Plumbers behaving badly
Posted 09-01-2013 at 08:24 PM by Badwolf13
My landlord had the stupid idea to switch out my toilet for a low flush toilet. So the plumber arrived yesterday and I showed him where my bathroom was located. Ten or fifteen minutes go by and I realized that I didn't hear anything coming out of the bathroom. There was complete silence. I'm no expert, but if he is suppose to be replacing my toilet, shouldn't I hear something? Perplexed, I get up and head towards the bathroom when I distinctly heard the sound of toilet paper being unrolled. I stopped in my tracks, and with growing horror, I realize that he was doing a number 2 in my toilet! Then I heard him flush the toilet followed by the sound of tools being used to pry it loose.![EEK!](https://pics3.city-data.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
A few minutes later, he comes out carrying the toilet with this big smile on his face as he nods at me. Maybe I'm over reacting, but I just thought it would have been polite if he had asked me first if he could use my bathroom before taking such liberties. As for the low flush toilet, let me put it this way, it takes 2 flushes just to flush a single sheet of tissue...![Frown](https://pics3.city-data.com/forum/images/smilies/frown.gif)

I can see how you would have maybe felt a little better if he would have asked first.

ROTFLOL Now, thats halarious!!
He had to make sure it 'worked' before he took it out LOL
I agree with you on the low flush toilets, I hate them!
Gimme the five gallon one every time. (I actually tried to find one, but, no go... Seems they must have ditched everyone of those in the landfill).
I wish you well...

That,s the way I fill about those toilets, They should add a bucket for water along with the purchase of the toilet, maybe with the extra water what goes in will also go out,without flushing three or four times.
Or standing there with the plunger in your hands waiting to see if it,s going down or over, I know the thing is supposed to save the user money by saving water but I would rather be able to FLUSH,FLUSH,FLUSH you silly thing just FLUSH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Posted 09-02-2013 at 03:01 PM by sizzlenana -
Always ask for a licensed plumber. There are so many handyman out there. Most of which have little skills.
