Hey that looks al dante, just needs some pasta sauce! Belicimo .... that kinda reminds me of some of the crap I see from the last installer my boss had working at our shop.
The wire I'm test'n isn't doin' what it's supposed to be doin'... I am so glad I printed that tech sheet, with the wrong info.
Do it right the first time... or I might have to fix it for ya

I didn't charge him more either after this nasty little beast jumped out at me, I kinda left sorry for the guy. It never amazes me to see what people bring me for fix its, but this is from a well known shop (I wont say the name, cuz i already called the shop and talked to the owner about it) Now I don't feel bad when I charge more for installs in my area, I hook up everything, and take pride in asking my other installers to look at my work and have them say,"where is it?"

Remindes me of some of the stuff I used to rip out after an installer lovingly known as "Spaghetti Eddie". His name REALLY was Eddie, too!
It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
