Had a chat with a plumber at a supply house in Tacoma that made me rethink how I quote jobs

Sounds like a dangerous conversation to have. Those supply house chats can cost you real money. Hope your new quote includes a "plumber wisdom" surcharge.

Wait, do you mean the supply house guys are giving out bad advice? I've actually learned a ton from those chats, like little tricks for old fittings. Maybe it depends on who you talk to, but the guys at my usual spot are pretty solid. I mean, they've saved me from a couple dumb mistakes before.

Happens everywhere honestly, you get good advice and bad advice from the same types of places. I mean, my mechanic is a genius but his front desk guy will tell you anything. Just gotta know who to trust, idk.
