Refrigerator not working again

Ah, the all male reaction. Got to write about something even worse. Any good battle wounds? Nonsurgical amputations are always popular. And African tribal circumcisions tend to draw a crowd of gawkers.

one should be fitting for our conversation. Lancing a boil. Presumbly without anaesthetic.

You could have told him that you soaked it in hot water, which makes it flexible.

I didn't want to waste any more time than I had to. I was working 16 hour days, seven days a week at that time. The gas heat had been off for a month and it was in SW Ohio where a small electric heater didn't do much.

It is rare, when someone on Usenet actually makes sense. This is such a moment.

Stormy, you wouldn't recognize a 'moment of reason' if one jumped up and bit you in the ass.

Twice.

Or three times.

He recognized what a bunch of thieves you are over in your lair.

But, then, a lot of folks knew that, so I guess that doesn't pick him out of the crowd; not for something THAT obvious.

OTOH, he seems like a totally reasonable person in contrast to your crowd.

Most folks look reasonable, when compared with the residents of Alternating Havoc list. Still, I'll accept the compliment.

BUZZZZ!!! Sorry, you but lost. The proper phrase is, 'You and your entire family are flaming idiots!' Don't despair, though. As a consolation prize you can select any of our high strung trolls to do whatever you want, with no consequences. ;-)

You can interpret any way you like but that is not what I said! What I siad and meant is or was If I have all material that is require and I was able to complete the work charge is minimum 4 hours! If I don't have all material require and I need to go back then first trip would be 3 hours and second trip will be also min. 3 hours unless it takes longer! Do you understand now! I know that my english is not perfect but perhaps I should drow you a picture?

Yep, I certainly do. If you are not properly equipped to fix the problem, you charge extra for your incompetence.

Yeah... I got it. I got it from all the ALT.HVAC "pros" I've dealt with.

Honest businessmen don't work that way. If they are the reason for the failure to perform, they suck it up.

Perhaps some of you do not know difference going back to finish job or getting call back, now we are going on subject of warrantees

I had one call back in apx. 20 years, and the reason that I had that because of manufacturing screwed up which I windup paying for it That is also because I did not go by my own instinct but lessoning to some else big mistake that will not happen again!!!

I'm one of the ones you'll have to drow (sic) a picture for. Are you saying that you are a service person, and IF you do not have the materials on your truck, that the client is responsible for you to go and get it?

I was a contractor for nearly ten years. I prided myself in running trucks that were STOCKED. On slow days, or when we had new personnel, their job was to go through EVERY truck and make sure that EVERY bin of nuts, bolts, widgets and wuzzits was full. When they learned how to do this, and they got out into the field, they would understand what it was like to go into an empty bin.

Sounds like you needed more time in the shop stocking trucks.

Now, that does not go for every trade. Like the HVAC guys. They cannot be expected to carry everything they need. They only need to carry the essentials like an AmProbe, tick tracer, beer opener, and minimal tools. Everything else requires a trip to the local supplier and 4 hours pay. A GOOD HVAC guy carries only what will fit into a lawyer's brief case.

"Going back to finish job" means you were not equipped to do the job in the first place.
