Well, today is the day that I have to be up at the crack of yuck to take my wife down to St. Luke’s in Boise for her spine surgery.\u00a0 I have to have her down there at 5:30 a.m. and just drop her off.\u00a0 It would be nice if I could just stay at the hospital but that is not allowed.\u00a0 So, I will be back in my office by 6:00 a.m. just plugging away on estimates, organizing, routing, invoicing, backflow test reports, and more while I wait for the call that I can go back to the hospital for visitation.<\/p>\n
Jacob will be working primarily in Meridian 83646 the majority of the day as he takes care of some light repairs and hopefully clears up several sprinkler start-ups in the zip code.\u00a0 I will be around for technical advice if necessary, but since Jacob has been working with me off and on since he was 5 years old and is quite intelligent, I usually don’t hear from him much.\u00a0 IF all goes well, we will work on Eagle, Nampa, and more Meridian on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.<\/p>\n
We had to trace through 300 feet of wiring yesterday to find a short so we could get the new irrigation pump up and running.\u00a0 Thank goodness we carry a lot of cool tools with us like wire tracers that are able to find breaks in the wire so we could get it repaired.\u00a0 The job only took about 3 hours, and that is after picking up the necessary parts.\u00a0 We still have to get the piping finished on the pump itself which we will do on Wednesday or Thursday.<\/p>\n
Jacob should be able to get his entire route completed today as long he doesn’t run into a lot of difficulties. Most of the repairs are minor, and as long there aren’t a lot of head changes to make on the start-ups it the day should go smoothly.<\/p>\n
