Remember that funny story about the (nice) guy who... well, the guy from this thread?

Bumped heads again Monday. I get a call from the boss to go over to the next sixplex, same project, to button up some minor violations for a final. I actually roughed the unit in question, and was not around to trim it.

Anyway, the boss says there's two items on the ticket: There was no strap on the riser at the service (including the two neighboring units, which were "passed with corrections" that were never corrected), and "No pullchain in maintenance room."

To which I adroitly replied, "Huh?" :(

On top of that, so completely unwilling to admit when someone's got his number! :eek:
 
Re: The I Am, Volume II

I guess I'll add my story . Roughed in addtion and remodel last week. Called for inspection on Weds to set it up for Fri. Ok. Inspector shows up Thursday saying he isn't coming out in the snow Fri. All that is left is one wall in kitchen, wires are run and boxes mounted. Inspects rest of house and all is fine. Most guys would sign off at this point. He didn't. Said he'd be back beginning of week. Mon no. Tues am no. Call tues pm, "My truck crapped out maybe be by Thurs". I tell him ok but it will be boarded weds so won't be much to see. He sounds dumbfounded but i tell him again and remind him of his commitment to come Friday (snow day) then Monday. He says he'll see what he can do. :roll:

By the way he lives on the same street as the job.

"THE I AM"


George, you are too funny :D . You must not get much sleep thinking these things up. It is great for a good laugh and sometimes I can't stop chuckling.

Maybe the next sheet of paper should have the application for reading classes at the local college. ;)

I would go and find the britest lights I could find, like maybe those 1500 watt halogen floods and mount about four of them around water heater and four around the furnace, then sit back and watch when he throws the switch.
Then ask can he read the label NOW! :eek:

"to rip out their water heater in the biannual Water Heater Removal Triathlon"

Spectacular!
