Comment on How in the hell

  My local sewer guy takes pride in his job. Not only does he care enough to know the entire sewer layout for every lot in town, he also cares enough about it to always provide the customer with a good offer. He just wants it done right. But it doesn’t just stop there. He is also the chairman for the sewer industry in the entire country, giving advice to all the other sewer companies, municipalities and other industries.

  No, he probably doesn’t particularly enjoy hosing down somebody’s fatberg, but him and his guys usually seem to have fun doing it anyway. He gets paid well be too.

  If I got half the pay for having half the fun and being able to take half the pride in what I do, I’d gladly accept the job.

    Well my mum’s boyfriends cousin is a sewer clearer and he says it’s terrible and smells like shit and everybody who says otherwise is lying. Who do we believe?

      Not you.

      My neighbors’ son’s dog walker’s second cousin (once removed) says you’re a liar.

      He said no one. I know one. That’s more than zero.

      Your acquaintance is wrong and should find a different job in the lying business.

        He’s not wrong and has never lied in his life. In fact he took a vow of truth in Tibet.

  You have no explanation or argument, just an appeal to ignorance.

    This isn’t a college class. I’m not writing a senior thesis. I have given an explanation and an argument, you just don’t like it.

  Or maybe, we can automate stuff like that, instead of starving artists.

    If they could automate it, they would have done so already.

      Not at the level of food service industry, cashier’s and the like. Simply cuz automating gutter cleaning doesn’t make capitalists any money.
