What an evening

[dripley]

Got off about 4:30, got back to the room and figured I would take a nap then get some dinner. Just kicked my feet up for the nap and get a call from CFA that the sewer line is stopped up. Get a plumber there and we open the manhole and are greeted with this.

Looks like a crappy evening.... Literally

Reversing connecting rods would have been a lot more fun. Might have got beer while I was doing it too.

Grease trap interceptor not functioning properly? May find a post hole digging tool handy for getting that out.

At first I thought it had to grease. That manhole is down stream of the interceptor. But a piece  #3 rebar proved me wrong. Definitely no grease, just poop and tp plus various other none flushable paper products. Even found a stolen credit card. Turns out after rodding and hosing it all to break it up I found about 6" of recycled concrete in the bottom of the manhole fouling things up. Never knew poop could clump up into a 20 pound s**t brick.

There is no way you are paid enough.

That job didn't match your credo for sure, "Overpaid and Underworked".

Dang. I thought this was going to be about a cocktail or couple on the deck enjoying the evening fade away into mosquitoes and awesomeness. 

 

I was wrong.

A couple times. After getting to the room a cleaning up even more, I could still smell it until i fell asleep. As far as pay goes, I got paid on Wednesday just like always. 

 I was fortunate enough to have a plumber with a drain snake. He was able to get the snake thru all of that and into outfall pipe. I ran the jet to break it all up. That's customer service!!

At least dumping the RV is much easier than lifting man hole cover and seeing that...

Wish we would have had a simple dump valve to open.

Speaking of which...... I found out cranberry juice works better than RV toilet tank deordorant. It works so much better I was astonished when I had to dump twice the amount of RV black tank treatment needed to get the same results as cranberry juice when I ran out. The cranberry juice was a cheap brand with citric acid as one of the ingredients. Just so you know.... Its better for the septic an drainfield too.

[notlimah]

How much juice?

[Royal Squire]

Good for your urinary tract too

I poured about a fourth of the bottle in there each treatment, that's just a guess since It may have been a half gallon bottle.

 

 What happened was I bought what I thought was good juice, but saw the ingredients had citric acid which my dentist tells me to avoid, so I  tried dumping it it in the black tank and see if it made any difference. I was amazed how well it worked till the tank was emptied a week later, without any other treatment in there.
