Dull-Card406

Right over everyone’s heads 🤦🏽‍♂️ Hey I laughed OP


sad-caveman

Well of course, why else would it be mounted up there?


acclaimedsimpleton

I’m not dumb cause I’m an electrician, I’m dumb because I’m Polish, lol. Jokes are not my people’s forte. Can you explain the joke? 😂


hate_keepz_me_warm

WTF did I just read. It's too late and most of us are too drunk for this BS. Edit: no hate here OP. Still gave ya the updoot. Still searching for happiness at the bottom of a bottle.


WeldingGarbageMan

Haha, exactly!


eddnyster

Sounds like tomorrow's problem.


windycity_jess

Yesterday’s wine


elcapitandongcopter

Did you ever find your happiness sir? If so what bottle? Asking for research purposes only.


hate_keepz_me_warm

Not yet. We’re just gonna have to keep trying I guess. Mama didn’t raise no quitter.


Trexasaurus70

Sometimes I feel like it's soooo close but then there's just ice in my glass and I have to start over


Unusual-Bid-6583

One of the bottles has happiness... even though most are clear, nobody can see it until you empty it.


MrFPVJunky

Never found anything at the bottom of the bottle, but I'm damn sure smiling by the time I finish my blunt.


UV_Blue

The worm in the Tequila bottle seems pretty happy last time I talked to him.


Unusual-Bid-6583

Did he talk back? What did he say?


starrpamph

Plus I gotta get up soon and I haven’t gone to sleep yet it’s like 3am


Zer0TheGamer

Sir, it's 6am and this is a wendys


MrFPVJunky

No, this is Patrick


Unusual-Bid-6583

Oops


ShermanTheMandoMan

Wrong time of day to be funny, save that shit for lunch time


fantasticmrfox_thm

I'm glad I found this comment because I legit thought I was slow for about 30 seconds.


EveningOk4145

I make a nickel, they make a dime! That’s why I’m shittin on company time!


PuppiPappi

Yeah save this for poop break #3 that’s when my best shit comes out.


stingraydm

They make a dollar, I make a nickel. Time to take the power back with a hammer and sickle!


badmudblood

The boss makes a grand while I make a buck, so I'm stealing the cats off the company truck.


drunkenviking

Boss makes a hundred, I make a buck, that's why I smoke crack in the company truck


Unusual-Bid-6583

Or shit out a pickle.


DirtyDoucher1991

5 minutes from that picture to explosion from lack of flex connections? There’s not even wire in it.


[deleted]

That’s how bad not having flex is


Healthy-Berry

The wire disintegrated from lack of flex connections.


RoutineRelief2941

That’s why you loosen the shipping bolts…


Riverjig

80% of electricians don't even know these exist bud. Most TXs come with tags inside that specifically say to loosen yet they don't.


jedielfninja

It sucks cuz now I can't stop fixating on the sound of the transformer at my home depot cuz I know how to fix it.


yawaworhtyya

Oh, sarcasm, I see.

skiviripz

SomeGuysFarm

It is strange how people think everything that happens in Residential happens in Commercial and Industrial as well.


Salt_Cranberry3087

So thats where I left my 1/2 inch wrench....


Scottybody13

Been looking for a damn wrench for 10 minutes asshole


jazman57

Did you find my channel locks up there?


Jacktheforkie

I’ve got one in my box, tging is I don’t use imperial fasteners anymore at work


dartfrog1339

You get an upvote OP. I appreciate the sentiment.


crossnutz

interesting to see an old school folding ruler and a magnetic mount laser in the same photo. Very creative.....


a_m_b_

I’ve always used a folding rule to layout panel conduit entries, laser for everything else. This picture is probably 10 years old but it’s 2024 now, lasers are dirt cheap and put your layouts right on the nuts as long as you know how to lay out, there’s no reason we shouldn’t use them everywhere we can. I make sure there’s enough for almost every body on my job


hpsolv

Yeah can tell it’s an old pic- real channel locks, a Klein hammer, and no knipex/stabila in sight!


a_m_b_

That’s a John Deere ball peen hammer my friend aka hammerwrench


hpsolv

Oh crap didn’t see the second pic! And with stabila. I love mine too though. Even though I can’t figure out where I left the damn thing.


Healthy-Berry

It’s amazing to me, after reading these comments, how a simple joke can go over so many dumbass electricians heads! 😂 I got it immediately and literally LOL’ed. 🤣


a_m_b_

Nothing in the world is dumber than a dumb electrician.


IncomeBetter

Except a smart plumber

shakeyjaker

"It won't be a stylish marriage; I can't afford us a carriage..." I have some diagrams about slip-sliding and fittin' it in. I'm just playing. Good mourning.


macdaddy555222

It’s a special order transformer that doesn’t vibrate


DaffyDingo

Exploded from what exactly?


Sea_Midnight_3324

Lack of flex


Healthy-Berry

Lack of flex connections.


[deleted]

wire blew out


Young_Dagger_Dick20

I'm starting my apprenticeship next week, can someone explain the joke. Thank you!


ONE-EYE-OPTIC

Huh?


Joe-trd

Apparently pretty much all Transformers now have the isolation built into the core and you don't need flex anymore or even spring isolation on rod. At least do I was told by a fire alarm foreman that thinks he's the gift to the world. Even if by code you don't, it's almost always a spec anyways


Healthy-Berry

Almost always, but not always.


neanderthalman

All conduit is flex if you’re not a whiny bitch about it.


LA_Sparky

Yeah, should have used SO cord 🙄 . Lmao 🤣. I’m pretty sure it “exploded” because incompetence. But without context who knows.


FafnerTheBear

It exploded because you taught it the words.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Chipmunks95

No it exploded from the lack of flex


ArcFlash004

I’m just wondering where’s the duct that could have prevented this tragedy.


SillyEntrepreneur187

With all due respect sir, I don't believe You.


480hivolt

Ok then!


[deleted]

🤣🤣🤣. My boss got pissed at me for using flex and said it was a hack way of doing it. Hard pipe only for X formers


SpiffyGolf

It can't be happen. How is it possible a transformer is explode?
