Hot water is a bliss
Or so I thought on Friday when a technician finally, after two months, managed to get the hot water going without it coming out as brown yucky stuff, piping hot water or as hot steam.
We even got a new shower head and hose.
It was a bliss to take a shower Friday night, after not being able to sleep before my trip.
Saturday night I heard rummaging. I thought it was the neighbours.
I was too dead tired from the sleepless night and the trip to bother much.
Tonight at ten I heard rummaging again, went outside and it’s technicians on the roof.
I called them at four in the afternoon, told them the water is cold.
Now it’s eleven thirty and they just came back to fix whatever they started yesterday and today.
What goes on in these peoples minds? They play football at eleven at night and two am in the morning. They repair things in the middle of the night on a rooftop.
No point in letting security know, they already do.
And the manager doesn’t answer his mobile. As usual.
He will learn about it in the morning. Trust me.
This goes beyond being pissed.

So, they should fix stuff asap and good.
Well "should" is the key word I guess
Glad I'm not living where you live.
I would either go mad or turn into a technician myself

My toilet broke this morning. Water flusher? or how do you call it? is on all the time so I had to close the pipe.

I need to let the water run quite a while to get it warm.
@Dan - let me think about that one
@BLOGitse - where do I compare?
I complain, yes.
But I didn't say that it's better in Germany or Hungary, or did I?
Hier gab's auch ein ordentliches Gerumpele am Samstagabend, schreib' ich noch.

It switches from hot to normal to cold and back.....
Hubby goes and talks to the manager today.
I'll be with him and let him know that I'm not impressed that we are always the idiots where people jump around on the rooftop in the middle of the night, whereas they repair stuff elsewhere during the normal day hours
Hi Ben,

Months? Yeah, the good old military always has been good in supporting it's troops, no?
