What's a vinyl pan? this voicemail makes me curious.
Is this NSFW?

Shower pan.

Foul language mp3, Specklet. Mp3's are generally safe, eh?

Not ones called "cocksucker.mp3". I can hide pictures of boobies, but Jerry sittin' across the way can hear my computer noises...

Vinyl pans suck. Butyl is much better, but the best is good old sheet lead, soldered.

Not one plumber in a thousand knows how to select or set a pan's safety drain properly. I finally got so that I would walk off a job if the pan and drain were screwed up. Recipe for disaster.

Plumbers are animals. Almost as bad as sheetrockers.

Warbaby: I hear you about the lead pan. I took one out of my shower recently, when I remodeled, and that sucker was Real. Unfortunately, getting a replacement was too hard, so I used vinyl.

The lead sheet now serves to turn stumps into rocks in the back yard.

Plumbers: Why are you putting in enameled steel bathtubs? They are going to rust through in 20 years. Cast iron is the only way to go. I know the answer, though. Screw the client!

In five years all new homes will be made out of saran wrap and plastic coat hangers.

Cocksucker.

Ah, so that's what a vinyl pan is! Note to self: lead > butyl > vinyl.
