This Christmas, my dad received a Rubber Chicken for Christmas. I can’t imagine who gave him that! He was really excited to participate in TYRCTWW this year and proved it by taking 72 pictures of his chicken!! He even got his customers in on it, and everyone wanted to be in the pictures. My Dad is a plumber, and here is what his rubber chicken learned at work:
Answering the phone means you have to head out for the day:

Opposable thumbs would be helpful.
Where you pick out supplies for the job:

Too many choices for a chicken!
And learn that dealing with unhappy sales people is a routine part of the job:

Apparently the salesman doesn't speak chicken.
Customers appreciate a plumber who wears booties:

A little too big...the chicken has small feet....
Diving headfirst into dirty places is the only way to get the job done:

You've got to be kidding me.
The chicken tries to sneak off for a mid-day tipple at a customer’s house:

The customer won't notice if I just take a little...
The chicken learned that plumbing often requires you to work in tight, uncomfortable positions:

Twisted Chicken
Chickens are good at watching while the plumber does the real work:

The chicken thinks this is for the birds!
The chicken helps by holding the faucet in place:

Look! I'm helping!
After a long day, a visit to the local package store is the way to go:

Not as good as Twisted Oak.
Followed by a stop at your favorite bar:

Just pour it into my mouth.
And finishing up with a good scrub:

Rub a dub dub.
So there you have a day in the life of plumber chicken. The poor chicken is now resting peacefully as he is all worn out. Plumbing is hard work!
