    Default Not a good start to a career

    It's not just the DIY plumbers who make mistakes.

    Being his first day on the job you wouldn't really call him an experienced plumber. A DIY'er would probably have more experience than him.

    I do know of a plumber in Tamworth that set a light to that cellulouse fibre insulation in a roof while he was soldering with a blow torch. He was lucky to get out alive and the fire did $75,000 worth of damage and that was 20 years ago.

    Have to wonder what the employer was thinking letting a first dayer use a blow torch?
    Have a nice day - Cheers
