My landlord has signed a maintenance contract with an HVAC company and they wanted to come out and make sure everything is in good working order. Everything works fine, there is no trouble...it's just their thing.
So, they called me to schedule and asked what time of day was best for me. I told them afternoon. They said they could be here at 8am. I told them I don't do early morning. I've told you all before how sometimes - a lot of times lately - when I wake up I have trouble focusing and maintaining my balance and it can last a couple of hours. Not always, but it's embarrassing and not something I want strangers in my home witnessing, Know what I mean?? So, they said they would be here at 10am today.
I couldn't get up this morning. Normally, I can drag myself out of bed and deal with the focus and balancing issues, but today I just couldn't. Told easy child he'd have to deal with the HVAC guy. Then the HVAC company called to cancel.
Their reason? It's too cold and it's supposed to rain. It's 67 degrees and it's just now at 5pm looking like rain. Not cold, not raining.
Can someone explain to me what in the world the weather has to do with the HVAC guy anyway? I'm not having any problems so it's not like he's going to be outside working on the AC unit. I'm just annoyed. When I reschedule, it will be when it's convenient for me, not them.
And that's another thing. Why is it that places ask what's the best time for you and then schedule the exact opposite? My neurologist is famous for that (you'd think they especially would get that). Ask me what time of day is best, tell them afternoon and all of my appointments have been 7:30 or 8am.
Ok. Mini vent over. Just annoyed at the absurdity.
