new one on me

A coal burning power plant that I just got into called me. Their on-site sewage treatment plant was having problems. Long story short, the grey water goes under a baffle and into a 3" pipe to a water wheel where it gets sluiced over a bed of coal. They suspected the 3" pipe was full of leaves. The pipe was under about 18" of grey water, so it was a poke and hope to get the cable in it, I was using a small drop-down retrieval tool. The cable started bunching, I pulled it back and there was a pair of prescription glasses wrapped around the tool. The odds of those glasses making it all the way thru the plant and then under the baffle and into the 3" pipe must be pretty high. Smelled like money, though.

Just as long as there wasn't a head attached to those glasses.

Amazing, drag the settling pond for bodies
I was asking on another forum if anyone had used their retrivers down gofer holes. Guy said no , but last winter clearing a line I pulled back a cats' head.
He was serious

My dad took care of the municpal water and sewer for 30 years. As kids we used to go out to the sewer plant and help him dip out condoms and other floaties. We were so innocent, we used to ask my dad how come people flushed all the balloons down the toilets. I told the fitter who was helping me that this was bringing back "lovely childhood memories." He just shook his head.

Had a customer come to me and had a problem with a sewage pump.
It was in a office building where a lot of women worked and he kept getting "white mice" clogging the pump and needed a grinder pump.

Took me a while to figure out why having a lot of women would cause white mice.

floating down at the treatment plant...
