Cushy Job

I was a commercial plumber for a spell. Before I became a rock star. Usually we put in new plumbing in schools, offices, etc., but on occasion, we had to do repairs or tie onto a live line. When performing a live tie-on, one must be with the quickness, because water is trickling out and any second you could have someone's present in your lap. Also, one must be with the nimbleness, as the slightest slip could send a spray of water into your face. "Water" that's not fer drinkin. Dig a hole in the hole you're standing in for the water to run into while you're working. You have to work fast. no mistakes. people pooping. Focus. Cut the pipe. Yes. black water speckles your face. Sweet. keep going. no time to wipe off face. slip on rubber bands. ewww. should've worn gloves. no time to think about that now. fight new pipe fitting into place. hands are slippery. fitting falls in the hole. eww. fish it out. hurry. time's a wastin. water's a runnin. poop's a flowin. yes. retrieved it. with the quickness, boy! ew.... too late..........new nickname....................................................turdlap
