Downpipe at the p's fixed! Took about 2 mintues. Saved a few dollaridoos there.
A few days ago when I was there I said 'hey I'm going to try and fix it this way". He cracked the shits 'I MAKE THE DECISIONS AROUND HERE". Dude has acute NPD but there are work arounds. So I said okay you do it. So I pissed off down the bellarine.. Get a call:
Me: How's that pipe going Him: The pipe has fallen 10cm I can't do it. Getting a plumber in a few weeks.
I get back, go over today (while he's away).. Turns out he pulled the down pipe down and it disconnected from the gutter. I chuck it back on try and recreate what he did and he must've been trying to climb the thing. Easy fix.
So now I'm putting a mock invoice in his letter box:
Call out fee: $200 Labour: $300ph x 0.033 = $10 Materials: 4cm of 100mm PVC: $0.5 Use of toilet: -$1 Stealing a glass of wine: -$9
He will hate that. Apparently he spent an hour trying to do it.
He may hate it but admit it, you love it.
Dunno if you're AFAB or not but it's fucking spectacular when you pull this shit on a FIL as a woman XD
I would imagine that'd be twice as satisfying heh.
