Chad Killinger joins the guys this week to talk about a few things, one of them is how Texas legislators killed a mandatory bill that made sure workers received water breaks during a work shift. Does Texas hate water or its workers? 

No, Chad isn't an official host of the show. We honestly didn't expect to have him on as many times as we have but he pays us so much money.

Ever think what we do every day for our customers might actually be super disruptive and a giant ordeal for our customers? We often think nothing of tearing open a wall to relocate a pipe or wiring etc is no big deal because we do it all the time. 

Andy's been tearing up his master bedroom and the bathroom is next. The guys talk about living in a renovation zone and how much it effects everything.

Kyele is 17, recently graduated from high school with high diploma and is looking for a M-F job working with his hands for about $20/hr. 

Does this sound reasonable?  He's 17, how much experience could he have? What would you say to a kid posting on a community bulletin facebook page looking for a lead on a job?
