[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 53537"] I worked for an electrician several years ago. Our company did residential service calls. The owner was a great electrician, but he was also a drug addict. His drug of choice was crack, but he really wasn't picky. He found some quack doctor who would prescribe him valium, 90 at a time with refills. He would take the entire bottle in a weekend then be off work for a week. He'd have pipe burns on his lips and fingers. When it got bad (he went into rehab a couple of times and checked out early, then finally went to some facility in Minnesota, I think), he would pull this kind of behavior. There were 3 other electricians and they would cover all they could, but some of the jobs they just didn't have the experience to do. I felt so bad that we kept putting people (customers) off who had rearranged their schedule for us. When he went to rehab for the 3rd time in 6 months, I quit. [/QUOTE]
