'Check The 'Fridge'....

Authorities said the worker who cleaned the fridge didn't need treatment — she can't smell because of allergies.

:icon_lol::icon_lol::icon_lol:

i have seen some pretty bad fridges where I work, but none like that.
 
Where I used to work they (the cleaning folks) would throw away anything found in the fridge after the business closed on Friday. If it was the CEO's leftover filet mignon...BOOM, in the trash it went. :applause: The company could never figure out how to stop people from burning the microwave popcorn, though. :redface:

i cleaned the fridge in a sheetmetal shop i used to work in, waaayyyy back in my apprentice days. to this very day, i still remember pulling out a paper bag and looking inside. there was a sammich bag in there, puffed up with gas.
it had what used to be a sammich in there.
it also had a huge population of these wormy-lookin things wrigglin around in there. it was really disgusting, so i threw it at one of my buddies. :icon_lol:
 
hahaha good one snuffy. it reminded me of a cartoon i did a long time ago while talkin on the phone. i can't believe i didn't post it:

BOW-WOW... first thing the customer says is I thought y'all had something to clean it out :barf:.....in your dreams...Mike
 
Back in my teen years, we had a nice large chest type freezer. This freezer was well stocked with venison, a few deer hides that I was going to tan, a couple tons of frozen veggies from our overly large garden, a good portion of a side of beef, a couple farm hams, yada yada yada. One evening Mom told Dad and I that the freezer had stopped working. We asked her what happened and she said she heard a pop and saw a puff of smoke come up from the back of the freezer. So, Dad and I go over to check the freezer out. The first thing we did was open the lid to make sure things had not begun to thaw out....and we were blasted with a stinch that could only be described as Satan's morning breath! Not only had every thing thawed, everything had progressed into a nice state of decay and putrification. We, gagging all the way, stumble up the stairs from the basement and the Freezer of Funk and ask Mom how long ago had the freezer stopped working.

Her reply: A couple of weeks ago!

WTF! A couple of weeks ago, and she was just NOW telling us about it. I, having the less weak stumach....I still can't believe that Dad ever made it through the Marine Corps with his ever so weak stomach and his tendancy to pass out at the sight of blood (he would have been useless in a war...shot a fella then pass out for a couple hours)...got the undesirable task of carrying all that rotting, putrid stuff out of the basement, piling it up and burning it. The house stank for a good two weeks...and we couldn't open windows to air the house out as it was in the dead of winter.


Back some years ago, I was working at a metal fab shop. I got selected to clean the break room fridge every Friday evening....no complaints from me, as it got me off the production line and into the nice air conditioned break room for an hour. The policy was that anything in the fridge at 10pm on Friday evening would not be in the Fridge at 11 pm Friday evening. I stuck to that policy and threw everything in the fridge out....which made the supervisor mad. Diego was a heavy set, ex-Marine Latino A-hole first class (I really liked him!). He came into the break room before our shift started and asked who had been cleaning out the fridge on Fridays. I said I was the guilty party. He looked at me with his sternest glare and said "I wish you would stop throwing my Mexican tupperware away"...meaning all those margarine and butter bowls he was using to carry his lunch to work in. Mexican tupperware!

Here ya go...Whirlpool is having a recall for Maytag on a compressor relay that has been catching on fire. So we are slammed with that along with three other recalls...lol. Anyway called this customer up and let him know he was my next call and should be there in the next 10 or 15 minutes. Got to the house and no answer at the front door. As I was waiting I started looking around this chet hole of a house and I said to myself...Mike you are gonna gag in here...finally this guy around 70 years old comes around from the side of the house with shoulder length hair, and looked like he had never washed or had a bath.When he came to the door to let me in I could hardly hold my breath long enough for him to get by me. I mean this guy stank something bad. Anyway in the house I go and the smell of cat chet and body odor would knock you out. Part of the refh was in the kitchen and the other part was in the back room.By the way the inside of this house was just one big chet hole and was just flat out filthy. My shoes stuck to the carpet as I walked. Anyway he opens up the door so I could get to the back side of the refh and there was just boxes and boxes of cat chet in the litter box. On top of all that he spread cat litter behind the refh and let the cats chet there. I looked at him and said why didn't you clean this up after I called. He said clean what...I said all this cat crap. He just took his foot and kicked some of it away and then threw a towel down.I finally looked at him and said look....you need to get all the cock roaches off the refh and spray down there and clean this room up before we sent a tech out there again. He said I really don't see what the big deal is and why I can't do my job.I wanted to say so bad the best thing that could happen here is for the damn refh to catch on fire and burn the house down along with it. I just walked out shaking my head. When I got out to the truck I had cat chet on my shoes and I was about ready to heave one. Went to the back of the van and kept spraying my shoes till all the crap was off. I am glad he didn't offer me something to eat. :barf:
 
i went into a house like that when i lived in tennessee.
and get this -
THE WOMAN WAS A NURSE FOR HOLSTON VALLEY MEDICAL CENTER!
the T.V.A. was paying us to replace her heat pump a/c.
part of the deal when taking T.V.A. jobs is you gotta take what they give you. we refused to go in, the trailer was, no lie, KNEE DEEP in take-out trash, and there was cat crap dripping off the side of the tables and chairs.
the health dept came in, cleaned the place out, put down new carpet and paint, replaced alot of the furniture, the dog catcher or someone took away most of the animals, we came back when they were all done and replaced the unit, condenser, and the duct. if i ever got sick back then, i woulda never went to holston valley hospital, all because of her :barf:
 
whn i was plumbing..we did alot of service work..we were known more for service work than new construction..we got a call from a "well to do family" that they had a plugged toilet,something had pluged it up....that was a friday and we asked if they had other restrooms,they had 4 bathrooms in the house and yes it could wait until monday...
i got there monday morning at 7 am and the lady showed me in..made me use a backdoor as i was a "worker" i wasnt allow to the front door..that didnt bode well with me as it was...then she wanted me to remove my shoes and PANTs as she didnt like boots and they didnt allow "comman jeans" in her house...i refused ofcourse...(had she been younger and cute,,,well...:applause:) she shows me to the bathroom after some word were said..i walk in and the toilet bowl is litterall over flowing with fiecies,,,,absoulty full of and over flowing on to the floor ...the puddle of brown mess was about 3 foot round.....i asked if it had been coming up when the other toilets were flushed...

she said OH no..we dont use those bathrooms..they are for show only...i about puked....and BTW?? there wasnt one bit of TP anywhere to be seen...not even on the roller....i told her to clean the mess up and i would come back..she pitched a fit..told me she was goin to call the cops if i didnt fix it imediatly....so i said please do...a cop showed up..who happened to be one of my friends..and they called CPS and took the womans two young kids..called someother services...anyway...the people got taken care of...but it was sickening
 
We had an Acupuncturist move out of a house in the town where we used to live in Northern NY. House sat empty for 3 years with no electricity. In the basement was a chest freezer. Still there and still full when the house was sold. You know the rest of the story..... :barf:
 
The only real problem I have is when you almost gag from the way a person lives and they don't see nothing wrong with it.I have only reported one customer to the Health Dept. in 35 years of doing service work. Seven different techs refused to go into the house. When I finally went there I have never in all my life seen what was in there...Mike
