That Tuesday where three separate drain lines clogged on me before lunch

Last month I had one of those days where nothing went right. We were at a 4-story office building near the Target on Route 37, and before 10 AM I got calls about backed-up sinks on floors 2 and 3, plus a main line issue in the basement. Turns out some contractor had flushed concrete washout down the toilets during a renovation a year ago (go figure) and it had finally settled in all the wrong spots. Has anyone else dealt with that kind of cascade failure where everything fails at once?

Had a buddy who worked a strip mall job where three different restaurant grease traps all backed up on the same Friday. Said he spent the whole day just shoveling congealed oil into buckets. Rough way to make a living.

Tbh that's just one of those dirty jobs people don't think about when they order takeout.
