You mean you didn't poke your head up into an attic and moan as you observe more flying splices and overstuffed, coverless j-boxes than you can count while wishing you hadn't answered the phone?
Or reset any GFI's that had sprinklers pointed right at a protected receptacle?
Or try to convince both the customer and the utility engineer that they have on the phone that the 60A a/c feeder 5' from the service entrance is pulling the 200A service down 14% because the transformer or utility conductors are undersized or have bad connections, not that the house wiring is "bad".
Or try to convince a homeowner that her candelabra bulb in her dining fixture did not "explode" due to faulty wiring but more likely the glass failed and just fell over onto the dining table, shorting the filament and tripping the ckt in the process?
Or explain that the reason the garbage disposal switch isn't right next to the sink is because there is solid framing and a vent pipe in the wall preventing it from being placed there?
I'll stop there.
