Let us all give thanks to Thomas Crapper for this wonderful invention.
Which is also used on boats, so it's appropriate.

If I had a youngster today, I'd advise them to enter a union
apprenticeship program for either plumbing or electrical. No matter where
these society goes, it is going to want indoor plumbing and electricity.
There's a chance the nuke plant near us might be expanded. If so, it will
mean several years of very high paying work for union plumbers and
electricians, among others. We're talking about $100,000+ a year,
family-supporting jobs for hardworking men and women who have the skills
to do the necessary critical work.
I had a plumber quote me $465 to change the trap under my mothers sink. I
think he is making more than they make at the nuke plant. Of course, I
didn't hire him, I did it myself.
It takes 5 minutes to change a trap. Why did you even bother calling a
plumber?
BTW, no offense but I do not believe you received a $465 quote to change a
trap. No way.
hmmmmmmmmmm, OK
but I am still willing to accept your humble apology
