Except for the occasional "hoarder", where simply moving something would be like spitting in the ocean, most people I've run across will move their own stuff. But why do they always wait until you get there to do it?

Or "That broken garden rake was my Great Great Grandfathers from Ireland!" Swear to God that happened to me about two years ago. Other than blazing saddles, he was the first black irishman named carter that I have ever met!?

The company I work for has a policy of not touching customer's property in a situation like that. You break it, you bought it.

I move stuff for little old ladies and Gentlemen.

It would still be there leaking... I don't move peoples junk.

Capt. Retard would be moving that old mans stuff with my boot up his ass for not checking the expansion tank.

I didn't ask that, but I have asked if there is a crappy litter box in their work place.

I find situations like this disrespectful. I wonder what the old man did for a live. I guess he thinks our time is not important.

Countless time is wasted waiting or moving stuff that should have been moved when they where waiting on me to ring their door bell.


And they also need to put their dogs in a room that I don't need to be in.

Brilliant. Somebodys' bright idea.

Its in there

Went on a call for a boiler relief valve leaking. Another tech put in the relief valve last week. I guess he thought the relief valve just went bad on its own, because I had to change the expansion tank.
Anyway, the old man customer made me move all his junk, then put it back.
