Market I have my masters in another state. Im not competent but I do have influental parents who did not want me to be 35 and living at home. On my 18th birthday my dad bought me a set of SAMONSITE and an EPA card, bribed a proctor and wished me good luck in life.

How old are you anyway, GNG?
.........You're lucky, for my 18th I got my clothes set on the back porch and found the locks changed on the house when I got home.......at least the old man was nice enough to leave the porch light on for me so I could get all my sh@t without fumbling around in the dark.

Buying guages just to "have them" seems like a waste of money sounds like. I frown upon people whom don't know what the guage is telling them, or think the guage tells them what everything the system is doing. Let alone if they have their certification. Understand the cycle, enough said.

I'm all for learning, if I wasn't clear enough on that. I'm saying learn, don't be like the guy in a post that "works on ice machines and commercial refrigeration..." like I read in a post earlier where he asked what "normal pressures are" where and had no clue how to use a T-P chart. Customer will get what they pay for. I'm going to leave it there.

Well then, be a part of the solution..........don't just sit and B!tch about the problem
I quite possibly came up through the ranks with you (or a guy just like ya).
Instead of answering my questions..albeit dumb at the time.....I got beat over the head enough times until I finally crawled into a shell and just figured alot of crap out on my own.
I learned a ton of stuff wrong, and picked up some really bad habits that took a long time to "undo".
Everybody's gotta learn sometime........without needing to be made to feel like a dumbass for carrying a set of guages and not having a Master's degree to go with it.
I work on ice machines............other than soft serves, IM's are that hardest for me - not that the rest of this stuff is easy

yeah, very true. I get a tad upset when professional techs don't have enough work because joe blows company has a guy with a guage and no clue whats going on doing PM work. I'll glady help with the problem, but don't expect me to cheer and agree, that a guy working on ref by himself, without a clue, is okay.

the guy with the gauges said "...my suction is OK", I looked at my gauges and didn't see "OK" anywhere, so I checked my PT chart, again no "OK"
he asked me for help but I didn't know what OK meant, and he didn't know what the pressure was. kind of a dead end! So I asked myself, what is he doing with the gauges?
