Lads I'm a clueless shitposter boomer that through sheer persistence managed to pull a job interview next week for a plumber assistant position. How do I increase my chances of getting hired?I'm a /fit/izen so I'm in pretty good shape and have a tiny bit of diy experience but that's it. Really shitty memory btw.
shit flows downhill
>>2794768That's the kind of tip that will get me promoted, I'm looking to get hired though.
>>2794784You’re probably retarded. You’re middle aged interviewing for an apprentice position and you post here asking retarded questions. Highlight the fact that you don’t have a wife or girlfriend, no kids, no drug problems, own an alarm clock and reliable transportation to work. An actual monkey could be a plumbers apprentice, they just want to be sure you’ll show up and not be drunk/high/committing DV
>>2794786Good to know. I'm retarded in the sense of being pretty lazy and not wanting to be a slave to (((them))) but otherwise I consider myself to have decent common sense. I guess I'll make sure to highlight the points you have just mentioned and my willingness to learn.
>>2794767Lol dumbass finally realised lifting heavy weights is a useless excercise and that a man actually has to provide value to society>>2794768Not completely true. I was a surveyors assistant for a company and our job was to collect data points of a small towns whole drainage system. We found that on many occasions the water was flowing up hill and was still draining properly.
>>2794797Fatty
>>2794797>We found that on many occasions the water was flowing up hillno no no and fucking no. just stop. that doesn't even work on a flat earth or whatever nonsense that has wormed its way into your noodle head.
>>2794767>Lads I'm a clueless shitposter boomerdoubt
>>2794768>shit flows downhillHot on the left
>>2794857doesn't know about the nile...
>>279486130yo boomer
>>2794885Boomers aren't 30. Most are over twice that. You are indeed clueless though.
>>2794857If there's enough pressure behind it and the outlet is lower than the inlet then it will indeed flow uphill it's pretty kooky brother
Just be honest about what you know OP. They probably don't expect much but will have you driving to the store to get parts or digging holes or snaking drains to start. If you lie about your experience they will find out immediately when you're sent to do something by yourself and fuck it up. Compression lines don't have to be tighter than hell, finger tighten then give it maybe a half turn with your wrench. Drains you will want to tighten with wrenches until you can't get more out of it then test with hot and cold water for longer than you think you need to.
>>2794897as part of the evolving culture war demoralization meme, "boomers" are now anyone over the age of 21 bruh
>>2795333Nah, you're just illiterate and unable to value precise meaning, but public school is to blame for that.
>>2795350>it doesn't mean that because I say sookay boomer
>>2794844Bigger than you
>>2794897lurk more
>>2794864Payday's Thursday. The plumbing trifecta of knowledge.
>>2794767dress like Mario and Luigi
>>2795381>Bigger than youYes. You're a big guy indeed.>t.
>>2794767>I work for free for 1 week to learn the things and all
>>2795423HER HER HER HER HER
>>2794767learn the names of tools. it's only a few, but being able to grab the right thing when asked really helps.also, when you're handing things, pay attention to WHAT the guy you're helping is doing and WHY he's doing it.
>>2794857it does if there's pressure on the line.
>>2794868the nile is downhill, it's just headed north downhill, because the elevated source is to the south and the sea is north. dumbass flat earth.
>>2794868>05/02/24(Thu)18:47:30>>2796089>05/05/24(Sun)20:20:22Over three days...
You will be running back and forth, doing all the grunt work. Better get your hep shots because you gun covered in shit
>>2794767show up with a bunch of butchered lumber
>>2795381Being a fat ass tends to add girth.
>>2796087>learn the names of tools.I know that as I own a bunch of them.Doesn't matter though because I didn't get the job, turns out recruiters don't like when you have lots of hiatus on your cv.Also applied to a position help assembling windows and another to help installing PVC pipes, I missed a call from the former and they didn't call me again and the later has not even yet replied to my email.I too applied to a beaner fruit picking job but they just texted me to say I didn't get it either.Depressing as hell, if I don't get hired soon I'll apply for benefits and go on the dole lmao. Food stamps might be a better option than looking for a job every day only to get kicked on the face by employers.
>>2794868No river flows uphill.
>>2794767>watch Drain Cleaning Australia>show up with that guys attitude>profit
>>2796484
You're a clueless fat motherfucker that's what
Fuck yeah bros got myself a construction job.
>>2796708You won't succeed
>>2795225>>2796088Pressure? In a drainage system?
>>2796716>Pressure? In a drainage system?Summary:anon says he once observed water flowing uphill.another anon calls him out on his bullshitvarious anons chime in clearly talking about water constrained in pipes being fed by pumps or by gravity; in no way does any of this constitute water "flowing uphill" in any intelligent senseyou are here now. continue at your peril; be forewarned that idiot autists are never wrong and have never been wrong, and won't be wrong in this case, because water actually does flow uphill in their world.
>>2796710
>>2796109I was the only person at my company who had hep shots. Previous job made me get them to occasionally plunge a factory toilet. Resi plumber job sent apprentices in shit covered crawlspaces crawling over maggots kek
>>2796716It can happen...
>>2795396High level vents, low level drains
>>2796558That's not uphill, that's just north. It flows north towards a point lower in elevation than its source
>>2794797>water was flowing up hill and was still draining properlyHows about you keep that factoid to yourself on your next interview
