I've been working in construction for the past 11 years at this point with a few years before that in a part time role. I'm more than happy to lend whatever knowledge or insights I may have about work, life, or whatever.

I will be checking in sporadically to see if there are questions.

EDITED WELL AFTER QUESTIONS STOPPED: I'm still active-ish on Lemmy, so if you happen to find this and have a question, I will likely still get back to you.

I've got a solid-wood, antique (circa 1930s, I guess), huge built-in pantry/cupboard (4' wide, 8' high, drawers on the bottom third and shelves with glass doors above) that I found on the side of the road for free because the owner of the house it was originally installed in just didn't want it anymore for some reason. It's crazy what folks throw out these days.

I'm lucky I own a utility trailer (which was also free: I bought a used car private-party and the seller insisted I take it too), or I'd have never been able to get it home.
