As a service plumber years ago, it didnt happen often but sometimes you would come to a job or neighborhood that just felt off or had people going out of their way to seem sketchy. On those calls we just drove on buy, and found some sort of reason to reschedule in perpetuity.

[@robertkubrick3738]

As a plumber, one day I had a call to a lets call it value priced apartments for a water leak. It was some damage that started 20 years before when the excavation for the pool snagged a 2-1/2 inch copper water line. I had to shut the water off to repair it and drain the water down. After about 45 minutes of the water being shut off 1 had 3 gang members from 3 different gangs come to tell me I had to turn the water back on. As I was thinking to myself I really have a knack for bringing people together, I mean they at least agreed on this one thing, I told them that I would not be turning the water back on until it was repaired as it takes a couple hours to drain it down.

[@AutoHoax]

@robertkubrick3738 as a plumber I learned over the years about shutting the water down, that telling people was a mistake. I would just grab my tools and material and then shut the water off and start working. When people would come to bitch about the water being off and ask if I knew something about it I would say "Yeah I JUST got called out here to get the water going again. I'm trying to figure out what's happening. I'll let you know when it's back on" The JEDI MIND trick of Plumbers was way more effective. When I tried to be nice and let everyone know the water was gonna be off soon for a couple hours, all I'd get was STATIC. ONE thing to remember is ya have to lock the shutoff valve or have someone stand guard so the one person who knew about the shutoff valve. Sometimes just taking the handle OFF worked. I have been blasted and flooded out by forgetting this one part.

[@robertkubrick3738]

@@AutoHoax I notified the manager, the others found out by it being off. It just sucked that I had nowhere with a valve to shut off the majority of the complex. The pipe was 2-1/2 inch and I didn't have a Jet Sweat in that size and neither did the plumbing supply, It was going to take hours to drain down after I cut it.

[@AutoHoax]

@robertkubrick3738 Yeah, that's a difficult one. I remember the day I bought my first jet sweat kit it was like a miracle. Then when pro press came out it was like the second miracle. We had a bunch of apartments with copper slab leaks. We knew the copper was bad because the leaks weren't from kinks or rocks. The copper was deteriorating from bad manufacture process. So we told the customer we would pro press and no warranty. We couldn't silver solder braze w/o just creating more leaks. So we pro pressed and got down the road. Never had one of the repairs come undone or leak. I've been retired now since 2013 . I miss the trade. If I wasn't handicapped I be right back out there.

I just try to be as non-threatening as possible while constantly being aware of my surroundings. I always do my best to get a count of the number of people in the house Just a tip for everyone: if someone is coming to your house to service some equipment, don't quietly follow them everywhere. Make some small talk or ask questions, but don't just stand there watching us. It's very unsettling. And please, let everyone else in the house know that a tech is coming to do work, for their sake and for mine.

I'm just thankful that nobody was seriously injured or lost their life in this incident. When I was in middle school, I lost a friend to an accident with a stolen handgun. He'd been with another friend of his (a 10th grader at the same school) at the time when his friend found the gun on the ground, and in the process of trying to unload it, it discharged and shot my friend in the head, killing him instantly. Just like that, my friend was gone....and I didn't find out until the next day when it was announced at school. I spent the entire school day crying my eyes out, and I was still crying when I got off the bus to go home, and I can still remember my dad waiting for me at the door (he likely saw me crying and thought I'd been bullied again). When I told him what had happened, he just hugged me and held me until I had no more tears left.

A muscle shirt or tank top has broader fabric covering the tops of the shoulders and is more like a T-shirt with the sleeves cut off whilst a singlet has thinner fabric that doesn't cover the top of the shoulders and is often lower cut in the chest and back of neck area. also a "wife beater" would refer to a singlet rather than a tank top or muscle shirt here.

As someone who used to do residential installation work, I can confirm that we found ourselves in some pretty uncomfortable circumstances - drug houses, child neglect, racists, HUGE dogs, hostility, threats, and the occasional brandishing of weapons. Our greatest deescalation method was not reacting to any of it. We would remind the customer that we were there to provide the service they requested, and then we would be on our way.

[@thedave1771]

Back when I worked at a telco a couple decades ago, we had more than one customer’s account noted as they would intentionally damaged their lines, call for repair, then threaten or assault the tech. As a landline is considered an essential service we could not decline to provide service for any reason other than non-payment. Depending on the severity and history the police would be notified and would sometimes attend proactively. The tech was free to leave if they didn’t feel safe, but we’d have to dispatch another. I didn’t do any onsite work but from what I recall we had certain techs that were willing to take these calls, and I think they would arrange to go out in pairs. Luckily we don’t live in gunlandia, so it was rare to encounter anyone in the field that had a gun.

Wow.... Just wow. 4.5 years on a "plea agreement." I'll never understand why people get any sort of plea agreement when you openly said you committed the crime...

[@debroofgreen]

Some prosecutors are either overloaded with cases, some are anti-carceral/believe in equity in the justice system and they'll only seek prison time when the law makes it mandatory. In my country (Austria), our prosecutors rarely offer plea deals, but then again we don't have nearly the level of criminality as the U.S. I prefer prosecutors do their jobs and not act on behalf of the defendant. Maybe if U.S. prosecutors did their job properly the first time, they wouldn't have so many cases because if the offender is in prison, they can't reoffend, and most cases are people who reoffend. It's a terrible cycle made worst by the philosophies of progressive prosecutors.
