You may remember this photo where they cut our "copper" out because "It was in our way" and "We're running THREADED pipe, you can always move copper..."
Well they're at it again, this time they crushed our flex flat [no airflow whatsoever] and barbequed it sweating in their "copper", but luckily the head carpenter alerted us so we could make a special trip out there to fix it before it got sheetrocked! I wonder how it would look for the plumber if someone turned on the water and NOTHING came out!?

Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things, I am tempted to think there are no little things!

I worked with a guy who got so mad at a plumber that he fashioned a foam gun out of some "Great Stuff" and 3/8 copper. He went around the house and filled up any trap he could find. I told him that was hurting the homeowner not the plumber. We go back a month later to hang registers and the plumber was cutting drywall and removing PVC pipes filled with expandable foam. Builder blamed it on "vandals". Luckily, I changed crews and learned the trade from a pro. Still laugh every time I see a plumber nail a washer box to a wall.

someone dumped a big container of chaulk box chaulk in our trunkline on 15 ton unit. when we did start-up it was something to see. purple chaulk coming out of every grille.
they drilled holes in the copper lines in the attic.
and cut all the electrians home runs off about an half inch above the conduit at the bottom of the breakerbox.
problely just a joke not revenge. if we would of found out who did it we would have feed them to the gators out back.

Man the ideas you guys are giving me ....wow now monday will be a fun day....
The one i did that got the guy pissed off the most was to put never sieze ..you know the purple sticky crap , under the door handels on all his door. He got the crap on his hands they went to get in another door to get rags and what a mess he was trying to get it off for days...
Luckely i wasnt the only one using never sieze on the job lol
Another onme is to drill small holes in the joints of plumbers copper line joints before they pressurize them....make them think that they cant make a weld to save their ass

That one has always been a good "quicky" prank.
I liek to zip the panduit strap on the shaft. THEN wrap it around and tuck in it. That way it don't come loose and make the racket until he's going faster down the road.
Did that to an installer in Payson about 7 yrs ago.
He was so mad he would stalk me on my jobs and removed my schrader cores from my tires about three times!
Thank gawd a A/C tech has new cores and nitro!

The real way to stop jobsite BS is to ask the other offending trademan wether he prefers to be delivered to the hospital or the morgue. Make sure you have a big pair!
