I think I may be aging out of my job, spend a lot of time too pissed at stuff. I came across a box of some new stuff the boss ordered for the installer (i dont know if i ever mentioned i got a "promotion" a few years ago to a "supervisor" position but got cucked everytime i turned around, I despise micromanagement). Anyhow in the box was a cool elbow fro protecting cable from varmints, that was pretty cool, i used to keep pvc and conduit to bend, I wished i had had something like that when i was installing. then I see it, i pile of tubes of silicone FUCKING SILICONE I despise silicone, it should be banned from the planet, it had its time, like manual push mowers. I banned this shit years ago. I put it in the garbage and remind techs to never use it, if you want caulk, butyl. otherwise always use mastic, it stays malleable and moves if the hole chnages for nay reason, you can pull it, reuse it in the hole, you can paint over it, etc. silicone hardens and all you can ever do is put more silicone on it, and if you ever came in after a guy who doesnt believe theres such thing as enough silicone you have a half a day jus getting through it. A whole box of this shit. I went ballistic. planned to call back the headhunter tonite to get me a new job, started plotting violence in my head. Almost walked out. over silicone. Pretty sure that level of rage is unhealthy, but so is the amount of bacon and butter I consume, so it probably evens out. get off my lawn
