
What the shit |
why? to clean the top of the fridge, that she was far too short to EVER SEE |
I was soooo tempted to turn the burners on when she refused to GET DOWN. |
A step stool? |
Lol |
Have people never heard of step stools??? |
@Rad What do you think she used to get onto the stove. |
That’s also unhygienic |
(SHE WAS THAT SHORT) |
Oh for fucks sake |
thankfully she didn't break any gas lines in the stove (that I know of) cause I was too damn poor to even get it inspected |
Marry you a tall spouse who doesn’t need to climb on shit to clean |
but like.. couldn't even step on the EDGE of the stove, yaknow where it might support 150lbs |
no, in the dead center |
Glass? |
Common sense is not common |
@Rad Sheet metal. but she dented it badly |
it even had rolled edges, so if you did stand on the edge it prob would have supported 500lbs |
I’ve put my entire weight on a sheet metal roof with no underlayment. And didn’t damage it |
I say again.. she DENTED A GAS APPLIENCE WE NEEDED TO LIVE BADLY. |
How? Weight distribution |
Oh if you think that's bad |
In my last apartment |
I shared a breaker panel with two other apartments |
I don’t think I can rent ever again… |
I make slightly less than $24k a year before taxes |
Cause no matter how big the owner/manager of the apartment. Shit was always jacked |
Ugh |
I couldn't own a home if I wanted to |
Yeaa... I know the feeling. |
in like. 8th grade they gave us a pamphlet thingy with how much you make at a job, how much houses cost, how much mortgages cost, etc etc etc. |
Ah dang. Yeah I was there once |
it told me id be renting forever and never owning a new car. |
And any home I could own would be in such poor condition that it's not work it |
I own a 20 year old car. |
was pretty much right! only the situation has gotten 5x as hopeless as housing prices are now 5x more FOR THE SAME 1960's HOUSE |
Ugh |
My car was 20 years old when I bought it. |
Get a degree they said |
Makes lots of money they said |
What degree? |
My trucks tires could have gotten a drivers lisence they where so old |
Own a house a car and have a wife and kids |
Computer maintenance |
Ahhhh |
Yes I was young and dumb |
@Rad LOL as if we can afford any one of those 3 items. |
I dropped out |
Ok first |
I don't need no woman |
Second |
Fuck having kids |
I can't even afford to date to get a g/f, so screw that noise. |
No way I could afford kids |
I've known that since I was seven |
No that's not hyperbole |
I've always hated the idea of raising kids |
lol at all the rich/old people blaming this generation for not wanting kids and gonna be nobody to take care of them.. Geee, I wonder why Karen, maybe its because you own 5 homes and rent 3 of them out at 3000/month? |
Back when i was first out of college i was just making ends meet. Then I met my S/O and one date put me so far in the red for the month. |
Most of the apartments here are $425 to $750 for SRO |
And yes they are as shit as you think |
@Melez yea. And before someone says "you don't have to pay for her! equality!" "I don't have money to pay for my OWN dinner either, A&W's is too damn expensive for me these days" |
And then I got a knee injury I couldn’t afford to take care of so instead of biking to work, I had to get a $120/mo train pass and.. oof suddenly I was $120/mo over budget. It was like 6 months until I rolled over my first credit card balance |
Going out would be me taking her to my job after work just so I could use my 50% off discount |
RBC calls me 2~3 times a day asking when I am gonna set up a payment plan for the $35,000 I owe them |
https://tenor.com/view/no-randy-jackson-dawg-gif-12730917 |
Im like, if I couldn't pay the $300 min payment, that was going to take.. 270 years according to my bank statement to pay it off, how the $#@% is a payment plan going to work? |
Lol. Yeah no, I almost got broken up with about going Dutch on dates until I explained that I was broke AF. Strangely being broke AF was better than being cheap |
My coworkers are assholes that'll give me shit |
I make OK money now… I’m just 10 years into an underpaid career |
And I still owe student loans lol |
@Melez I will cook her ass dinner, but apparently thats not an option or something, you gotta go to some expensive ass neutral restraunt first? or a movie that also somehow costs $50 after a 10L small pop and 40,000 calories worth of popcorn? |
