― Theorry Henry (Enrique), Thursday, 10 November 2005 16:51 (twenty years ago)

Emptying portable toilets must be 10 times worse than clearing a drain.

I used to work at a lab that did "environmental testing". Most of what we tested was, well, poop. Or at least sewage plant effluent, which mostly consists of poop. That wasn't so bad- the worst part was the smell when we had to bake it. But anyway, there were operators who brought us the samples from the sewage plants. I never met the guy, but there was a story of one operator who was standing over a vat of sewage taking a sample, slipped, and fell in. To a vat of raw sewage.

You want to earn some real money? Start clearing other peoples drains.

What Jim said.
Plumbers are the ones keeping those Caribbean cruise ships afloat. They are paid handsomely so that we aren't engulfed by a tidal wave of our own sewage. And, as anyone who's ever been through a lengthy power outage knows, running water RULES. And HOT WATER!!!! The only way I can get myself out of bed is by visualizing the hot shower and hot coffee to come. Oh thank you Mr. Plumber, superhero for our time!

Plumbers make decent money anyway. And they get laid a lot. Didn't you ever see a porno?

isn't the second part just rephrasing the first?

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 11 November 2005 16:45 (twenty years ago)

Only if we're talking gay porn, bro.
