A day in the life of a spark

[thompsonbrown]

Personally I have found plumbers to be worse in my experience

You would hate me then Qualified Plumber & Electrician But not a qualified tiler.:sofahide: could it get any worse.

Ha ha I loveeeee sparky's and plumbers just not the ones I've met ha ha

 

[Time's Ran Out]

I don't think it's fair just to pick on sparks!
It's the attitude of all trades that come into my space that gets my blood to boil. Conservatory lads asked to plug into my extension yesterday and within 2 hours they'd blown the power, rerouted the source and cut me off! A few choice words later and normal service was resumed.
Everyone just looks after themselves these days and I'am afraid it's making me even grumpier than I was 40 years ago.
If the plumber gets in my way tomorrow like today , I may even start drinking tea!

Last year I was on a job with some kitchen fitters including a plumber & spark. Every single time I went outside to cut tiles or mix up new adhesive the idiots kept changing channel on my Makita to Radio 1 and winding the volume right up! I resorted to unscrewing the aerial and plugging in my iPhone blasting out 80's albums for a couple of days!

That's just downright cheeky!!! Definitely like TJ says, it's everyone for themselves nowadays. ;(

It's got to the point where I automatically get in bad form when I see another trade regardless who they are coming onto a job. Especially at 9 am when you've enjoyed the peaceful ambience of your own making for an hour previous.. I find though if I can strike up conversation first and meet them head on it helps establish a bit of parity and understanding. I feel like 36 going on 76 lol

On a side note, ever seen a painter without a moustache?

There's been a ugly, moody bloody plumber in the room today.

That will be me then!! :smilewinkgrin:
