well it was a bumpy start here today.
we just seem to have rotton luck alot lately.
The man who was supoose to come and set up our direcTv between 8 and noon.
so I cleaned and prepared a secure place to put the dogs.
Now at a little after 8 he calls and asks where we are located. I told him. He said WHERE!!!. I told him again. Well he siad your not coming up on my map quest.
so I asked where are you coming from. he wouldnt say, just complained about not finding us. So again I explained where we are.
Again, he grumbled so I couldnt understand him.
I again asked what direction are you coming from so I can direct you better.again, NO answer.
He just asked again how to get here.
I told him a different way. I asked do you know where Cottage grove and Roseburg are,He said yes.
I said we are about 1/2 way between the two towns right on I-5.
Thats so far away, I cant believe my boss would send me there. I'm in my own car, thats 45 miles away #### to himself under his breath.
I have to call my boss, I'll call you back later, but tellme again how to find you?
I said politely. I dont care how far away you are, I dont care if your boss is being unfair to you. I know your reimbursed for gas and mileage when your in your own car. You should be grateful to even have a job in these hard times.
I dont care what you do, just have someone here to Install my dish.
Goodbye.
well 45 minutes later, the phone rings and its a different man, very polite and said he was just given my job. He told me where he was and that he would work his way towards me since he already had his day planned and had a full day. But not to worry he would be here around 4 and would keep in touch with me during the day to let me know a closer time as the day progressed if that was ok with me.
I said yes and thanked him.
I called Greg and explained about my day and told him I had been sitting here thinking about keeping the dogs in the open area about 5 feet from where he would be on their leashes. Because both would be barking, showing their teeth with hair raised most of the time he would have been here.
I bet he would of finished in a hurry
what a start to my day
