Master Electrician Dad Teaches Son a Valuable Lesson, 2 is better than 1 in Service, Thoughts?

So, if I told you Chris, I needed a 20-amp GFCI, I need you to go to Home Depot and buy it. How many are you going to buy? Uh if it's for customer that needs one, I'm just going to buy one. >> You buy two. You always buy two of something you don't have. It's true. One that you're going to put in that day and one so you don't have to go to Home Depot or take your time. Mhm. There's nothing worse than having to go to the supply house for something as simple as a cover or a GFCI or something that does not allow you to finish the job, right? Yeah, that's true cuz then I have to go waste my time and go to the supply house or the store. That's my time right there. You're right, always you should always get two of something than just [music] one. Always said that. Get two. And that's the difference between a lot of guys. They'll shortcut, they'll use used parts. >> Yeah, yeah. And customers don't know that. >> Right, yeah. They just expect it to be done right. But yet there's an electrician that'll come in and he'll use used equipment, used breakers, and used devices, right? >> a lot of electricians also look at the cost. Of course they do. It comes down to the cost at the end of the day, I feel like. There's a lot of ways you can get it done, but I think it's the price, right? It's always down to price, right? And and the new guys technically tend to have [music] a tendency to do that. Right. It's It's not a good practice. And once your business starts to grow [music] and you make you you will never do that. You'll always want to put in something brand new. >> Yeah. Well, thanks for the knowledge. That was great, man.
