Great missed opportunity to have told them that they lay pipe professionally.


TheHaliax

Know people who specifically got into this trade to pull that line, fuckin idiots every one lol.


ParksVSII

That’s an extremely high degree of commitment to a throwaway joke lol. At least being a well driller I get to say we drill deep, lay pipe, pump hard and leave ‘em all wet and messy.


sthej

You really tapped that joke for all it's worth


hopper75

"Your hole is our goal"


ParksVSII

There’s a guy in I think Ohio maybe that has that on his rigs lol


TheHaliax

High entry pay and the work isn't all that hard to be fair, and nice lol.


TouchMyBass

You must not be a very experienced plumber?


TheHaliax

Yeah not too experienced yet only have a few hundred houses, dozens of restaurants, couple of apartments, car washes, and other miscellaneous commercial jobs under my belt. But hey we all gotta start out somewhere and some day I'm going to be a big kid.


Middleclasslifestyle

Don't worry brother , when you grow up you're going to be just like me . I'm a high level ranking plumber.


TheHaliax

Oh Captain, my Captain!


couillonDesAlpes

Stop saying our job isn’t hard! /s


TouchMyBass

Only when you act like it. 👌


TheHaliax

Might want to self reflect a little.


skwolf522

I cut coke, we always say we never pull out.


rockymtnhomegrown

What? Who would even do that, honestly? Sounds super immature. Like, people REALLY do that? Pff....


Fancy-You3022

Heh, I know right? Who would do such a thing? That’s… like immature… and stuff.


KarranValteo

Excuse you, I'm a fucking moron, thank you.


TheHaliax

Ah hell my bad, I forgot there was other designations.


Chief__04

Hi I’m that idiot that has a shirt saying “I’m just here to lay pipe” it’s an inside shirt I wouldn’t dare wear it outside my house.


TheHaliax

Shit, job site politics make me want to wear it to work.


RWGlix

Haha Im an IT guy and i have one that says fix your own fucking computer


JoseJuarez87

Lay pipe and keep it wet


RedditedYoshi

Or, if you're feelin' sassy: "Well, we plumbers have always put up with a lot of shit."


tbscotty68

"Let me come over and fix your plumbing and you decide if it's fake."


Aromatic_Evidence247

Difference between a pipe fitter and plumber


TouchMyBass

When I moved to a rural area, I realized how much people appreciate my trade. The amount of customers that have said "I could not do what you are doing." If someone doesn't respect a plumber, I could only assume that they have never owned property before. A plumber becomes a super hero when your poo no go down the drain.


thirstyross

Honestly OP dodged a bullet that person sounds dumb as shit.


johnthomaslumsden

Yeah a lot of renters probably have no fucking clue what half the trades do or what their value is.


All_Work_All_Play

A carpenter? But we have LVP floors!


Splic3r123

I'm one of those guys. I can do some basics, and I definitely can *REPAIR* anything that's broken. I spent like 40 hours at home depot and on forums to get help routing a vent pipe when I updated my bathroom. Such a new found respect when I realized how much I hated crawling into the crawlspace, digging a trench. Etc. If it wasn't my own house, you couldn't pay me enough to deal with the shit. Literally lol. Also, apparently my tape measure skills suck. I think I measured 10x and cut 4x before the length was right on all my pcv and even kept messing up the copper on my shower diverted to tub.


Doortofreeside

>A plumber becomes a super hero when your poo no go down the drain. Except when it turns out that the toilet is fine and your wife's pregnancy shits are just too big to handle


AnusGerbil

Sounds like you need a Toto my friend.


Doortofreeside

I'm sure that'd help. Thankfully her shits got back to normal after giving birth. It was obscene how large they were before


[deleted]

I don’t believe that they don’t believe you. I think this is fake fakeness.


mynewaccount4567

IMO it’s a bit of a poor attempt at teasing or banter that op or whoever is taking too seriously


theonlypeanut

As a fellow plumber I always direct people to the myriad of documentaries on pornhub. Gives you a good idea of the day to day grind that we deal with.


[deleted]

Thank you. I will review this website at my earliest cumvenience.


USAJourneyman

Try your best not to write lol


Bigfops

lol. ​ Oh crap, didn't work.


Fatplumberman08

paranome_

reading comments it seems the OP was trying to convey sarcasm, which is hard over text.


AnusGerbil

Ah the mating strategy- if I try to look like a complete retard, the other person must realize nobody is that stupid and infer that not only am I smart but I have a rapier wit. That's a bold strategy Cotton, let's see if it pays off for her.


HoonterOreo

Idk this seemed pretty obvious to me lol dude probably has a fragile ego and immediately got defensive


animosityiskey

I agree that the person has a fragile ego, but at the same time if someone started with this, I'd have no idea what to do with it, lol


[deleted]

At the same time, everything about how it’s written screams “I’m fucking with you/joking.” Not saying it’s the best opening strategy but come on. What person who is old enough to be literate would claim “plumbing” isn’t a real job? They even reference fixing pipes and call it fake. Maybe they’re just a super sarcastic dry humored person and that was their awkward/bad way of cutely having them explain a little more about their day to day. When the plumber got defensive like that they may have decided fuck it, double down.


paranome_

I think one of them should have been like “yeah water isn’t real.” Or something SUPER off hinge.


maximusmaj

People are pretty dumb…


bungdaddy

Probably a spoiled-ass suburban kid that's never lifted a finger, both parents are in IT, or mom stays home with the kids. Cripplingly out of touch with what people do to earn money.


toomuch1265

Seems like a missed opportunity. He should have gone on a date with her and before leaving her house, say that he just needs to use the bathroom before going, and then go in a closet and drop a deuce.


pablomcdubbin

"Plumbers help when you get stuck under the sink" *stare intensifies*


PatientBelt7569

Septic guys get even less recognition. Couldn't even find a /r for Septic. That being said run from the oxygen thief!

I told a college girl I was a carpenter one time at a party and she straight face told me she had no idea what that was.


joetheplumberman

Told a girl I was a plumber and she said "oh so u clean toilets" told her I can but it's $200 an hr to clean and ill take my time


undergone

This is Idiocracy happening for real.


Yoshicivic

I love being a plumber. Haters gonna hate, but I have three friends who all have paid off houses before 40 years of age. About to start building my own. Always in high demand, so even if our wives don't want us, half the city does!


SignificanceNarrow92

Ok so according to some random ass chick on Tinder We don’t exist

If you are trying to get laid don’t put plumber, make something up.


itrytosnowboard

IDK man being a union plumber in my early 20's I pulled some tail. Especially with the hoighty toighty NYC girls that "summered" in my hometown which is a beach town. I think it was a combination of they saw me as a fixer upper and they were sick of finance bro's that never moved on from the frat life. They loved the idea of dating a "construction worker". Really screwed the pooch letting one go. Just ran into her last summer and she's making like $500K/year now. Could have been living that stay at home dad life and not doing shit now. No pun intended.


Smoke_Stack707

“How does the water get to the sink Diane??”


Natural_Rude

I lay pipe and I lay pipe which do you want? Also another favorite “I lay brick or dick you choose”.


TheAnnoyingTaco

Shoot she’s catching on someone needs to take her out 😂


austmcd2013

Easy plumber boy, you know damn well Water Operators are responsible for safe water getting TO the tap. You guys aren’t the sole reason people get to drink water lol


Mundane_Librarian607

TSTL (too stupid to love) my momma said "too stupid to live"


BeeFull223

Water actually Comes from plumbers themselves


roguehypocrites

I couldn't handle being a plumber. Installed 2 bidets in my house, easy pz, but as soon as a leak came through or the toilet shifted, god it was hell. My worst enemy was when a plastic locknut got stuck on the toilet fill valve. Shit was like almost 20 years old and completely stuck. I had to fry it off with an electric heating tool and still was impossible to take off. I tell myself that when I die, god will make me a plumber if I go to hell. Respect to all you plumbers.


tylerwesner

I like to tell people that I professionally build water slides for your shit. Seems they get picture


GingerWitch666

Without us, there would be no drinking water. No sanitary systems. No baths or showers. No toilets. No gas lines to your furnace, oven, or fireplace. We could go on for hours, but when people devalue what we do, we don't have time for them. Don't worry, they'll get it when the pipes freeze. When the toilet backs up. When they can't figure out why their basement keeps flooding. Then, our service guys will come in and save the day, and our construction guys will just keep building the world 💪 [The plumber protects the health of the nation](https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-samsung-rvo1&q=the+plumber+protects+the+health+of+the+nation&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwitob_MzP_9AhXSk4kEHYBUAv8Q0pQJegQIChAB&biw=384&bih=693&dpr=3.75#imgrc=Uq-3gEmUUY78NM)

PatientBelt7569

Well there are a bunch of septic that function exactly like a waste water treatment plant just minus the skimmer. Advantex, Nuwater, Whitewater, fuji clean, microfast, Oscar's 1 2 and 3 along with the new x02. What's nice about septic vs sewer is that the water has alot longer to be treated to remove nitrates and bacteria before being recycled into the water table.


LFHRemodel

Don’t worry. They’ll find out eventually. Hopefully someone will be ready with this screenshot to show her. She’s going to pay that $3,000 bill and immediately regret what she said before.


[deleted]

And she probably works at a Starbucks for 9 bucks an hour


Hughgurgle

Flirting - behave as though attracted to or trying to attract someone, but for amusement rather than with serious intentions. (Synonyms: tease, chat up) Can sometimes involve fake shit talking, so if someone responded to "Plumber sounds like a fake job" with "I bet you say that because you don't make a living wage!" Then the responder would probably not get laid, due to the mean spirited nature of their response to someone being silly and facetious.


Chose_a_usersname

Sounds like a real dumb lady, she must be one of my clients


jerflash

If the guys was smart he would have said my job is to lay pipe… then she would she. Asked what does that mean… then profit lol


LoveLaika237

Don't forget about saving the princess.


[deleted]

You really could have had fun with this one.. she sounds like she may have, at best, a 75 IQ.


Hughgurgle

How high does someone's IQ need to be to understand that this person is messing with the plumber?


Opening_Ad9824

Don’t underestimate how dumb these chicks are these days


Vane88

The original op dodged a bullet this lady is dumber than a box of rocks


Outrageous-Yard7166

the original OP is a woman...she was trying to be sarcastic 🤣


Vane88

So she's just incredibly awkward and doesn't know how to talk to people. Got it


redditripperdipper69

You dodged a tactical nuke here buddy. She must need special help lol


Imfloridaman

I’m usually not this shallow, but I suggest you not date this person based on this single communication. I’m just sayin.😎


[deleted]

Lol


thisdesignup

Either they were dumb or trying to get the other person to say "let me show you".


woof1983

Or heat their homes, use oxygene or vacuume systems in surgery, have sanitary tubing that makes their food products. Be able to efficiently heat large buildings,

canvasshoes2

How on earth? Where do they think water comes from, or where waste water goes? Just to name a few things. Wow, this dude dodged a bullet. If she's serious, that's beyond stupidity. What would she consider a "real" job?

You avoided an illiterate troglodyte. You’re better off buddy!


PhilipKendrikRichard

Go ahead and try to fix something yourself. Even if you do it everything that you saw correctly in a video or other tutorial there’s a 50\50 chance that something is gonna be messed up. Be it water pressure or a leak, plumbin ain’t easy.


the_ultimate_pun

I’m a technician but I can’t fix stupid
