Reminds me of a close family friend.
Bought an older house in a nicer area thinking it would be cheap and get them started.
They knew it had a bit of asbestos and thought it would just be a quick patch job if they wante to take it out, or it was all sealed and O.K. to live in as is. They decided to get the asbestos removed...
So the man came and removed the asbestos... along with pretty much everything in the house. Every single wall was removed, the ceiling torn apart, the floor badly damaged.
The neighbours then figured the house was being demolished and helped themselves to the sinks, taps, fittings, parts of the floor, laundry tub etc. Left them with a frame. Nothing more.
To say this buttfucked them without lube, is an understatement.
