I love that hike. It's so gorgeous.

Always had it called Komo Kulshan growing up, not Koma Kulshan, but that just a different romanization of the same name.

We visited there recently as well. Like no other place on earth. If you're still around that area you should check out the Maple Glade trail off of N Shore Rd by Lake Quinault.

Eh good point, I am on the west side of the state. I forget the east side exists sometimes. Another world over there.

Eastern Washington has gloom?

So we’re in the top 5, in the same league as Alaska and Louisiana.. They’re still right

** you’re

The nature loop is also a great a trail

Where’d you move to and how do you like it?

If you live in Seattle and you don’t like it, “just move” really is a valid option. Almost anywhere you’d go is cheaper lol

Because it’s a great place to live but there aren’t enough houses. Weather is up to personal preferences. I like the weather here overall.

It'll look fantastic in my office. Thanks for the link and your thoughtfulness about posting the link.

Yes there are multiple classifications of electricians, each with their own restrictions of what they can and can’t do ( ie 02 residential “ think houses and apartment buildings under 5 stories”, 06 low voltage “ fire alarm, multimedia systems”) as well as a few others. Those classifications can for the most part only stick to that certain specialty. An 01 typically does any commercial space or industrial ( think high rise buildings, schools, factories) but they are unrestricted, so can legally do the other classifications of work as well.

The best way to become an electrician is to go down to the union hall and apply for the apprenticeship, however there is also an avenue to go the non union route which can be less wait time , but you won’t get as good of benefits or things like a triple retirement.

Well after looking into it, with the positive reaction I've got to this stuff I decided to put it on a store last night. Asked the moderation team about it and they OK'd posting a link. I don't want to spam up the subreddit trying to make money, especially one I've never been active in before, so it'll only be here for those who expressed interest:

Unfortunately I cannot set a price myself.

Wtf, what a great comment.. murderers only exist in certain places didn't you know that! The east coast is so much safer.. Louisiana hasn't had a murder in over 100 years! I heard Florida is the safest place on earth! Did you know that Kansas only grows corn?

Go Cougs!

It pisses me off so much when I read news articles and they refer DC as Washington. I don’t blame this guy, I blame corporate media for being shit these days.

I personally am not union. And, I am not sure if Local 46 is the same as Local 48, but they are probably similar. They all fall under IBEW (International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers).

Not all electricians are union. But, I don't know how apprenticeship works outside of a union.

I think for electricians, if you need a job, you get your name on the list at the union hall. First person on the list gets placed at a job site, then they continue going down the list.

My partner hasn't been on the list since the 1990s, as there has been steady work for Journeyman Electricians and he has been working at the same company for about 15 years.

Yes, the union helps to place you. And, the benefits are awesome.

There is low-voltage, residential, commercial and lineman. They are all different. My partner, as a journeyman, can do commercial and residential. Commercial just means that he is not working residential. He does electrical maintenance for a large corporation. If Corporate America needs a TV installed, they schedule the job for both low-voltage and commercial electricians. This is probably required by either their organization or the union, because as a journeyman, he can do low voltage.

My nephew recently went to lineman school/training in Idaho. I don't know much about it, but I know that linemen work with high voltage.
