But at least you have the Blackberry, right?  You are a dedicated BPOer-sitting in the dark, checking out the board! :) Hope DH gets it fixed in a hurry!

AHHH...at last..at 430 today we got our electricity back...of course with hassel from the nstar guy...
He came this morning while i was doing dishes, he didn't knock he didn't do anything...i got a letter on the door knob that said owner not home, could not restore electricity because the main braker was not off.  Well it was indeed in the off position...tha t is how you spell it right... "off"??? Well the jack a** just left...i called and said that i was home waiting for him and he just left a note and didn't knock on the door.  They then said i would have to wait for 24-48 more hours to have it turned back on...when they said that...boy oh boy...i would be kicked off this site..lol.  But...he did come back today, he this time knocked on the door and said very slowly... like i didn't speak english... y-o-u  n-e-e-d t-o t-u-r-n o-f-f the main braker.... i said back in the same tone he gave me... I D-I-D...he then proceeds (like i am a dummy) and says you have to turn it off...and i said again... I DID...so he then he said that the electricity is still coming into the house, so i told him to come in and look....needle ss to say i was no dummy, yes i am female, and yes i know my stuff.....and he doubted me.  So he continued on his way, got the electricity on again, and i am sure he felt like a dumba** in the end because i was right the whole time, and this morning he could have fixed the electricity but he just didn't want to ask me about it!!!! I HATE THESE PEOPLE>..... this is why i have my BPOers

Ugh.  This is why I'm glad that 1) I pay the bills and 2) I have direct withdrawal from my checking for utilities because I'm not always so good at paying the bills.
