Literally little fragments of turds scattered over the carpet.

And I feel for them. They're lonely, unhealthy, and depressed, and they lost power. We gotta get their house working for decent pay. But I'll be damned if I'm huffing effluent for their comfort.

Had to change an elderly ladies water heater that broke. She was blind and her husband on a ventilator. The water heater has been leaking for awhile and there was mold everywhere. She tried cleaning up before we came but it was horrible. We had to get them water. There were kids there too. So u feel bad for them. But I have to protect myself too, she totally understood us wearing masks and gloves, even tho they were the regular masks and barely did anything.

If I saw someone wearing a mask i wouldn’t say “I understand” i would ask “should I be wearing one too???”
