I've done some stupid things but pooing myself in front of a customer isn't one, brilliant!

I was doing a bathroom fit a few years ago but turned out to be a job from hell! Everything went wrong that could though it looked a straight forward fit. Bath out, shower in....simples!

I started raggling the wall to put a cold & hot feed in for a new mixer shower. The walls are fully made of plaster. Inbetween both sides of the wall is like a honeycomb plaster. Very brittle too.
I started raggling with a pad saw as it was very easy to cut when all of a sudden, a huge chunk of plaster fell through into the hallway.

I couldn't think how to rectify this until I had a brain wave!

An access hatch for isolation valves. Originally I had put the isolation valves under the sink.
I told the customer that as the bathroom was so small, I couldn't put the isolation valves anywhere else.

Oh the shame!!

Who's going to write the book then? 'Confessions of a Tiler'

Another thread has prompted me in to this.

This confession is less of a school boy error but more a lack of experience

Just a year after I started out doing refurbs I got a job fitting a new kitchen for one of my best mates uncles (My mate still works for me to this day) Of course this included the tiling which were chamfered metro brick bond tiles, In my quest for perfection and knowing trim would never sit flat against the chamfered edges I decided to mitre the tiles in to the window reveals.

If the truth be told I admire my young self to go to the trouble but sadly my in-experience meant although my mitres were perfect, the ceramic edge meant they were razor sharp!

Fast forward a year and I’m in the pub with my best mate’s old man and he asks me to pass the cheese?? "What the hell are you talking about Russ??" Turns out that since I finished, the uncle had taken to grating his cheese on my dangerously sharp mitres to highlight my faux pas. It got so bad at one point that complete strangers (although not strangers to my mates old man) would come and say "I've been told you're the man to speak to about cheese graters" wink. wink, nudge, nudge.... bas***ds!

15 years later I still get asked to pass the cheese by the mate’s old man. 15 years! and still no sign of dementia no matter how hard I pray

Who's going to write the book then? 'Confessions of a Tiler'

Would it be based on the 1970's films Confessions of a .............. starring Robin Asquith as they had very little to do with work but plenty to do with exploits of the female gender!
