I sold lighting products for 13 years and I can tell you that an electrician can make good money and a great electrician is impossible to find. Your knowledge from home inspection will pay off. While you're doing inspections, pay attention to how things are wired, what breakers they're on, etc. When you see something above and beyond, incorporate it into your work. When you see fire-risks, report it and never do that.

If you focus on residential, get ready for some weird requests. You don't realize how disconnected people are from reality until you get into their homes.

I'm a web and iOS app developer and can't find work in either of those, so don't feel bad. The industry is in the midst of a major reshuffling that started during covid and hasn't quit since.

Here's two dome kits that you could check out. I've talked with both and they're all pretty cool folks. Very helpful.

For Sale or Trade

After installing new pickups and professional set up, total final cost was around $1400. I'm willing to sell for $800 or trade for needed farming/forestry hardware.

Guitar has never been gigged with and has only travelled to get price quotes. No scratches, dings, or abrasions of any sort. Includes gig-bag and original maintenance tools. If you're a fan of crunchy metal, this is the guitar for you. If not, it's rings clean as a bell.

If you're interested, but not familiar with or are intimidated by the Floyd Rose Tremelo, I'll be glad to show you how to re-string, tune, or block it off for a static bridge feel.

I live in the Nashville, TN area but will travel a reasonable distance.

Here's a few things I'm willing to trade for, not all inclusive, so if you're interested, make your pitch. I'm somewhat reasonable.
- IBC Totes or other large water storage containers
- Water distillation systems, better if can double as herbal distillation / moonshine still
- Rainwater catchment systems
- Garden irrigation systems
- Live plants and seeds (Zone 7b)
- Not right now, but in the near future, goats
- Tools & small storage shed
- ? Whatchu'got ?

I have a guitar that I've been trying to sell, PRS SE-24. Would that be allowed?

I have no idea what questions to ask and I'm prepared to walk into the woods with a near stranger like an idiot. But I'd rather not.

What are some considerations, questions, or general concerns that I should bring up?

Follow Up:
I met with the feller and used to cause a lot of trouble with one of his cousins. Turns out that he was not there in his role as a county assessor, but as the owner of a septic installation and servicing company.

Upside, where the site for the house is has plenty of room to place a septic tank/field lines and will not disturb any of the fox/armadillo/other dens that are around the property.

Downside, I stepped in a fire ant mound and still have to install a septic tank.

The property is in Decatur Co, TN. Literal spitting distance to the river, when the water's up.

It's both. Where the septic goes, the house will be near by and vice versa.

I find it odd they are sending out an 'assessor'. Typically the Town Sanitarian or health department reviews these sort of things.

It's a real small county, less than roughly 13,000 total population. There's the dubious conflict of interest since the Assessor also owns a backhoe and septic installation/service company, but let's ignore that part for a moment.

Thanks for the guidance!
