That's why I don't do service calls to residential. I would rather work in a sewage lift station.

I've been in places so bad, I feel like stopping by Long John Silver's on the way home and diving into their grease pit just to clean up.

I opened a 4" sq under a prep table in a commercial kitchen and it was almost full of roaches, it seems the underground conduit was a roach tunnel.

I go into places like that all the time and I always get the same line..."don't mind the mess, I haven't cleaned this week". And i'm thinking yeah maybe this week 5 years ago! Sometimes my shoe covers are to protect "my" boots

Was going to say, you can still see the floor. Also have had to go back to the van and grab a mask, latex gloves and booties because it was so bad.
