A new washer, eh? Sounds like drudgery to me, but I guess it beats a washboard all to heck!

My brothers and I bought a new LCD TV for Dad's birthday earlier this month. The day of the delivery came and we waited , like you, with anticipation. The delivery guys called and said it would be late. Then they called when it was late and said they weren't coming until the next morning.

It was no big deal, but I just gotta get this off my chest, so hear me out!

The delivery guy came just after 8:00. He couldn't figure out how to make the Dish work, so he called another driver in to help. Guy #2 was such a goofball, but between the two of them, they finally got the satellite TV to work on the new set.

All was well, until Guy #2 summed it all up by saying with a wink in Dad's direction, "Well, at least now he can watch the Playboy channel!"

Dad's just gets the basic package and his worst TV habits involve watching WWF wrestling. I shot #2 a glance and said, "He'd better not!"

Then Guy #2 laughed it off by saying something to the effect that every guy watches it (or deserves to watch it) or something like that! Oh puhleeze!

I felt that remark was so out of line with how the company would expect to be represented by an employee.

He hurried and left before I could unload my crabbiness on him, so then I had to have it all day long!!!

Okay, thanks Blessings. Been wanting to unburden myself of that for weeks now.

You can have your thread back. As you were.


And Yeahbut, you'd better not tell me that at least the sun was out and it wasn't raining!!! Or else!!!




Yeah, ELSE!
