Are you planning on hiring a professional for some work around your home? Then you better read up!

When you go into a new job and realize immediately that you're not going to be happy, is it better to quit on the first day or give it some time?

Surprise, surprise—nobody wants to do professional work for nickels and pennies.

If you want to get what you want rather than what you deserve, there are situations when it is preferable to be wise rather than righteous. The story below is an account of a frustrated car ferry worker. The original post (OP) details a previous interaction with a haughty client. The ship was preparing to set sail on a scorching summer's day. Even though the deck was nearly full and OP lacked the necessary area to carry the freight, he offered to load a little MG, if they didn't mind the strain…

Why does everything wiggle?

When you work in a trade, you have to get used to some seriously wacky hours. Forget about regular weekends or peaceful evenings - those are just fairy tales for tradespeople. If you're an electrician, you might find yourself battling a storm at 3 a.m. to fix a power outage or waiting for clients to come home from their 9-5 grind before you can zap some life into their homes.

There are some things in life that just make sense… and not messing with the spicy death wires when you don't know what you're doing with them is one of them. It makes perfectly logical sense that, rather than playing “Operation” where instead of a startling buzzer sound and a light-up nose the penalty for failure is your own untimely fiery demise, you should just let the guys who know what they're doing do it.

If you're going to be a micromanaging kind of manager, then you should at least do it with correct grammar…

Trying to beat that eepy feeling at work should count as overtime.
