You can count doctors sometimes too.  I don't know what happen in the last couple years  but the last  doctors I've been practically didn't give a F** as long as they prescribe pills.  No exaggeration,  the last 3 time I went to the doctor(probably in 5years).  I walked out the clinic with a bogus prescription within 3 minutes tops.

thats about the rudest thing I've ever heard, trades people deserve no respect.....

I guess everybody else is wrong then.  Investigative reporting media, coworkers, neighbours, etc. ::)

Who is left? Sounds like you don't have respect for anyone.

I do, for those that are conscietous and qualified.

human beings deserve respect, until they, themselves, have lost the right to it. not because other people doing a similar job have done bad things.

i have to deal with people coming in and treating me like the last douche they had to deal with... so fun to spend the first 30 minutes of a transaction just proving i'm a different guy. by then, i just think the "customer" is a douche themselves.
i used to be addicted to soap, but i'm clean now

WTF does this even mean? Trades are the only ones to screw up? I've seen and been involved in the clean up of a lot of shitty engineering over the years. A utility I've done work with is currently taking legal action against one of the major engineering companies for the screwups during a recent large project.

Malpractice by doctors has been widely reported and studied. Somewhere around a thousand lawyers are disbarred a year in the US, and so on.

People screw up. That is not class or career dependent.

Maybe No H20 should try having a coffee in the car!  May relax him, so he can tolerate the service people more!

Wasn't no H20 a pilot?  Haven't pilots deliberately crashed their planes killing everyone on board?  Or just made mistake that killed everyone?

I bet bad pilots have killed more people than bad tradesmen.   ;D
