Bookworm: Achievement Unlocked

LMAO. I just spent $1,151 on FOUR BOOKS.

Two Uniform Plumbing Code books for 2018 plus two guidebooks for the construction of hospital and outpatient facilities.

NEARLY TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARS Y'ALL. So happy I got to use someone else's bank account for that purchase.

And you will not there are no detectives, no cowboys, no vampires included in this purchase. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Like... I'm in the wrong business. Seriously.

There's no special plumbing codes for the cowboy ward?

They're just spec'd with anti-ligature fixtures. Because you know cowboys... always roping stuff. :D

(Clues you've worked in the construction field too long. LOL)

It's like textbooks... they know you have to have them so they can gouge you for them. Pricks.

I know, right? I mean, I've paid some crazy prices for a book but $400? For one? NOPE.
