Was on a regular site today. The only other trade in the house were the two sparks doing their second fix. Thought this summed their day up well:
7.30am: Apply hair gel and navy trousers.
8.30am: Tune site radio to Radio 1, even though another station is already on.
10.30am: Despite having a full house to do, insist that you need to work where the tiler is.
10.35am: Wait until the tiler has gone for tiles and set your ladder in the shower tray.
10.50am: Leave all cores and wire cuttings lying where they drop, ideally over the tiler's freshly brushed floor.
12am: Isolate power with no warning or alternative, say it'll be on again after lunch if anyone dares ask.
1.30pm: Set ladder on freshly laid tiles.
3.15pm: Tell tiler that his tiles have moved (after setting).
4.00pm: Remove the wet saw from the tiler's extension lead and plug in charger.
4.30pm: Strip all cable for scrap and leave all sleeves on the ground, along with related packaging, cardboard boxes etc.
5.00pm: Prepare for more complete disregard on site tomorrow as the Hilti goes into the van.
What is it with sparks? Surely the most obnoxious trade going.
