Cable Guy!

So, on Saturday, the Cable Guy came to install cable in the guest bedroom upstairs. We got a new TV to go in there and wanted cable. So, the guy measured very carefully, went into the bedroom and drilled a hole into the garage for the cable and drilled right through our sprinkler main control box. See the nice little hole under the last round blue thing. The guy was horrified. I had to turn the water for the sprinklers on so we could test each station. Sure enough, the last three did not work. We moved the box over so he could finish installing the cable as he already had a hole drilled in the bedroom. He said his supervisor would call me on Monday to get it taken care of. I also have the supervisors number just in case he doesn't call.

The Luck of Carl

Oh well, looks like I will get a new sprinkler main control.

When the cable supervisor calls, be sure to mention all your pain and suffering....and next time, call Pro Electric!

Our cable guys are usually very reluctant to drill holes of any kind. That's probably why.

You dont have kids living with you anymore to complicate your life so now you have to invite strange people like repairmen over to stir things up a bit.
