Please help...advice needed.
How many shots of whiskey should one have before attempting to do electrical work on the service panel, ie...the box that holds all of the circuit breakers?

I fucking hate working inside those things, I get nervous as hell because there is more than enough electricity in there to kill you dead. I mean, it's not like working on a wall switch or something.

So, before I attempt this, I am going to smoke a little weed and drink a bunch of whiskey in an attempt to relax me. I figure that the more relaxed I am, the less likely I am to make a mistake.

Assuming that I smoke a full bowl first, should I follow it up with maybe 3 shots of whiskey? 6 shots?

Serious answers only please.

2. Are you saying that I should stand in a bucket of water also?
That's not a very nice thing to say to a fellow DU community member.

7. I don't know, but you should stand in the bong water as you work on the panel.
Because, you know, warm water is soothing to your feet.
