From the drunk at the end of the bar. I know how to do lectrical work. Just keep them beers comin and I'll get this place wired up fer ya. MC cable, Romex, SO cord, whatever it takes I can get er done.

Pictures from the bar. If you think the panel looks bad you should see the rats nest in the attic. 30amp breakers for all the circuits. The owner of this night club doesn't want any inspectors poking around in here either. I've been called out to this place because they've had smoke coming out of some switches one of their drunk customers tried to replace.

General contractor too cheap to hire a real electrician. Supposedly permits were pulled and he had a licensed electrician do the work and it passed inspection. I like the way he crammed two wires under one screw terminal on the receptacle and left the other screw terminal empty. All the receptacles were done this way. In the second photo they bumped the wall out to create a bench with a lid so toys could be stored in it. Just bust a hole in the wall, splice into the existing romex without a box and run the romex under the carpet to a new outlet located in the front of the bench. Don't worry about the kids storing their toys in there with that mess. Serveral hidden splices in the walls and ceiling. Sheetrock had to be torn out and everything redone. I forgot I was the one that bashed the hole in the wall with my hammer to uncover the splice.
