turning up on site to find you have no toilet because the previous tenant has trashed the place, then having to knock on the neighbours door when your boss has upset them by hammering and drilling at 7am!

Shops that don't sell sandwiches past 2pm
customers that don't offer you a cuppa!!!!

What you mean they aren,t just to make stripping easier? well you learn something everyday lol

 

[Guest111]

my old boss, we had mobiles but sometimes they didn,t work so I had a pager and it used to vibrate somehow he always paged me just as I touched something big in a panel, you know it,s dead but the vibration of the pager still makes you jump.also the prat who rang up after I installed a large cable to his garage saying that his rcd kept tripping,asked what he had done he said nothing couldnt understand it as tests all ok several hours later find a dodgy teasmade in bedroom.tested it and guess what? faulty said he found it in loft after tidying up and decided to use it as it brought back memories!

 

[Kiers1970]

Haha true, how come something always goes bang elsewhere on site just as you are cutting a known dead cable, like the joiners using a nail gun, still makes me jump when not warned..(never are haha)

 

[SparkyDips]

people who still say 'Ring Main' :ciappa:

and how did we forget ceiling grid tiles which have the metal retaining clips making it impossible to lift without cracking them and cutting yr fingers!!!
