A Muslim crypt was probably the strangest place I ever worked in. Back in my union days.

i worked in a Sikh temple once and it was a bit unnerving when they started chantting. Although, they may have felt the same had they attended a Catholic church. It is this empathy that sets one apart from selfishness.

We would leave 5 minutes before prayer 2 times a day. I had to crawl inside the tombs to skim the blocks. There was so much ornamental work in there is was gaudy.

Our believes come from our culture. Every culture has their own believes that have been passed down from generation to generation. My mom was raised Catholic went to a Catholic school. My dad was an atheist and so were his parents. I never went to church until I was about 15 with a friend and his parents. I never really bought into it literally, but I did understand the wisdom and the metaphors. Do want to others as you would want done to you and so on. Although I'm not a religious person I do believe in karma and I practice it.

Built a chimney on a container that farmer stacked cow **** in to use the methane as power, that stunk like hell. Done some churches and synagogues, built baptismal pools and a really cool tower with a round opening in it that had some religious symbolization at the synagogue that was pretty cool.

Im sure all of you commercial guys have found yourselves in some strange places before so lets hear it!

Just recently I was working in a mental health hospital. It was inhabited.

Ive built massage parlors, sex shops, head shops, Jails, mental hospitals ect.

The active mental hospital probably takes the cake for sheer lunacy, oddly enough its closest contender was doing remodels on the gas station chain "Quik Trip".
the mental inhabited place, sounds creepy.. for me mostly homes so no weird experiences..

The strangest job I had was remodeling a mortuary. I actually had to work in the room where the kept the bodies. And, yes there were bodies when I worked there! :eek: At least it was a cool (almost cold) and quiet (everyone just lay quietly all day) place to work. :D
Hahaha, this is a weird one. I would not like working around dead people
