No Line of Site


Ok, so today we're gonna starte at the end of my day, 'cause customer number 1 is too good to lead in with. So I get to my last job after not doing a damn thing all day, but driving hour after hour from one rescheduled job to another. lol! I knock, and she opens the door..."Are you here to fix my satellite tv?" NO.... why would i do that??? Then she says, "I'm not getting anything on either of my tvs. If you see to the right all I can say is I wonder why!!!! Really? You don't know why there's no reception? Take a WILD GUESS!!!

Moving on to my first customer. I pull in, and this man's driveway is a dirt road through a forrest! So i'm really expecting to find a dish also not able to recieve signal. I pull in, and sure enough.... A BUNCH OF TREES!! I double check it and sure enough, there is? no line of sight. I get to the door, and no one answers. I call him, and he says, "oh, you're here? I though my appointment was from 8 to 12" Well sir, it's 8:30. "8:30? Oh maybe I should get ready" YA THINK?!?!?! So he gets to the door, and walks away... ummm do I just walk in? WIERD! So he FINALLY comes back to the door, and unlocks it, lets me in. Well I can tell you that you have trees in the way, and unforunately there's no where I can move the dish to. "So its not working, I want to watch the lakers." Um sir, I can tell you that the trees are in your way, and um thats whats causing your problem. His eyes... completely glazed over. so I take him outside, and he asks where the dish has to point to, and I say south southwest. "Why?" Cause thats where the satellites are located at. "why did they put them there?" REALLY?!?! Cause thats where they put them, who cares why! So then he says "but we've had you guys for four years, and there was never a problem before." Thats right... cuz trees don't GROW! Naaaaaa, that couldn't be it... no that doesn't happen... His next statement damn near FLOORED me!! "Why can't you put my dish up in the sky?" COME ON MAN!!! IN THE SKY? How the hell am I supposed to do that? Am i supposed to construct a device to suspend your dish high above the trees in mid air?!?! Or should I go get a step ladder and hold your damned dish?!?! Maybe you should go hire yourself a mexican to hold it for you!!! Cause this mexican gets paid a hell of a lot more than you can afford! Not to mention YOU'RE BAT SHIT CRAZY!!! And I'm outta here! You looney bastard!!!

  1. Sooo...Nice pic! How did you get rid of the logo? Photoshop, sun-fade, or natural "overgrowth"?

  2. Lmfao People are freakin crazy. Let me tell you. I had this customer on Sat night that was filling out a membership form. I was inputing his credit card info and I asked him to give me his last 4 digits on his card......and he said......."so you want me to give you my pin numer for the card? Ok here it is." I said wait!!! I do not want you pin number please do not give it to me! Are you f-in kidding me?? To bad he was southern trash and there was probably no money on the card or I could have went on a spree. lol
