07:16:46 <MrMobodies> Hello
07:17:18 <MrMobodies> never had so much difficulty putting up a simple wooden frame for shelves
07:17:40 <MrMobodies> at the side of a disused chimney breast
07:18:06 <MrMobodies> everything is out of level, the walls out out, the floor is out and a 4cm gap from the back to the front
07:18:20 <MrMobodies> I got the first two struts relatively level
07:20:05 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/CMgP3ngy/image.png
07:20:51 <MrMobodies> The two bits of wood I made balanced then glued it to the plastboard wall with a gluegun and put some plasterboard screws through it
07:22:15 <MrMobodies> https://i.postimg.cc/4fTQyC2D/image.png
07:22:38 <MrMobodies> the planks going up the wall on the right with the nails in were already there
07:22:54 <MrMobodies> with the 2 bits of the wood going across to hold the shelves
07:22:58 <MrMobodies> notice they look out
07:23:03 <MrMobodies> they're no, it's the ground
07:23:19 <MrMobodies> I put a spirit level and it looks level
07:23:58 <MrMobodies> it is an 18th century pub

08:29:26 <MrMobodies> Pleased they stopped converting other roads into that.
08:30:09 <MrMobodies> The scheme could have worked and be okay had they just kept the hard shoulders (markings) and used them during slow moving traffic to easy congestion as it was originally intended for and with the extra signs displaying speed limits but no they had to go the extreme
08:32:50 <MrMobodies> as a hard shoulder or slow moving lane(5 - 10 mph) has got to be better than than the risk of or 70mph vehicle or 60phm lorry going in the back or a stationary one.
08:33:17 <MrMobodies> what do you think?

21:49:20 <MrMobodies> This bit: "The Calisen apprenticeship provides fully structured training to become a fully qualified smart meter engineer,"
21:50:39 <MrMobodies> Back 10 years ago when I brought an Apollo 300 pat tester and was testing things for a building firm overseen by an electrician. I wanted to train to do PAT testing to be told the rules had changed and had to become a fully qualified electrician first.
21:51:48 <MrMobodies> Devastated after that phone call.
21:52:40 <MrMobodies> but they seem allowed to do it to only learn an aspect without training to be an electrician first

21:53:52 <EEVBot> [url] Verifying Connection | uk.trustpilot.com
21:55:18 <MrMobodies> I think I can see why. 2.4 stars maybe they are trying to do well but not all the electricians working for them are great and want to replace them with a better attitude workforce trained by them.
