It's probably harder than cosing SQL, and carries more responsibility.

I've got to agree Blaster. As someone who once flooded their kitchen on a freezing winter's night with the stop-cock seized open, I think PLUMBERS ARE GODS.

The last time I had a plumber round he only worked 2 days a week.
Said he'd rather spend more time with his family, and 2 days was enough to earn £50K a year, so why bother working any harder.
At the time I thought £800 to change a tap washer was bit steep.

do any of them ever turn up on time? Within 1 hour of on time? Even within 2 hours would be good timekeeping compared to that lot!
Disgraceful profession.... that's what a lack of competition does for you! More Polish plumbers, that's what we needTags: None
