    You would hope that it was a diy job.
    A professional to that is just criminal.

    I once saw a "professional" install a gas hob and pipe it in qualpex with Tectite push fittings, fortunately it was spotted before it was ever commissioned. This was done by an employee of a large mechanical contracting firm.

    Then he wasn't a professional.

    ... Well technically he was: he got paid for it.

    That's all professional means - it is not a technical or qualitative standard.

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    If he was working for a "large mechanical firm" then he would of been paid by his employer and not from the customer directly , in which case he would also be paid for picking his nose or scratching his hole ,as long as it was within his hours of work . Does that make him a professional arse picker?
    His company was paid by the customer, so they are the professionals and should of know better than to send an untrained gimp to carry out such work.
    .....So technically, stop being so pedantic

    "Paid" he may have been, but the work was that of an amateur.

    Oxford Dictionary "Professional"
    Worthy of or appropriate to a professional person; competent, skilful, or assured.

    Engaged in a specified activity as one’s main paid occupation rather than as an amateur.
