Keeping this statement in my back pocket in case I go kinetic on a relative during the Thanksgiving family football game...

Good Saturday Morning all. Coffee this morning to get things started with a nice day ahead of us here in Austin with the high 67*, sunny with 0% chance of rain. The Mrs and I are off to see "Ford vs Ferrari" this afternoon. Then out to dinner. UT vs Iowa, so hopefully the right team made the flight. Anyway hope you all have a Good Saturday and be safe out there!! :tup:

I finished my major project Thursday at 2:30. Basically been on coast mode since. I’m enjoying the **** out of this weekend.

JARblue 11-16-2019 07:26 AM

I've got plan reviews stacking up all over the place. Aside from the normal tenant finish-out retail stuff, I've got 3 large assisted living facilities over 200K sf each along with 4 new high rise office/apt buildings that are 20-45 stories tall. Wheeeeeeeee.... :ugh:

JARblue 11-16-2019 07:30 AM

The architect called me yesterday regarding my proposal for one of the office high rises worried about my numbers. I've been doing this for 15 years, so I've got a pretty good idea on my expenses and income. The proposal was perfectly fine from my perspective, but to make sure they were happy I added 25% and raised my costs from $3K to $4K for my services. Whatever lol... guess I can't complain :tup:

Had a client come to me and tell me we weren’t charging enough and he wanted us to submit a new increased rate schedule. Needles to say I didnt argue much.

Most architects just pass consulting costs onto the owner through their contract documents. With a 10% markup. So when I increase my proposal costs, it makes them more money. No wonder they are pushing for higher fees.

Changed the front brake pads on the Power Wagon today. Still using the EBC YellowStuff pads. :tup:

When changing the right side pads. I caught something out of the corner of my eye. Looked closer, and I now have a cracked exhaust manifold. :shakes head: Time for some LTH's.
