Service calls
 
Doing TV service calls - nice old lady with no pic and no sound on her TV.
Wanted me to fix it, but refused to let me take the back off the set
'because you might get a shock and I'd be upset'

When I couldn't meet her request to fix the set with the back on, and depite
my explanation of why I needed to do that, she sent me away saying she would
try another TV repair firm.

David - who didn't have the heart to charge the old dear for the wasted call

Anyone got any weird or strange experiences when doing in home service?
Back in the early 80's when I did residential HVAC, I had so many that it
made me not want to do it any more and I switched to commercial.

Maybe that's where she kept her bong?

I was thinking she had her dead hubby crammed in there. Now that would
be a "shock"!
