Not so cool Friday Giftures

I don’t work at the speed of light. I have a tendency to be slackadaisical from time to time, especially when it comes to people I don’t needing things from me. I take my time to do things mediocrially. But for the most part I get things done within the day that you need it. Apparently, that isn’t the case when it comes to air conditioning. We have been without for almost 3 weeks. In July, for most of the US that is either the hottest or second hottest months. Thankfully, we had an appointment scheduled for Tuesday at 9:30 am, so I figured by the time I got home on Tuesday I would be having to wear a parka it would be so cold at our house. Got a call from the wife at 1:30 pm on Tuesday, and the guy didn’t even show up. He finally got there at 2:00 pm, told us he didn’t have a part, wouldn’t get there until 5 pm. Didn’t end up getting there, told us he would be there early in the morning on Wednesday, and left us sweltering once again. Next day, didn’t show up til 1:30 pm, still didn’t have all the parts, had an “emergency call” that was more important than us apparently, got the downstairs looked at, brought the unit, but didn’t install it. Yesterday again promised to be there at crack of dawn, yet when I came home, he was still out there working on the unit. Thank goodness it wasn’t hot as Hades out there last night. Finally managed to get the unit working by 9:30 pm. Glad it was just in time for bed. That totally warrants a free unit right? Nope, not for me. Anyways, know that that is finally fixed I can finally focus on being bitter about other things. Like Friday Giftures…

I feel you…
