As fast as Joe came into fame his popularity is quickly diminishing. With reporters looking into Joe's background another tidbit of information that has come to the surface is quite surprising: Joe is not a very good plumber.
In an exclusive interview with the manager at the local Ace Hardware(coincidental named John Madden), it seems that Joe makes several trips there daily, purchasing item after item as he continuously makes mistakes throughout the day. "I have sold Joe the same item several times in the course of a day on many occasions" says Madden. "He frequently asks for advice on the simplest of tasks; leaky faucets and clogged garbage disposals for example. I don't even think he has a license."
When Joe's best friend made recent trip to the Ace Hardware store, Madden found out he was heading to Joe's to fix a small leak in a water pipe at Joe's house. Joe tried to repair the leak with duct tape and now his basement is flooded and he doesn't know what to do. As his lawn is littered with reporters he was too embarrassed to leave the house so he called his friend asking for help. "It's not the first time I have had to help Joe with a project" says his friend, "just the other day he called me claiming he couldn't turn his water on as the faucet must have seized. I brought over a replacement faucet to install but the problem was just that he was turning the handle the wrong way." More to come as this story unfolds.
Joe "The Plumber" calls friend when pipe bursts!
