So I don’t know if there’s something in the air but I’ve been bitten by the “bitchin’” bug.
Yesterday I was in rare form.
First of all, we had contractors at our house installing our new sliding french doors. I go downstairs and our electricity is totally out. Then I realize that the heat vent he moved over is half assed installed. So I call him downstairs and point these out.
His comment was “yeah, I thought that light was working yesterday.”
Uh yeah, dipshit. Anyway, after another two hours of him tinkering around he finally jacked up the electrical and I’m just praying that our house doesn’t catch on fire. I made sure to question his electrical practices even though I had no idea wtf he was doing!
As far as the heating duct is concerned he said he was just moving it over and that’s the way the previous installer did the job. Bastard Sears installers.
Then our furnace starts making this buzzing noise so I call out the company that installed our a/c two weeks ago. They come out and tell me that I shouldn’t have shut off the vents to the kids rooms. I inform them that the only way we get air upstairs is if I shut them off. The tech goes upstairs and says that we should have a heat/air return installed upstairs. Something totally not mentioned when we installed our $3,000 air conditioner. And we were told that we would have full air throughout the house!
So he says he’ll go back to the shop and try to figure something out. The salesperson calls on the phone and tries to defend herself in saying that all houses are different and she didn’t know how our house would react with an a/c unit, blah, blah blah. Obviously, they don’t want to eat the cost. But, Jesus Christ, I shouldn’t have to use a friggin’ window a/c unit to cool the upstairs after I’ve paid a fortune to have central air!
Anyway, I tell her to go to the drawing board and that I’m not happy at all. She’s suppose to get back to me this morning. Bitch.
I’m seconds from telling them to pound salt and come and get their piece of shit air conditioning unit. As noted in their guarantee:
“If at any time during the first 6 months (180 days) of installation, you are not 100% satisfied
with the performance of the equipment, our service or even our people,
we will, within 30 days of your request, remove the system and
cheerfully refund the entire amount of the contract.”
Yeah, right I’m sure they’ll “cheerfully” return my money! They’ll probably drop off the $3,000.00 in pennies on my doorstep.
Then I went to Baby Gap and got Emmy a pair of jeans and Graem a head band. Graem tries it on for three minutes takes it off and I realize there’s chocolate or blood all over it. So I call Gap to bitch and moan about their nasty headband!
Mama is on a roll ….
*yawn*
I need a nap now.
