Worse than any of these things surely is the use of 6mm earth sleeve on a 1mm CPC

I hate it when people leave too much cable behind sockets.
Why can’t they cut it back to about 2 inches?

Google suggests 'deduction' rather than dedution?

People paying 500k for a house... but don't want to pay more than £200 for alarm/CCTV to protect it...

Telling the customer to move the cat litter tray ,when over flowing with S##t in the kitchen or dogs steeling your tools from a open tool box .my list could go on for ever .ps no cup tea when i walk in over the front door .and no biscuits .

Is that cup of tea and a biscuit in the same house as the cat and dog issues Buzz?

The IET - it's jobs for the boys, and the manufacturers are having to much input in my view.

Messy DBs where you have to diss six ccts just to find the N and CPC without getting the wander lead out.

Supposed reputable brands dumbing down their products at every opportunity until their once decent gear is tatty tat.

PIN check at Screwfix for click n collect orders. You know who the feck I am!

BQ, BG - General and Gas.

Sorting out shiet SWA connections. Invariably it's too short to easily fix. Or you have to twist into unimaginable positions to score through the steel with you hacksaw.

Customers who think I am some sort of credit broker.

Under cabinet kitchen lights where you have to adopt some kind of yoga / limbo dancing position to install.

The ever increasing size of the certs. Particularly the endless tick boxes.

There's probably more..

Folks who watch over your shoulder all the time...
and make helpful comments like
"Oh, so you don't double the ends over, then?"

or, yesterday, while I was twisting the ends of fine-stranded to terminate..."Oh, are you left-handed? You must be, cos I would twist the other way"

My favourite, from a "plumber"...
"Yes, these push-fit connections are brilliant, but those pipe inserts are ridiculously expensive...I never use them"

Me: "Get the f**k out of my bathroom!"

Thought being a Pirate that you would appreciated the water feature,

where you buy any chance standing over the plumbers shoulder tutting...........

Just pull the cables back and cable tie them to the central heating pipes.

I had an old lady stood behind me with a flashlight whilst i was in the board this week. Didnt need it but thought id let her feel useful...until she rested her head on my shoulder...
