First, the repetitive bad news.

Last night it rained a lot. We’re talking landslide and flooding creeks sort of a lot. It rains all winter here, but we’re not big on volume, and this January was in the top 10 of rainfall somewhere. Just where I don’t know because I wasn’t paying enough attention during the weather report. Anyway, the sound of the rain PLUS THE SOUND OF MY WINDOW were waking me up last night. I called Pella again, and the guy knew exactly who it was. I mean, he seems nice enough but he’s not doing all that much for me. Oh, well, I figure I’ll keep bugging him until he tells me to shove it and then I’ll just have to remove the window and leave the shards in the Pella parking lot.

In any case, I’m still writing about it here because I haven’t written it down anywhere else and I may need a coherent record of what I did and how annoying the window is to me. Just in case, you see.

And that’s about it. I was going to be put on another megacorp project, but it looks like that’s not going to happen. All the same old stuff. My paychecks keep coming in and I keep staying late. It’s a megacorp tradition, after all.

  1. A random bit of unsolicited advice —

    Write to Pella AND document all calls — in fact, in your letter(s), MENTION all the calls and times/dates.

    First, it will show them just how chronically unhelpful they’ve been and second it is good fodder for future action.

    I would make an ultimatum — as in, “if we cannot resolve this issue in a reasonable manner by ___(date), then come and remove your product from my edifice no later than ____(date) and refund my money.”

    Good luck — how annoying.

  2. wow
    what a pain in the butt

    I know who NOT to order windows from…and you can quote me on that in your letters to them!

  3. I’m going to throw your ass through that window next time I’m in Ptown and send them a picture of it…..they’ll probably give me free windows for life!!!

    Just kidding!! Have you written to the better business bureau?

    And, lastly, are you sure you just don’t like having something to bitch about???

    Really, I am just kidding!!!

  4. megan is really cracking me up. i’ll help her throw you threw it. then at least SOMEONE will have gotten joy out of that window even tho it won’t be you. dork.

  5. Megan is so funny. HA HAHAHHAAAAAAAA.
    Anyway, did you guys lose power? I heard NW went black the other night. Also, I found a good optometrist out by megacorp, and I think he needs the business, so let me know if you need a new optometrist. I *might* go there, but it’s so dang far.
