They shouldnt be flushed. I dont care where you live. if you have a septic system its even worse. It causes problems in the citys lines and lift stations. Thank you for understanding now.

Too much flux causes the copper to remain clean. Not developing the protective patina. It is then over time eaten away by the chemicals in the water. That's what I was taught. |

They seem to get stuck around here. And it gives me the opportunity to be real condescending. |

I retrieved at least 4 and 1 sanitary wipe on Thursday. The owner, a man, got on the office intercom and said to his two story office full of women employees "The plumber is standing in my office right now and informs me that he just retrieved 4 tampons and a sanitary wipe from the sewer! Now I thought we had discussed this and it was going to stop! Knock it off 'cause the next time it happens, you're all going to pony up the $400 to pay the bill!". So there are like 2 guys that work in his office and the rest are women (I don't know a dozen or so). One of the guys happened to be standing at the bosses door waiting to talk to him when he made this announcement. After the announcement the guy says "Is that everybody? Dudes too?" The boss picks up the intercom again and says "That's everybody except for dudes!"

Hospitals use disposal units in their biopsy rooms (officially tagged "Gross Cutting Room"). All kinds of pleasant "tissues" are sent down the drains this way. Blockages are common.

Yeah, I'd really like to see that one! He would be slapped with a lawsuit so fast it would make his head spin. I can see it now under cross-examination - "Mr. Bossman, exactly how did you determine who was flushing and who wasn't?" ![]()

The whole time I'm thinking "thanks a lot man! Everybody here has been pretty nice to me until now. Now I'm going to get dirty looks and a hard time." The whole thing was funny to me including this: there is an upper parking lot which is where I had parked. The stair case is directly across from his office door which is the way I would have to go to get back to my truck. Before I could get from his office doorway to the stairs I overheard one of the women from downstairs already blaming all the women from upstairs. I don't know why I did this 'cause I could care less and I am not characterized by pot stirring, but when I hit the top of the stairs there were 3 cubicles with 3 women in them and before I could even think about it, I blurted out that "the downstairs crew is already blaming the upstairs crew" and laughed and left. Shame on me . |
