Been there done that, there was the cat lady on the north side of Jackson with the hardwood floors that at first glance looked like they had just been revarnished but when you stepped on them your realized that it was a sticky glaze of cat urine, I had to wear a respirator in this house.
There was the dog breader on the north side of Dextor in the A frame house that was surrounded by kennels of breading pairs, he opens the sunroom door to let me in ( dead of winter ) and I get hit in the face by a brickwall of amonia and urine smell so bad my eyes watered instantly and my nose hair fell out. Walking inside I took a deep breath before entering, through the sunroom and into the living room there was a two foot tall white picket fence walk way through each room, a long dead christmas tree covered in ornaments and years of dust but no needles was on one side. In the living room there was stacks of boxes and books and old newspapers and clothes, all the windows were covered in thick black drapes with no light coming in at all save for a sliver here and there. The only light in the room came from the tv being watched by a painfully white girl who at another time and a better life would have been stunningly hot now looked like a bad day at the local crack house. I left the house after looking down the basement stairs to where the customer kept and old cband hooked up to a wireless transmitter system and called corp to cancell the work order and try to regain my breath after asthma kicked in hard.
The house in inkster with the 18 yr old kid and his friend with her 2 yr old, carpet has never seen a vacuming, kitchen is gated off and theres dog crap and urine all over the floor, a sinke and counter full of dishes and mold in various states of growth with a cloud of nats and flies. The yard is no better as Im looking to find a spot to put the dish on the house but find that the roof is to steep to walk and at the time we had to schedule for polemounts. Kid breaks down and starts crying because he spent his dollar to get dish because he was mad at direct for dropping the wwf payper views and didnt want to miss wrestle mania.
The crack house with two 50 inch big screens yet I could see through the second floor to the first.
The slum house on the east side off of Jefferson where the basement was flooded with 5 foot of raw sewage from the broken sewer line in the back yard wich had caved in a third of the back yard.
The two story house near detroit city airport that had 50 gallon trash cans in every room and on the landing between floors and the carpet was so foul that it clung to your boots like gel.
The double wide in white lake where the couple had a few grand in video gear in the bedroom for recording and they made Roseanne and Tom look like super models wich really left a bad image in my head.
Best houses were in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama, not a single horror story there at all.
