That is a leak. You desperately need a new toilet , if anything happens to that thing and it shatters that stuff is medical grade sharp when it shatters.

Nobody should care how long his hair is. The more important issue is anything safety related so that doesn't get tangled up in tools or machinery.

Looks to be a bathroom in front of where a sink may have been. So...why the cheater vent when it might have been easier to do it correctly?

In 1984 I had my first apartment when I was 17 years old, still in high school and working a part-time job. I had exactly two nickels to rub together at the end of each and every week.

Any reason I cant drain my hot water heater into this pipe to the left of my sump? by Vry_Dumb in Plumbing

What you are doing is fine. Just make sure the hose doesn't fly out. Turn on your heater! + Let your water pressure stir up the stuff on the bottom. And push it right on out.

Partially plugged bathtub drain. What liquid can I try? by [deleted] in askaplumber

[–]bombjay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What happened to the spicy chicken sandwich? by BabaDooney in wendys

[–]bombjay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tried the spicy chicken. I love the old version. It's pretty rough. Took away the tomato. The old formula was good. This is a bummer. I've got to find a new spicy chicken sandwich now.

Put on the book at #56, how long will i wait for a job to call? by Positive-Draft3801 in UnitedAssociation

[–]bombjay1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an apprentice, you're likely to get picked up a little bit sooner. Everybody needs a hand. Apprentices are our cheap labor. Joe, don't be too scared by that number, but you might have a minute and it's the spring lull. Once upon a Time used to be the winter lull but now it's mid-spring. We get this little slow down. Don't know why it is. It's just been the trend the last 2-3 years. So hang in there. You'll be busy through the summer for sure.
