Confessions of an Electrician...

So while we’ve not been able to log into the community (you can do so now if you didn’t already know) I’ve been keeping myself out of mischief Blush by going through some of the discussion topics on the old Wiring Regs forum and came across this one: Walking off site where some of you were sharing stories about your experiences with client's pets while on the job. 


So I thought it would be a bit of fun to ask you to share some of your funny/bizarre or just weird stories (keeping it relatively clean and protecting the privacy of others please!) from any jobs you’ve been on or done.


… And I’ll send some swag to the author of the story that gets voted the ‘Most helpful/liked’ from the community so don't forget to hit that 'Good Answer' link on any that make you chuckle! (Log in required)

  • No wonder that I am losing weight! Plenty of tea at daughter's, but a corned beef sarnie at lunchtime and perhaps a Tunnock's tea cake or packet of Cadbury's buttons to follow.


    Sparkingchip's posting reminded me of working as a relief postman. Drive to sorting office (meters free until 08:00). Collect mail. Drive home. Read newspaper whilst Mother cooked breakfast. Eat breakfast. Do round. Cycle back to sorting office. East breakfast. Do afternoon round. Go home. Eat lunch. By far the easiest job in my life, but please note that the GPO definitely sweats is workforce these days.
