I had to laugh at the shower head.
 
Reminds me of the carport posts for my house. One day I noticed that the post was loose.
Come to find out the posts (not PT) were just set into the ground:rolleyes:, bottoms were all rotten.
Not fastened to the carport either.
Lucky the carport did not collapse during snowstorms.

Had to jack up the carport 2-3 inched to get it level again, pour a proper footing and replace
the posts with PT wood securely fastened top and bottom.

this makes me laugh every time. it also brings up so many memories!
 
One of my co-workers who is a certified sweep has some pics of shame he has shown me . . . one of the best ones was a gas (propane or natural gas -- I'm not sure which type) which was run through the masonry chimney even though the home owner still used the wood burning fireplace. Best part was when the sweep/firefighter called up the company and spoke to the tech who saw nothing wrong with the install.

Another great one was a plumber who had a gas-fired hot water heater with the exhaust venting inside with no exterior vent . . .
