Roger: “I like laying pipe”
Viewers: 👁👄👁
As a residential electrician, I've found through the years that in almost all cases electricians and plumbers get along phenomenally as long as they communicate with each other about where they need to be in a wall etc. Especially here in all conduit land where just installing conduit an inch or so back in the wall can make all the difference in the world for the plumber if he happens to be unfortunately scheduled after you for rough. (Can't just shove EMT a little out of the way like you can Romex) It might take longer, but I always try to figure out where the other mechanical trades need to route their things and it usually turns out great.
I'd say (most) electricians are EQUAL to (most) plumbers since in the Chicago area we pretty much do the same thing. Although, we awesome electricians have to pull wires through our pipes and those lazy plumbers only need to turn a valve to fill up theirs.
Get rid of the carpenters and we all will have a happy work atmosphere 😅
Man i love both of you guys. I’m currently in electrical but you guys make me want to know both sides of both trades! Thanks for the awesome content, we really really appreciate it. You are teaching silent lurkers like me every day even though we don’t comment on the videos! Thank you again Dustin!
I’m always the same way. I love doing electrical but I wanna do so much more too!
Learn as many trades as you can. Its equal to printing money.
When I have an electrical problem, I'm inclined to look at it myself first. When the septic is backed up, I reach for the phone.
Forget plumber vs electrician, you guys combined are like the Voltron of trade comedy! The attention to detail goes way beyond code. Not just knowing the craft but the ability to adapt and overcome. Thanks gents
I left a great review for a restaurant in Twin Falls, Idaho (Jakers Bar and Grill) and made sure to shout out the server so she could get the positive recognition she deserved. The owner of the restaurant saw it and thanked me. Reviews are the life blood for just about any customer facing business now a days, its important to give the good reviews when they are well deserved!
This was awesome, now you just need to bring in an HVAC guy and y’all got the trifecta of building systems talking about how things are!
I agree, any recommendations?
@@ElectricianU Brian from HVAC School seems like a great guest. Reminds me a lot of you.
Hell yeah
@@ElectricianU Hey Dustin, Andrew Greaves / AK HVAC seems to match your passion for teaching. May be a great candidate here. Thanks for all you do
No, they are always so picky on where I put my wires. Lol 😂.
That would be interesting to see there perspective too!
Electrician of 5 years and im 23. i absolutely love the trade. I absolutely love the videos from the both of you. Thank you guys from the bottom of my heart the education you guys put out is extremely helpful and has gotten me through a few jams
Appreciate your work, The knowledge you have, and the ability to add humor in people’s lives!
Always a good time on this channel.
Thank you for sharing. And also thanks to all of the ones behind you 🙏
What a great fun video with friends chatting and talking about “crap” and “sparks”.
Love love love it. Glad to see this colab; as both of you are great fun ppl and enjoy ya both. You have the personalities to take command and calm a situation and make things happen.
Cheers to you both and great success ✌🏻
You two have got to be my favorite tradesmen awesome you guys did a video together!
I do both plumbing and electricity also electronics ended up being hvac boiler burner mechanic
I did boiler / HVAC / burner for 10 years and the one thing I learned is there's a LOT going on outside that equipment room that we may know something about... but ... we (and our truck) are not equipped to handle. The flip side is there's a LOT of sparkies and plumbers who don't know squat about what's inside that boiler room. This is where we all need to put our heads together.
Just wanna say your channel has been a huge boost to me getting into the electrical industry. Started with the union 4 months ago and loving every minute of it!
Lol I’d love to know if your thoughts about the union have changed
I do commercial building maintenance and have been watching both your guys videos off and on for years trying to train myself. Right On!
nice work on this interview, great job! is wonderful to hear your comments based on your experiences!
Two of my favorite tradesman on TH-cam. Awesome collaboration!
Love all trades. Being a sparky myself, I know that when on a job site with all the other trades, we all have the same goal in common, get that building up and running, whether it be a house, hotel, hospital, bank, etc...Trades built and repair the world!
You guys GET it! Professional integrity, customer service. The rest is details!
You do a great job. I wish there had been something like this back when I first got in the trade. People like you and many others here are such a wealth of knowledge on so many construction topics that if youre handy you can do anything. I came here to see if you were teaching truth and so far it appears you are. Great content!
Started watching your channel just to learn a little bit about changing some plugs out at my house. Realized i liked it and found a company that would hire me and have been an apprentice for 6 months now and love every second of it.
That's awesome...👌 let's call them receptacles not plugs
This was an excellent interview. I really enjoy watching both of you.
This is cool. Been watching both of you for a long time!! Nice you collaborated!
Pshhh ..... Hvac incorporates both and keeps the customers staying cool. We all know hvac technicians are the real heroes 😆 great episode from my two favorite guys
(not hating) except you guys wait until the customer gets a CofO to actually install your air conditioners making me sweat my balls off for months and then i get to be comfy during trim out
Somedays I do wish I followed more into a trade verses being a "handyman" though the upside is, I get to do the best of many worlds! Love Rogers's and your channels Dustin!
Keep pumping out the awesome content!
Nice job guys promoting the trades. half plumber / half electrician: (Compromise be a plumber and electrician share the
love) Rewired a house that had originally been all gas lighting, had to replace cloth wiring that was in the gas pipes and cause minimal damage to old horsehair plaster walls. Thank goodness for balloon construction.
Love this video! We need more trade people and most importantly we need successful trade people. This video does a great job talking about taking pride in what they do no matter what they do.
Thank you both for your perspective,
I started with carpentry, almost got into plumbing but didn’t work out but got on with a small electrical contractor and had the opportunity to learn a ton. 4 years of that then moved and got into solar, rode that wave and now it’s solar paired energy storage.
How do you all feel about commercial and residential energy storage paired with solar?
Ever get bored with the same old remodels, service calls, new construction?
I love this collab. Y’all are both amazing.
Love you two. Great service persons and great persons as well
That outro was freaking on point. Well done!
Thank you for this video!!! One tip for dealing with customers who write bad reviews is, asking them are they 100% happy with the outcome of my work. If they say no, then I’ll ask what can i do to improve their experience.
Your knowledge and more importantly the ability to spread that knowledge in a way that makes it stick to our brain so easily is amazing! What a easier and better way to learn! Keep doing your thing!!! We’re here to learn from the best!
"everything but the grass and trees..." don't forget the landscape folk!
I love you guys . Seeing you both together is great.
Great video with a hilarious ending! You guys are awesome
I joined a company after getting out of HVAC school last September. Their service team is three traded and I was lucky enough to get really good training to become a service tech for the company. I have watched you and roger religiously since joining the Edelman team and you guys have helped a ton. I love my job and I have no complaints. I can say though, the electrician side is my favorite, don’t tell roger 😂😂
As a builder most my life not only do I share in the joy of creating something but I also couldn't imagine a job pushing papers or dealing with non physical mediums. I realize long ago my place was in the trades and other related venues and it was my job to create a place for other people to sit and waste their time doing essentially nothing.
6:20 love you man. Love the content, 3rd year apprentice here
Somehow I missed part 1, but I loved seeing you and Roger going at it. Thanks Dustin for pulling this together.
The other video interview they did is on Roger's channel! :)
I was pretty cool seeing too the most watched TH-camrs that I watch in one place keep up the good work guys thank you for what you do
Interesting video guys! I'm an electrician but I do work with a plumber and HVAC guy off and on, it's kinda nice changing to something else every so often. But I prefer lighting up places over other trades though lol
Great content keep posting!!!
I enjoy both you and Rodgers content, keep it up!
I could definitely watch more of these videos. Keep it going
You are awesome guys.
Thanks for all.
Ey bro this was badass🤩🤩🤩 your vids help me out a lot keep moving forward
You're both so right. The trades are in need of good workers. 👍
I let out a loud chuckle at the caveman animation, keep up the good work.
Keep up the great content Dustin. I honestly enjoy all of your videos and appreciate all of the hard work that you put into this channel. Like my parents always told me if I don't have something nice to say then don't say anything at all.
This dude you hired to do your videos has stepped up the animation and I appreciate that!
Your back and forth made me laugh. TYSM.
Great interaction between the two of you. Glad to know Roger is in the DFW area. Dustin, time to move away from that Austin area and get up here to the big Forth Worth and north suburbia area.
This is a great and interesting video. Thank you
Such an awesome collaboration
Always great when y’all collab 🔥🔥
one thing i know for sure, applies to all fields, always do it right the first time!
Nailed it !
Well, I was a plumbing/electricity apprentice for a year (until the company went under) and I can definitely say I never had to belly crawl through a septic-flooded crawl space to pull Romex.
So, electrician FTW.
Yeah... As an apprentice plumber years ago, my JM and I got sent to a place that had been leaking sewage into the walk in crawlspace for over SIX MONTHS. He called the company owner, who called the homeowner and said we'll be glad to fix it AFTER you have a leak remediation crew clean it out. On to the next job!
@@PatrickKQ4HBD Man, I feel you. We spent two days pumping out a little old lady’s crawl space because her main line had separated at a joint and she had just been flushing and washing for over a year that way.
We had to put on hazmat suits and crawl like Andy Dufresne through a sloppy, black sewage mess to fix it.
It’s a thousand wonders I don’t have seven kinds of hepatitis from those kinds of jobs.
(I work in a comfy office job with letters beside my name now. So, if I crawl through poo ever again, it’ll be under my own house!)
Yea, BUT you will crawl through other spaces like attics and tight ass spaces in ceilings! Plus, Water pouring on the floor never killed anyone...an electric shock has and will! LOL - I digress, I have respect for all trades, the fitters, the steelies, the sparkys, the tin knockers, the scissor boys, the Brickies, etc....Love em all! When we are all on a job site together, we all have ONE goal in common, that's get that building up and running whether it be a house, commercial building like a bank or hospital or an industrial area like a factory or plant...
@@mikenormandy9250 I’ve crawled through some sketchy attics (found a decomposed cat in one). But never once was worried about coming out with hepatitis like I was working in plumbing.
I clicked so fast 🏃🏾 😂 can’t wait to watch this!!!
I'm amuse for the lack of likes on this video! You two guys are amazing! Been watching for a couple of years now! Sending love from NJ!
For the trades, you 2 are the best.
Man your videos are terrific. I've learned a ton of crap from your channel. I'm not an electrician by trade but I work with high voltage, electrical equipment every day. I recently rewired most most of my house from the main panel forward. Many times reference your channel for things that I need more knowledge for. Thanks for all you do.
My father-in-law was a master plumber in NYC. I have a great respect for all of the building trades.
Gonna start my first day working for an electrical company on Saturday! Thanks for the inspiration!
Welcome to the trade!
How did it go?
@@ryanthepianoman27 first day is this weekend but I got to meet the master electrician yesterday! Went pretty well! Can’t wait for the work this weekend!
@@Baby_Brotha Congrats! What are you going to be working on this Saturday?
Probably gonna have to crawl in an attic or dig a trench lol
I would say you should do something like this with a carpenter, but the interview would just be half grunting and he would randomly start hitting things with a hammer you didn't even realize he had.
Seriously though, great video guys!
I would've suggested a sheetrocker but he would just be tanked the whole time
@@braedengendron6981 NO, there's two hot sisters on TH-cam that do sheetrock work in daisy dukes!
@@PatrickKQ4HBD Your wife is going to be informed
Great collab
Keep doing what you do ❤️
OMG Dustin I was LMAS but he was right everything that you see was built by tradesmen. Love your channel!!
You’re almost at 300k, Dustin!
Awesome!
We like both of you guys... Welldone for both of you..
I LOVE the animations :)
A lot of information here.🤩
As an electrician myself I can say I know the 3 most important rules of plumbing.
#1 - steam goes up.
#2 - s%@# goes down.
#3 - don't bite your fingernails.
BTW, great collaboration guys.
and payday's on Friday!
I’m so happy to be an electrician. Last week I was in a huge sennebogen crane. The next day I was underground at a limestone mine working on conveyors then I was at a J.C. Penney doing lights then I was at a hospital installing an X-ray machine. Then I was working on a barge on the Ohio. I get to see so much. And learn so much even beyond electrical. I get to see the inner workings of our infrastructure. It is so cool.
Are you an IBEW guy? That's what I'm working towards joining
@@DaSlippyNana yes I am.
I was so glad when I tuned in to this video and saw that this was going to be more of a fun video then a dumb argument. I say both trades are very important and needed occupations. If I was smarter or had some guidance when I was younger, a lot younger then now, I think I would have went into one of these trades. Fixing a persons plumbing or electrical problem and having a good attitude with frustrated customers not only could be profitable but I think personally rewarding if you have the right professional attitude.
I'm an electrician and I watch Roger Wakefield. I care more about the industry than the trade war. They are my coworkers.
The most I liked it was the video editing of this video.👍
Best Collaboration ever
ya'll don't understand how fucking awesome this is !!!!
what a great video!!!!
I'm trying to be an electrician apprenticeship in my hometown of LA 🙌🏼 Thank you for the videos man
Haha, you called LA a town?! My town has about 5,000 people, and it's just right. ✌️
@@PatrickKQ4HBD Yes a town. It's where I grew up
Great video
Bravo gentlemen
I think a really cool video to do would be Electrician VS Elevator Mechanic. The trade are so similar yet so different. I feel like that would be a great video
What a excellent video
Wow two of my favorite people together
Hahaha that was awesome👍
At minimum this video series was entertaining.
One of the things it points out is it never hurts to have "hands on" experience, even if you decide to be a pencil pusher in the chosen field. The books only tell you how to do it right, but never what CAN go wrong when you least expect it. That's where experience comes in... and learning quite often comes from a BAD experience. (the hands on part) As for "problem customers" my favorite line is "I'll see what I can do to make it better (if you will let me) followed by "why don't you show me what's going on." Sometimes you can get a customer to snap back into reality by saying "this is going to take a fair amount of materials / time" then explain to them how they probably don't want to pay the night / weekend rate to do it all now. Right now you just want to solve the emergency, which may be as simple as closing a valve or turning off a breaker. We'll all have clear heads and a game plan in the morning.
Awesome. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
How do you both scare and confuse an electrician……… hand him a broom.
Sparks vs pipes....then the hvac super contractor walk in. Boom just like that hvac is the best lol
Hey...the TH-cam tradesmen Dream Team! I love the it!!!
This was good lol. "I like laying pipe too" 😆
Great drawings.
As an electrician (like many of us here) I just have to vent that IT'S FUCKING AWESOME to get paid just for doing holes, pulling wire and screwing things 😂, sometimes it looks like a joke when the job is so easy hahaha.
I felt this way when i finally landed a big commercial job doing the Calgary airport. Then I got an industrial job and it was a whole other level of damn I made 450 bucks today running a few cables and tie wrapping them down. Also feels good when you are working outside when its usually cold and the sun hits you and your just doing something chill and it's like ah this aint bad at all
another awesome thing is doing resi side job stuff like small jobs like changing lights or plugs for people and they think its all some complicated shit and its really so easy and the same every time $$$
@@soldatheero How do you feel about being an electrician in Calgary nowadays? I was thinking about getting into it after I graduated from high school but was told by many people its been really slow recently
This is actually my least favorite part of the trade. When I got in I like many people thought that electricians were basically magicians and I wanted to learn the arcane arts. I'm a little dissapointed with how little there was to it lol. I wish I'd been a steamfitter :(
@@randeepmatharoo3523 It's slow and not great compared to years ago the gravy train is definitely over but there are still always jobs out there. I have to admit though it seems like there are a ton of unemployed electricians in this province. The industrial sector wage is way too low and the corporations are getting away with it because there are so many industrial guys that want to and are willing to work for too cheap 33 an hour some of them and have to travel on their own dime. Companies like Pronghorn are thriving and pay pretty shit
Eleckchickens > Turd Herders
💯💯💯✅
I have been an electrician since 1982. I now work for a company that is a service company. It's called Hiller Plumbing Heating Cooling and Electric. Our motto on our trucks is (Happy you'll be or the service is free). And many customers take full advantage of it. Even if we do an awesome job.
It is time to change the motto, this isn’t the 80’s anymore people will try to take advantage.
You guys kill the things I enjoy
