What a stoopid azz screw up with washing machine

I walk down cellar a couple of hours after I did a load of towels, which has the longest wash cycle, more water, than washing anything else, and I find water all over the cellar floor. The wet-dry vac didn''t work hat good, so I resorted to using a huge towel and wring it in a five gallon bucket. An hour later I was pretty much done, determined to let the dehumidifier do the rest. I have been run down still from whatever I picked up a few weeks ago, so I figure I'll look at the washer in the a.m.

Next day I go down cellar and pull the machine away from the wall and prepare to take the back off the machine. I look up at the tube that runs from the pump to the PCV pipe that dumps into the septic tank. I tighten the clamp first, no problem there. I look further up where the serpentine hose bends into the PCV pipe and see it came out out the formed holder and was pointing at the wall. I took it down and bend it back into the holder, take some duck tape and secure it in the holder, then place it back in the pipe, and duck tape it in place in the pipe as well. All fixed. At least the cellar floor got washed. Another lesson learned.
