I Got No Gas
Posted by Andy on October 27th, 2005
Remember that natural gas explosion last year? It was blamed on faulty fittings that were commonly used at that time. Responsibly, the gas companies began a program to replace all of those fittings.
My neighborhood was one that had those fittings in it. They began the work here earlier this week. Great. I won’t blow up. I like that.
But they just got done with my gas line. 6PM at night. Now I have to call the gas company to come out, turn on the gas, and relight my appliances.
On the notice alerting us of the work being done, they said that would take 4 hours!
Wouldn’t it have been better to have some one from the gas company around to do that? You know, hae a guy in the neighborhood so that as people get home from work, there is some one there right away to get the gas back on? I think that may have been much better than making people call in and wait. Especially because they didn’t tell me that today was the day.
