I was getting ready for work when I looked out
the window and saw the phone company
starting to erect a pole in front of my house. They were going to position it directly in front of my picture window.
No way, absolutely no way was I going to permit
this. I gulped down my last bit of coffee
and went directly to the crew supervisor and told him in no uncertain terms that I was not going to permit his
crew to put that stupid Telephone pole
directly in front of my picture window.
He took out a map for pole locations and a right of way document and
explained that it is the best location for it.
I told him it is not the best location
for me and when I came home from work that day I did not want to find that pole in front of my window.
I told him I didn't give a hoot where he put it but not in front of my
window. I felt pretty smug as I drove off to work
because I felt I got my point across.
I know darn well they are afraid to put it there now.
Ahhhh..... the feeling of power............

And Gene Redman has a warped sense of humor!
