You could cook your own lunch the night before. The only reason you don't is because the value isn't there for you. Your ability to empathize with someone with a different skills set and values is impressive.
The real joke is you're comparing the necessity of eating to having a wall outlet.
No, I'm comparing doing work yourself to doing work yourself.
If anything you are right though. Eating is so much more important than electrical work. It's ridiculous that you don't prepare all your own food and take care of your body better, but you'll spend the time to wire outlets, which are so much less important. You're always right. Your priorities are clearly the right ones and anyone else doing anything different is straight retarded.
How much is time worth? I know how to do electrical stuff, but for what Opaque had done I would pay $65 to have it done by a pro any day. Believe it or not, I pay people to do game mod and repairs sometimes too since the money I pay them is less valuable than the time it would take to do it myself.
Don't be so hard on him, Opaque. Not believing in services and doing your own electrical, automotive, barber, medical, etc. work must be exhausting. I'm sure he's just tired.
That's my biggest thing. I know exactly what my time is worth and between my time and material costs, not all jobs are worth it to do myself.
I work my real job instead of doing everything myself. I do things myself when they are worth the money. I could hire a pool guy and spend twice as much a month to have my pool be the same condition. Or I could spend ten minutes a day checking it myself, save money even with my time investment and have people ask who my pool guy is because everything is so fucking perfect and feel awesome when they do. Some jobs you do yourself and it makes sense. Some you don't. No one on this forum makes their own clothes and builds all their own furniture. It's wierd that this electrical thing is such a hot button.
Or if Steam card are involved.
