What if it Snows?

I was always told don't get in for moar than you can afford to lose.

I used to roll the dice pretty hard. One school burnt down, kids torched it, about 2/3 of the way through. Had about $40K I waited on for 18 months. Finally got it. That was over 20 years ago.

Lost about $80K on one job. That was the end for me. Was like special forces training for 8 months. And paid $80K for the privilege. But we finished it.

 

No. You're getting ####ed in the ###.

 

I really had it rolling when I got out of the electrical contracting.

There was one project that was so F hard, massive rigid pipework, and I knew there'd be massive change orders to make money.

The owner of the GC, who was a seriously powerful dude, was going," You said change order glory right from the pre-job, how could you have possibly known this?"

I knew the architect. I knew the school system. I said just walk the job.

It was hundreds of thousands dollars. LOL.

 

Wait. Is this California where a bird is classified as a Sea Bass?
