Participant28 actually.
Been to some unhealthy dumps in my time but whilst crouching (no kneeling clean trousers) looking at a machine today I noticed a maggot pupae on the worktop amongst all the other filth ๐ฏ
how do they live like that.

I had one a few months back. A call where the inlet hose was leaking. House was a bit of a $h!tholยฃ but I carried on regardless. The weird thing was the hose was leaking in the middle, not at either end. Anyway, I changed over the hose & as I was testing it, the man of the house, an African gentleman, asked what was the cause of the leak. I pointed out the problem. He looked & calmly announced:
“Oh, that’ll be the rat.” ๐ฏ
Oh thats ok then. For a moment I was worried it might be something serious. ๐ฟ

Had a call a few months ago to a top of the range Siemens F/F, huge M/C in a house full of Somali`s.
Under warranty with a compressor rogered. :rolls:
Too many cock roaches for me, had to ring office to refuse repair as they don`t pay me for those conditions.
Had to return after Social Services (Who supplied appliance) arranged for pest removal.
Pest removal though didn`t do a good job though, the pests where still there, but at least the roaches had gone.
What I don`t get is why if you`ve left a third world s99 hole do they still live as if there still there.
I guess the third world is a crap hole cos they like it. ๐ฅ
