Reply to comment by rustybullrake in Why do Rhode Islanders say bubbler when most people don't? Here's what we found out by Katie_Lan

Bold take shittng on tradesmen who do backbreaking and often dangerous work for requiring a bare-minimum level of training and holding people to the standard. I'm sure we'd all prefer if everytime a basement floods some stranger gets a three month paid vacation and a kudos for helping to keep the water-users in their place.
