    They have guys that started out as green as Antony & got bashed in the industry even worse but the fact that they didn’t give up and kept going is what made them into great plumbers/ HVAC guys today. So keep your head up Anthony & prove em wrong 😎

    No wonder you can't keep help! You definitely have a green one there. Publicly humiliating Anthony is not the right thing. Should have kept this off YT. Your vetting skills suck!

      As a 36+ HVAC veteran, i fully disagree. I have trained many, many apprentices and over the years I have found using humor to somewhat mock and belittle one of the best teaching methods. Its wholly better than yelling at them like a Marine Corp drill instructor. It also shows the apprentice that he can use the same approach on the teacher when in those rare but yes they do happen times we do something dumb or backwards are simply look like its day one for us.
      The company I am with and have been for the last 10 years hired an apprentice about the same time they hired me as a master tech. I was hired to replace the journeyman training him, as the journeyman was leaving to go into a different field. Anyhow during that to weeks transition I noticed that the apprentice like all apprentices make mistakes, and the journeyman would say things like, I knew you would eff that up! I knew I should have just done it myself! Etc.etc.
      Once that Journeyman had left I took over training, and my method was quite similar to Mikey's.
      Results, that rookie, newbie, cherry, greenie, noob, apprentice, what ever you like to call him, is one damn good installer and tech.
      This is not retail, its not a cushy office job, its not like many fields of employment. Coddling is a waste of time, but being truly mean does not produce results either. Mikey's approach is probably the best method I in my long career have seen.
      P.s. Mickey reminds me a bit of my primary mentor back in 87.

    Try a self-repositioning version of a crescent wrench..... allows you to reposition without taking took off of a nut.... would be perfect for valve stem nuts etc... and not put pliars that dig into the brass parts. Better than a Kinipixisis. Wrench for nuts, gripping teeth for pipes... right ?
    Oh, the upstairs is a hydronic loop, so don't the baseboards need to have air bled out ?
