Once Michael lived in a sublet room in an apartment near his campus. His bathroom (shared by three students) was leaking water above the shower unit for a full nine months before the chief tenant managed to obtain the land lord's consent to repair it.
On the day the plumber turned up, Michael saw him came up with his ladder before Michael hurriedly cycled off for classes. That evening, the leak was fixed. But the plumber, who disconnected the wiring near the leak for his own safety, forgot to reconnect the bathroom light. At that time, the plumber was happy as he earned his afternoon's fee. The land lord was satisfied, the bill was sent and the repair fee was duly deducted from that month's rent. He had done the right thing for his tenants.However, the chief tenant felt like a fool every time his three housemates shot dirty looks at him every night.
Thus the three hapless students began the period of their lives walking into a dark bathroom/toilet after each sunset.
