whats your worst accident while fitting

Have knocked many a rad off a wall in new builds but nothing drastic.

 

When i was on the cards with the firm that trained me we had to fit curtain rails, luckily i don,t fit them now thank god. One job we went to i was drilling a hole in the wall and drilled through a cable , there was a big bang and i was on the floor on the opposite side of the room

 

Another time whilst with the same firm, i was only an apprentice then, we had a 20ft curtaintrack to put up.My mate had the firm,s steps and i borrowed the customer,s steps. These steps were VERY shaky and i fell off them , i made matchwood of a coffee table, a standard lamp fell over and smashed some vases and ornaments,infact everytime i looked around something was breaking, it all seemed in slowmotion . The lady was in tears and we didn,t work in the house again

 

absolute quality haha, the dreaded "house of horrors"

 

What were you playing at Ted "cards with the firm" and making a table out of matchwood!,wont go back to that house again,no wonder she was in tears.
