found two perfectly preserved (and completely dried out) oranges and a pepsi can with a pull top in an access panel of a hi rise office building. the building was built in 1973. i guess it was somebodies lunch during construction. the best thing i ever found was an american standard cap on top of an air handler in an attic. i left it there accidently 6 years before. 140 degree attic during the summer, i wasn't interested in going back for it at the time!

Pound of pot in an old paper bag.
Should have seen the kids red face and sweating when he came down into the basement to see us working in the basement.
I think he thought the mouse trap at the access was going to scare his granma from going into the crawl space.
She must not of told him about us coming to replace the furnace.
should have turned him into his granma but I thought him having to clean his shorts out from having us laugh at him was enough to scare the craaaa..... well you know

Found on Job
During a preventive maintenance visit, I found an old rubber enema bag next to an RTU. What the heck? Don't know why it was there, how it got there. But I stayed away from the nasty thing. Gross and very weird.

My helper and I were doing an inside changeout in an apartment complex near a local college. He found a bong behind the air handler. I gave it to a police department to put on display with all of the peraphenalia they confiscated off of people.

Hey-if any of you guys would rather have some beer money (rather than the dusty cans/bottles,etc) drop me an email.

Was the six foot bong purple with a huge bowl on it?

$20,000 in 20's in the rafters of a restaurant basement.
When I finished the job I told the owner that he should change his hiding place because I didn't want to get blamed for it if it disappeared.
He told me that if he didn't trust me I wouldn't have been working for him.
