We Work Hard For the Money

Those guys in white shirts are so lucky. Compared to our job, theirs is ducky. I speak for us plumbers. Some days are such bummers, spent knee-deep in things really yucky.

Very good, Janice. I would hate to be a plumber becuase it must be horrible on the back and knees. The money , however, is much better than mine!!
