UNLESS you personally are a plumber, in which case plumbers are awesome - salt of the earth etc.

pfffffffffffffft

that's Sally's line. But she'd also do this:

and I'd personally do this:

but not to the plumber, tough, right. sadly i do NOT have any emoticons for what i would do to the plumber...

what did he do?

oh, he yelled at my GF.

or, not really. oh, it's hard to explain.

your fiancee? Who is like 13 months pregnant with TWINS!!!??

but basically yesterday's plumber said that it was an outside problem with the main building pipe.

so we called the building management and his contractor is saying that it was in our appartment...

and telling my.... yes very pregnant GF.... that she should of KNOWN somehow that yesterday's plumber was.... crap.

except he didn't say crap. he said soemthing else.

we need karlski to come around with Charlie Chainsaw.

mm. guh. anyway. *throws hands up in despair* basically the issue is that neither plumber wanted to do any work.

and nobuddy wanted to pay them, either, right?

which they wouldn't anyway because they all bring along migrant tamil workers to do the actual plumbing.

(meaning the building owner(

well, no we would of paid yesterdays guy had he actually plumbed!!

but, mostly it's between the landlord and the building management. who don't want to accept any of it.

of saying summat like "this too shall pass," but then realizes you'll need your plumbing fixed before that's true.

*giggles* according to the management it's now fixed. according to my GF it's still slow... i think it's fixed.

i'll see when i get home.

*nods*

guh. sorry, this is very dull. i'll get back to pretending to work now. *hugs you* by which he means

*smiles at you* by which she means

*smiles back* 'k. by mumski. *kicks plumber one last time and leaves*

plumber the look and says good night! *goes to bed*

So wait, Jason, do you sit at your computer in class and plurk while the students do busywork?

hope it's fixed jason! it's very frustrating when something so trivial turns in to something

.... not actually IN CLASS. normally. but, okay, i teach a maximum of THREE CLASSES a day!!

in the uk i taught a MINIMUM of FOUR, and most days i taught FIVE. it's really different. and also MINDLESS...

... because i only teach lower school.

now i've had the landlord calling me telling me i have to bear the cost... have agreed to pay half. if my GF goes into pre-term labour...

... i shall SUE. someone. probably the plumber.

s will not be too late
