My father left me with a lot of wisdom, a couple of his favorite sayings:


1. Pay attention


2. Never assume

He’s a ****ing idiot. Doesn’t deserve a dime. Who doesn’t check the water temp before jumping in the shower?

Water is hardly ever full hot temp when you first turn it on. That said, businesses need to be careful about that. I worked at a restaurant in '74, the hot water for hand washing in the bathroom was incredibly hot. If you didn't watch out you could definitely burn your hands. It's a low budget mistake, using the same water heater that feeds your dishwasher for bathroom use.

It's a great thing, but people have to install them, which doesn't always happen.
