[QUOTE="THAT Gurl, post: 3897239, member: 45551"] I know it's an old thread but Chris bumped it and I'm sitting in a dark, rather chilly house right now so here goes ... Hired this guy to come put in a new box and an outlet for the new freezer that should have been delivered yesterday (that's for a thread all it's own 😡😡😡) ... Anyhooooooo ... My neighbor the contractor was remodeling the kitchen (fired him in the middle of his job -- that is also for another thread 😡😡😡). This work included putting in a new stove. Today I find out that he wired my electric oven/stove to the same wire that was run to the outlet which our toaster and coffee pot are plugged in to. Not a big deal?? Well I guess it wouldn't have been except the outlet is 20 amp and the stove is 50 amp. It is my most fervent wish that that SOBs house burns down while he's cooking dinner some evening. Lazy bastard. I couldn't live with myself if I'd done something like that. You don't **** around with electricity. Dammit. Ok. There. I said my piece. I gotta put my boots on and get on to work. Oh ... And btw ... Watch your vehicles. A co-worker, who parks about halfway between the store and 7-11 out in our parking lot had her catalytic convertet stolen last night while she was at work. 😡😡😡 ****ing thieves ... 😡😡😡 [/QUOTE]
