I have a shitty job ahead of me... (literally)

I have been wondering to myself why it smelled so bad when I would walk outside lately. I dismissed it, thinking it was a dead animal under the house or just from all the rain we have been having. Well tonight my g/f asks why it is so wet underneath the house (a raised house.)

I look under with a flashlight and guess what I see... A piece of PVC pipe disconnected from the rest of your septic system, along with a bunch of human waste underneath my house!

Just what I want to fucking do, crawl through our human shit in order to fix it! I'm just glad no one else has used our bathroom lately...

damn dude that suck i use to be a plumber i feel ya on that

sounds like fun

lmao.... i'd be callin out a plumber... fuck all that shit... literally.. o.0

I have to laugh, but that's so awful! Ewwww I'd plot another way to get rid of it other than garbage bags...

get a plumber, its bad enough cleaning kitty litter

LOL, how much will it cost me to get you to fix this. :D

What pisses me off is it will be so simple to fix, I may need to get a new piece of PVC (I'm not sure if it cracked or anything.) But there is no way to avoid the mess that has already been caused.

I respect plumbers. I have had several people suggest that as a career option, saying you can make pretty good money. I just can't see myself doing that everyday. I'm a bit germaphopic(sp), and would not be able to deal with that stuff on a daily basis.

What made you change careers?

Plumbers are expensive and it is a very simple job. Just highly disgusting...

shit, that disgusting thing is enough for me o.0 lol... couldn't pay me to go crawling around in shit... fuck i start gagging when the baby has a particularly bad diaper or i walk into the bathroom and it looks like someone poured chocolate milk, melted chocolate, a can of roasted peanuts and a can of corn in it... o.0 that's just sight (btw, that's what i sometimes find in public restrooms lol.. i'd fuckin flip if i walked in my own bathroom and saw that)

i even gag if i step in a pile of cat shit... ~shudders~ yeah, i'd probably quit that job the very first job i was sent to do....

for the last few months ive been working with my uncle as a commercial plumber. ill tell you right now that shit is a huge paying business and im proud to be working it.

let me try to spit this out all high. (4 gravity hits so i cant possibly use any tomorrow...homework) so we mostly dug huge ditches and changed sewers or water lines,weve changed cleanouts a million times. and weve pumped the nastiest feces and etc in the whole earth from a 100% mexicanj trailer park in the middle of nowhere in the desert. But if we didnt want to touch all that we always thought of a smart idea .

so lets try here

when ur crawling underthere why dont you drag a tarp under the with you + long rubber gloves. we have both in our plumbing truck. wanna borrow it?

up up away

Damn we coulda used this more then a few times pumpin shit from one sewer and lettin it back out at the other place..

a cheap swimming nose plug would protect from the stench.

and would it be bad to breath from your mouth? no idea...

Good luck, remember, we're all counting on you!

It's only human bio--waste, really nothing but your plants and neighbors, dont take it too personally, my uncle had the wonderfull job of stirring the shit in drums in vietnam while it was burning. He told me the story many a time, and now I guess it's not so bad..... or maybe I'm just damaged goods.

ncnavguy thats disgusting. get a plumber, i'm the same way as slipknotpycho.

the smell wont go away just because you fixed the pipe you need to wash all the shit away, use a hose or buckets of water something like that to flush it away and you will be able to fix the pipe without bathing in your own shit:D

personally i'm not into fucking shit, i prefer girls... or women, but not shit.... but whatever floats your boat dude :p

....


Shitty!

Just cover yourself in garbage bags and go under man! :p

That would suck though. What would suck even more is being a plumber who has to do this shit everyday.

Go get youself a Tyvex auto-body painting suit that you can wear while you're under there... and don't forget a respirator... you don't want to inhale/ingest any coliform bacteria, seriously.

Hurry it up i need to POOP......

I worked in a apt complex as the plumber... the complex had bad sewers that backed up constantly... the past supers went and opened the cleanout caps in the basements and crawlspaces so the backups would not come up in the toilots... Fun job with my waders and a 2" pump...

Jag get a bag of Lime and spread on the waste it will make it a little better to deal with...

If I were you I would take a scalding hot shower afterward. I can't deal with things that smell bad

The key to dealing with waste is to do it fast... it becomes more toxic with time...

I will get some lime than, as for time, I have no clue how long it has been broken. My guess is it's been broken a few days, I hope I don't notice differently when I climb under the house. I noticed today though, that it is starting to flood into our yard. I will prob poor lime on it and than try and shovel as much of I can up into a bucket or something.

I wish I had noticed it when it first happened, I checked again today and it looks like there is a lot more paper than waste, so that seems positive. I should be able to fix it tomorrow. My g/f's dad is coming over tomorrow to help too. I'm sure he will have some good ideas as well.

pick up some bleach too and flush it first,,,it will cut the smell and disinfect some...

jagged its a bad job.. i have done plenty of them doing rehabs and whatnot. Best thing i can tell you is to make sure you get a fan going while youre under there. I wear rubber gloves under my work gloves and a mask if its leaking. Get you some throw away tarps to lay on etc. When your done you may want to cover the area with lime if its a dirt rea or even dig it out and bury the old soil thats there with some clean stuff. Either way the job sucks. I had one down in Evansville indiana i was doing and the damn pipe broke when we were taking it out and guess what? Me and my bro ended up getting a shit shower..it sucked. Some i have done were so bad i literally had to put toothpaste under my nostrils to kill off some of the odor i was breathing..camphor works better but toothpaste will do. good luck

rent a shopvac

I can remember as a youth my dad teaching me basic plumbing. Its not that we we couldn't afford a plumber, my dad is the type of guy that doesn't understand why a man with two hands and ten fingers can't do the same work. Its principles.

Yeah, I can remember cutting PVC and diggin ditches.

how about getting a 5 meter roll of pvc about 1.2 meters wide? surely you couldnt just kay it on the shit fix the prb and hose the mess away after? i mean your the man here you know what the job looks like but just thought id try lol


yeah another 3am stoned as fuck post

dude call a fucking plumer lol

You need a drain cleaning company that does plumbing on the side... bigger companies will do it cause they can send the new guy... I was once the new guy and I was sent to a house to change 3 toilot seats... The people were from a country that squated instead of sat,,,what a disgusting place that was... all the guys were laughing at me when I got back to the shop...
