I started out at 14 labouring for my bricky Dad on school holidays.
One job (an just the one) the plumber connected the loo cistern to the boiler by mistake. No joke, though there is a menopausal punchline.
He never got the chance to do it again :D

I worked on a site in the early 70's, the clerk of works told me a story of a job he had worked on. Nearing the build finish the architect asked for a pipe between the floor and ceiling to be boxed in. When somebody checked the plans to see what the pipe was for it turned out to be a spare bit of pipe the plumber had jammed between the floor and ceiling joist until he needed it. But then he went on another job and the pipe was left there. The floor and ceiling were fitted around the pipe, floor tiles trimmed to suit and plastering finished and painted.

Love it!!!
Like the story of the heating engineer who got told he was off after the contract finished. He finished plumbing in all the heating then took his dosh and left. When the water was turned on it was discovered all the pipes from the rads went just below the floors and no further!
Looked OK though!
