Neutral and ground wire snapped, how safe is it to leave for a day?

I was readjusting the depth of an outlet this morning and the ground and neutral wire snapped off the outlet, with the hot wire still attached to the outlet. I know I need to reterminate the ground and neutral into the outlet but I need to go to work and I don't have the tools. How safe is it to leave the outlet like that for the day? submitted by /u/SS324 [link] [comments]
