Working with drywall and shit really fucks my bitch hands up. Causes my cuticles to crack and separate from the nail. How do you manage to keep from getting fucked up yourself?
Wear gloves

Wash your hands often and moisturize them erry day

uhh, why not? are you a neckbeardian butterfingers who loses all manual dexterity when you wear gloves?
>>1035705
no I make rj-45 connectors all day as well
>>1035708
Fingerless gloves. Get your bosses to start ordering rj45 jacks with guide pieces
Use a lot of lotion then I guess
>>1035708
why can't you work all the drywall (cut holes and shit) with gloves then do the cat5 shit afterwards?
Key thing to remember is if anyone sees you wearing gloves, you're a pussy pretty much forever.
Shockingly the most masculine shit to do is stash some good lotion away and use it anytime your hands are dry.
Also, RJ45 and drywall plaster? Nigga that's like making a hammer-wire stripper combo, doesn't make sense.

Nigger I run network cables. You're also right about gloves making you a pussy unless you work with something that will rip your hands are getting spinters or you work with metal.
I try to use that working hands cream that comes in a tube after work. Maybe I shoulD bring some with me and put it on between hand washes
Use the right tools and have a shopvac on hand to suck all the dust up? Aside from the cutting, where are you getting all the dust from?

Celing tiles, dirt, drywall, insulation, anything you find above a celing tile/in a house attic or in a wall. It's a dirty job that doesn't allow for frequent handwashing.
I'm surprised nobody else seems to ever get this issue if they work with their hands.

Nitrile gloves, fingerless gloves. Do all the entraces foe cable with a saw and gloves on, then do the wiring later with nitrile gloves/no gloves.
Pull more slack so you're not doing the jack right in the wall but on the floor. On your knee, or a small work table.

put some vaseline on your nail beds before starting work, heck even chapstick would work just rub it on the same place.
Go to a tack and feed store, buy horse hoof treatments. Put it on your cuticles before work and before you go to bed.

>Aren't an option
Basically on 99.9℅ of contract jobs, if you're not wearing gloves you will be sent off site, so this is absolute bullshit.
>Muh cat 5
Above goes for all trades on site.
You're the one suffering from your own stupidity. No one else.
Just glove up you pussy ass bitch. Fuck anyone who beefs with gloves. Get real gloves you can take off quickly if your can't handle rj45 gloved. Shit ain't hard ya baby bloobloo
