View Full Version : service man
A man come out and fix my frig today. It was leaking water. It was at 3:30.( not a good time, kids just coming home from school) I have two Bipolar kids and Johnathon who has D. While he was fixing the frig Daniel (bipolar) was having a melt down because everyone was in his way at the table and he would not do his homework. He threw his self down on the floor and screamed etc... Johnathon sugar was high and he would not let me give him a shot and he was running away from me telling me he is not getting a shot. And my other son was acting out too. When the man was leaving he said "I just want to let you know what a special person it takes to take on kids like this. Not just anyone could do this. Their own parents can't even handle it. You are a strong person" I just said Thank You:D. I sure was not going to tell them they were MY KIDS;).>

And I bet you that repairman fixed your fridge in record time just so he could get out of there ASAP. You may want to keep that in mind if you have a repairman at your place again that's charging you buy the hour and you think he's intentionally dragging his feet so he can charge you more, if so then talk your kids into having another meltdown.:)

Let me guess on the fridge:
The drip tube was clogged. If that's what it was, its about a 10 minute fix.
If something around the house is not working you can always start on O/T thread here and maybe someone will suggest a fix you can do yourself that will save you some bucks.:)
