Gotta communicate about that stuff though. Not sure how your partner is on that, but mine is terrible unless I say something. Then when she doesn't do it to my level of satisfaction I just do it myself and tell her to handle other things around the house she can handle if she complains.

Oh I try haha. It's like pushing a wet noodle. Prodding usually just leads to more frustration on both ends. I should've pulled the plug and hired packers last minute when nothing really got started that first week.

Seriously though, fuck this stuff. Only went with UF because I assumed THHN-2 wire wasn't rated for wet environments like THWN wire is. Turns out THHN-2 is short for THHN-THWN-2, it's simply certified for both. I suppose it's not too bad if you're crazy enough to direct bury it and aren't dealing with 6awg wire. A lone 6 gauge wire is unwieldy enough, putting 3 of them and a ground into what can only be described as melted PVC is a nightmare.
