Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

Funny Story
Well I was sleeping and I got called in about raw sewage in garage. So I go into garage which is on lower level and we always refer the lower level as basement. Sure enough a lot of sewage water every where. Just above that area is jail cells C and D and also a kitchen and laundry room near. For what ever reason they encased the center beam in 3 layers of 5/8 drywall. The rest of garage is open and drains easy to access.
So I start cutting. I finally find the pipe which is totally destructed coming through ceiling and p trap and about a foot of pipe bad that heads towards doors. So I start taking out a lot more drywall because you need to chisel floor out to get banding off.
I found out it wasn't sewage but the CO's dumped water in floor drain because of sewage smell which they would have since p trap had hole in it.
I texted the plumber I use to let him know. His name is Steve. I changed my hours after 4 hours of sleep so I got to work about 3 pm. I thought I'd text Steve and tell him I was there. He asked me to text him pics since he was in a major city and may be able to grab what he needed.
I sent pics and told him that it is quit a mess but I think I got enough drywall torn out. About 5 min's later I get a call from my next door neighbor who is in Colorado on vacation. Frantic and asking me if his basement is ruined. I said, I'm at work but everything seemed fine when I left.
I am watching his house while he's on vacation. His name is Steve also and I sent the pics of busted pipes, drywall and water to him, lol! He got a good laugh over it. I was running on 7 hours of sleep in 40 or so hours. About 20 min's later Steve the plumber showed up and said, I never got the pics. Had to special order p trap anyway, lol.

Whoops!
We have issues like that at work sometimes because there are people with the same first and last name but at different locations. So, you'll send a meeting invite and a guy on the other side of the country gets it when you really meant to send it to the guy down the hall.
