You should try the automation world and see how the stress compares to structural.

Why would it be any different?

Well for one thing, “stress” has an entirely different meaning to both fields.

you cant be all clever with me when i'm under this kind of stress

i had a regression in my feelings of okayness and safety last night.

first, dreaming that i was making out with dave grohl. totes cool

woke up to pee

saw that someone on my street 10 blocks away got their whole house robbed this weekend

fell back asleep 

dream about seeing some people fleeing a scene of some sort, they notice me, threaten me with a gun as i was trying to call police. i drop phone and hold hands up terrified, they covered my windows with black sheets from the outside? then i woke up. like wtf?

Some security advice I received from a friend: keep a canister of wasp killer by your bed. It sprays farther than pepper spray would and blinds the perpetrator.

Pro tip: Wasp killer also kills wasps.

Random but related. I just quit ADT and installed a Ring alarm system. So far so good.

We've had one for several months now.  Only issues are one back door sensor that is occasionally uncooperative, and the motion sensors are too sensitive for big dogs even turned down all the way.  Consequently, the only time we ever set the system to anything other than "home and armed" is when we go on vacation and when the dogs are at the sitters.  If we ever switch to the 24/7 monitoring, we'll have to just deactivate the motion sensors entirely.  I still want to add two hardwired floodlight cameras.

I have Swann wireless cameras at my parent's house and mine. I've been really impressed with the night vision and general reliability for the price.

It is a violation of federal law to use it for any purpose other than killing wasps. It's far better to keep a gun at your bedside anyway.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Well...I mean...you’re not technically wrong.

And that's why its a pro tip.
