That is hilarious,painful to read to be sure,but hilarious,OUCH!
Saw that a few years back as it made the email rounds. Too funny.
sounds like he worked at my plant...lmao
The new house is finally set,the electric is on,and I am staying my first night there tonight,not even looking forward to it,as far as I am concerned,they could have kept the *^) thing. It has an electrical issue that they have to come in and diagnose,worst bunch of #%$^#&@@! I have ever seen in my life,other than my father,must be related to him.
Ummmm,no,no candle light dinner here,I will save those for Canada!The electric is on,there is just certain rooms you cant turn lights on or it kicks the breakers
Well, good luck with the move in.
I'm glad you back in the house...sorta back in.
I was gonna suggest a house warming party, or at least some house warming gifts. Buuuuut then got to thinking about the reason for the new home and thought better of the warming part.
Have they fixed your electric yet?
