Early nominee for the 'Not my job mate' award for 2024
That's not on him. That's on the owner/agent. If the job request doesn't mention the laundry extinguisher, how is he meant to know it's there?
there is no spoon
Can you move the mount up a bit? Can you get the agent to move the mount up a bit? Can you leave the extinguisher on the floor because if there's a decent fire, get down low and gogogo, will lead you to find the extinguisher on the way out.
Oh, you think the tradie didn't notice the drawer issue? That's cute. Of course he noticed. But by 'accidentally' doing precisely what the job sheet asked for (replacing the extinguisher and nothing more), he gets called back a second time. $$$
The obvious old screw holes might be a tiny clue
A fire extinguisher in the kitchen! Fancy plus!!!
Not quite the same, but I’ve got a wok burner that would set fire to the top cupboards if you actually used it
I use my wok burner outside like my Viet friends told me to.
Not portable in this case. I do have a movable induction one from IKEA : house stove deemed unsafe and it took forever to get landlord to replace.
Mine is a cast iron thing plugged into a gas bottle.
What did that cost you?
