My favorite thing to do when learning a new skill or job is to watch/listen/participate with everyone around me that is involved, take in the way that each person does it, let it all sink in, and turn it into what works best for me.I have had a few different types of jobs; I laid irrigation pipe for 3 summers, I was roadie for a local band that toured Nebraska for about 3 years, I worked in a warehouse of a carpet shop for a summer, I was a line cook in a scratch kitchens for 10 years (this is what I owe most of my quick-on-the-fly thinking skills from), and I am currently a Journeyman Electrician (7 years in the trade) I am taking my Electrical Contractors test this month and if pass that I will be able to pull all my own electrical permits.I have a wonderful family (wife and a daughter) who support me in all that I do.

Cooks can walk out if they don’t want the new structure and it will change the quality.

We are waiting on an official cause of fire, but in all likelihood, the cause was unattended cooking (tenant's fault).

My practice area focuses on real estate tax sales and tax deeds in Cook County (Chicago and surrounding suburbs) Illinois.

America is a melting pot of cultures and views which makes America so great.

The funny thing I learned about the average labor person in Mass, you know, the husky dudes wearing flannel, is that they would prefer to sit in their basement smoking pot all day or hanging out at their basement bar with their buddies bitching about having no work and playing video games or still thinking the crappy band they are in is cool because they get to play the local PNA or Elk's lodge once every few months.

@steve cook, I live here in Indy and only look here.

What are you going to do for me as a landlord to sweeten the pot?

Why not pay for their cooking gas, internet, cable TV, phone, cellphones and electricity?

Property taxes are crazy in "Crook County" sorry I meant to say "Cook County" Illinois.
