Ya it's a #3 screw driver. Had to replace it with Allen wrench type. Don't know why I didn't get the OEM. But thanks for the info!

That's right homes! And honestly the trades are gonna see an insane spike of need and want! Get in now!

I'll try too. A bit different for me since I never know what I'm doing. But thanks for requesting!

Well said! Thanks for that insight and input! Appreciate you sharing that with all the folks and it's always great to see someone who is invested and still sharing the knowledge!

Didn't know they were I'll change it!

You know brother around doing the damn thing. I've just been building content within. Maybe I'll share it. Maybe I won't. But thanks for asking. You good?

@@JoonRhee Yes I'm doing very well. Been travelling at the moment for work currently on a massive battery plant in ontario. How's work been for you?

Welcome! Hahaha I don't know if you heard the audio but I broke 4 of them:)

Well done! You've done all you can and now you have to play the waiting game! It's worth it though. Way to go on taking those forward steps! Keep us posted! Thanks for sharing

I have for sure learned that nipples were meant to be played with

That's great to hear! Way to go and way to show him that you want it and show him that you're interested. A call back really depends on how many interviews they have to go through and how many people are interviewing for the position. I believe mine was about a week just because of all the candidates that they have to go through so it depends. But they'll get back to you for sure to let you know. At least if you made it on the list at all. Keep us informed. Congratulations!

I believe it was a 10' one of the smallest

@@JoonRhee Thank you!!

@@moidsl no biggie best of luck with your move!

Where did you place!? And very cool to hear. Glad I could help and guide in some regard. Thanks for sharing!

Esa es la belleza de la plomería. debe saber que ha sido capacitado y altamente capacitado para saber que lo que ha hecho es correcto y no será necesario arreglarlo una vez que todo esté terminado. ¡gracias por el comentario!

Right on amigo! Depends on how many people you have to go through and are on the waiting list. I only went through one. But our Union wasn't as competitive as others. But I still had to beat out some people. Keep us in the loop. May the plumbing gods be on your side

I'm glad it helped brother. Appreciate it and in terms of religious beliefs and views politics, I would keep those more personal just because those are heavy and hard topics to bring up at work. If you want to pay her career I would just be a little more enlightened. Thanks for the comment

That's really a bummer to hear. I know that HVAC or fitters have a lot more pm work so I'm glad you got in for that. I'm sure it's still fun. But yes plumbing work or contractors better start prepping new people or we are fucked! Thanks for sharing this

@@JoonRhee yeah I'm not sure what's going on, but the knowledge needs to be passed down.

They have some solid stuff!!!! Thanks for the love

I had this same problem today with my Land cruiser 2006, instead of buying bigger breaker bars and hurting my back, I just removed the radiator to make space for my Milwak M18, put the toughest fat 1/2” socket wrench I got, put on eye protection and ear plugs as it will be loud as hell, prayed to Jesus and Buddha, and pressed the trigger. The whole car shook like crazy and it was loud as fk but she came out after 3 seconds! Lots of dust everywhere afterwards…

@@takeshi1242 what another glorious story! Yes as you can see I did the same with my ears! I hate just a normal impact sound. But that bitch is amazing! Won't ever do a job without it! Totally awesome to hear! Way to go! Thanks for sharing!

Mmmm that's a tough question. I wanna ask why start now? I am assuming you hAve a career or are retired? Or? I can't tell you no. The only concern is your body. And in which sector of plumbing you get involved with. If you go union it's mostly commercial which is a hard grind. But residential for sure is a little lighter but smaller areas. Great question! If you want less heavy work in the union there is always being an electrician:)

My experience was I had to get in and I therefore had to work my ass off to prep for the aptitude test and get all my references in order and if I were to get myself an interview I needed to make sure that I got it. I did. Maybe a little bit better than average on the aptitude test and I was their number one choice during the interview. So for me my turnaround was pretty quick. I got hired on to a contractor within 2 days and was accepted about a month later

I'm deaf

Hey I’m a JM plumber and a plumbing instructor at a local college. I would take your inquiries to your local plumbers and pipe fitters union. See what they have to say. Good luck!

Howdy! I'd say it's going well:) hope you search my channel and it will provide you with more answers. But yes, finished last year and won't ever look back. What a great experience, challenge and worth the investment. Best of luck, keep us in the loop

It's wild that these wonderful cars are still grinding and pushing! You're welcome thanks for the support

Hey congrats I hope you raise your child with love I know you will be a great dad I too am interested in plumbing but not really good at math either but from what I know you'll need to maybe know 9 th grade level math basic multiplication division etc but don't let that stop you from pursuing your dream goals finally just pray to God and he will guide you where you need to go. I hope everything works out.

Consider fire fighting? You already have your EMT

@@skatertraderprob can’t pass the test. Not many can

Appreciate support! Thanks for sharing!

Do you have your license? If not, you'll have to apply and go through our program. If you get your license you can apply to join but you'll have to work really hard to make your name bc we consider a person a "white ticket" who didn't earn their stripes like US through a 5 year program. Anyway that's the routes I know of

Cool thank for the response brotha !

@@stevenelwart3691 no problem. I try and help where I can. And try not to talk when I don't know. Still working on that one

Hey, glad you found the channel. Congrats on your interview and as far as any other advice I'd have to say the videos are good and you got to tell them that you want it and you're actually not going to quit. I think that's the biggest thing and you're going to try to become better throughout your entire career. Keep us filled in

What do you mean instrumentation? Like an avenue of education? Bar none, a 5 year union apprenticeship is the best door opener for opportunities. At least nationwide and highest paying. But if you're just wanting plumb in your area there are many avenues. All comes down to what you want.

We got a know it all!! back up everyone !!

Really love hearing this! Super encouraging! And yes thanks for offering your view point and showing others it's legit work. Really glad.its working out for you so far and you are keeping with the tools! Thanks for sharing

Tough to say. It's more technical at times on both sides. It's more dirty on both sides. It's more hard on the body on both sides. It's really a matter of what you want to deal with on a daily basis! Great question!

Hahaha I've met a lot of folks over my life. You made it sound like I have a secret lover! Hahaha and I don't so it doesn't bother me

@@JoonRhee ok ok this is actually cool, I’m the second year apprentice that was helping out Andre for a bit in the shop. I used your older videos to learn offsets, takeoffs, and make up. I was just thinking wow this guy knows what he’s talking about imma subscribe and then I meet you in real life without noticing it was you on yt 🤣

@@Yogurt589 oh no shit! That's dope homie! Was.it Issac? Hahaha that's a very small world! Love that I can help! That's way cool my man! Keep it up!

@@JoonRhee elijah but close enough. its really cool watching older videos and learn from ur challenges. watching second year you and comparing it to myself makes me feel a lot better in the journey. I love the job that I do and the friends I'm making on he way

@@Yogurt589 damn! I knew it was an old testament name! Right on partner! Really glad you are gleaning from my journey! It's fun for me to look back too! See you around brother!

I just keep reading it:) started my first year and I try to look at it once or twice a week

Thanks for dropping a line! And very good! Way to go and keep up that hunger:)

Howdy! Depends I guess. Once it's hooked up check for leaks. I would assume you don't have too but I'm not fully aware of those types of details. Good question!

Oh man. Been a while since I did this project. But yes you have to think righty tidy lefty loosey but as if you were putting the hose on the other side of the like from behind the firewall. So if you look at it and the way you're looking at it... In this case looking straight at the EGR you would spin it to the right to loosen it which is weird but that is great

That seems more like a fitter question. They use butt weld fittings. We don't weld on our side. So I'm not aware of the thirds formula you mentioned. All I know is 2.61 is your constant for finding your travel piece. And than you subtract your take off. Thanks for the question!

@JoonRhee thanks for the video! It's very helpful and easy to understand. Once I figure out how to calculate the take off for the fitting ill be all set. Thanks for answering!

@@benni85 hey right on, glad to hear brother. I appreciate your help and thanks for reaching out. Trying to help out in any way I can and share the knowledge. Pass it on tag. You're it!

Way to go! Nothing like starting a new journey! Hope there does happen to be opportunities soon! Thanks for sharing and dropping line! Keep us in the loop

Great ask! Ya I'll get one up and see if it helps! It's hard to see the lines on my camera is why I think I didn't do it. But I'll try again

@@JoonRhee Would you say it's hard to grasp?

I would say it's good to be nervous but trying to manage worry is not easy brother for sure. But good for you. Hopefully you did well and getting the second interview would be nice and keep us in the loop. Hope you find some good information and value in this page

Annnnd I’ve just been informed by text that I didn’t get it so I guess all the worrying was for nothing 😅 I’ll try harder

@@williamphillips-ki1vt whatabama, sorry to hear that and yeah it's not easy to get in brother. That's probably the hardest part and then sticking with it. It was the two hardest things for sure. Keep trying to keep your head up

You welcome. Hope it helps find that self care and thank you for letting me know

Mahalo! Love the love and it's just something that we overlook as maybe humans not just trades people. Hope all is well

Thank you and hopefully this lets us take a moment to reflect on who we are and I'll think about doing a live stream. I don't know what I would talk about so we'll see. Thanks for the support

Halllloooooo! That's a good one! Welcome to the channel!

I'll be straight up. My dad always kept in shape and that kind of inspired me to stay in shape most of my life. Do you need to be in shape for this job? I recommend it. Are there proper ways to do things? Yes, always. Most of the injuries that the old timers talk about are preventative. I never let any old guy in the trade. Tell me how to use my body because I knew it was best. Is it harder on the body? Sure, it will take a toll on you. Sure, but it's manageable and it won't take you out of the game. But if you don't take care of your body now, it's for sure going to ruin your body even more. That's really all I can say. Good question, thanks for asking

Oh damn! Really!? In a hospital? That's scary! And yes gas is one of my favorites too. Both press and thread I like thread:) thanks for dropping a line
