Yeah a painter had just unplugged it and plugged his crap in - as far as i can tell it was a radio he plugged in! I gave him a double adapter and told him off. Seriously he could have at least given me some warning. Why do ppl do things like that? Spot

Back when I was painting, if I were painting in a room and needed to move furniture, anything plugged in that was sitting on furniture i moved (except for a fridge) got unplugged. People don't maintain their electronic goods as well as they should sometimes and it was safer for everybody that way

It was up to residents to tell me if they wanted stuff left plugged in.

nah .... most electrical appliances are sitting on furniture.Move furniture to get to the walls and don't unplug everything, and you get trip hazards. Spot would cry a lot more if they'd left his nbn plugged in , but tripped on a wire and got paint all over his floors.

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

Common courtesy would be to tell someone first. I cant believe that nowadays someone doesnt know what a router looks like. I made the post because every tradie in the last few years has had same attitude. Oh and its not NBN Spot
