The pub toilets with pipe clips missing - soon the pipe will get
pulled off.
The doors that don't close properly.
The push down taps that need fixing.
The dirty extractor fan louvres.
The groaning car door.
The weeds in the block paving.
Kitchen cupboard doors that need adjusting.
Door closers that don't.
Lamps that need replacing.
Overhanging shrubs and trees.
Drives that need sweeping
Floodlights that dazzle.
Redundant TV aerials needing removing.

That pays my wages :-)

It took two men over an hour to fit a new lock to a storage compartment
door.

Last year while in a hopsital two nurses were trying to put up a sort of post/pigeon hole unit that had fallen down they were using a penknife and coins to try and do up the screws.
