Jan, don't be silly !
As one of the "canes" that keeps getting leaned on really getting tired of it. Unfortunately I realized a long while ago retirement is no longer an option. I'll have to work until the day I finally flip my master power switch to off...Sounds like my job for the last 20 years. The guys who work hard pick up the slack for the guys who barly work at all. As a matter a fact sounds like every place I've ever worked in my life. And management just keeps leaning on the good guys because they have productivity goals to meet right now and its alot easier to lean on the good guys one more time than to go through the long agonizing task of trying to deal with the slackers so it never gets fixed.
Oh well, I gave up resenting it a couple years ago, accepted that's just the way it is and started happily counting the days to my rapidly approaching retirement instead.

If you ever do manage to pull a cake out of your arse, I don't want any as it will like any arse cake taste like sh*t

I had a new AO Smith hot water heater installed on 23 Dec 2018, $514 at Lowes plus $385 installation. This morning I was washing my face and noted that the water was at best lukewarm; it had been too hot after the new water heater was installed and I had turned it down. But advancing the temperature control brought no response from the unit. I turned it off and relit the pilot light, with the same results. It has failed after only 9 days in operation!
I'll get the plumber to come by and confirm my findings tomorrow; assuming he agrees with me, I'll call the AO Smith help line. No doubt they will lead me through various pointless procedures to convince them that their product has failed. Then I assume they will replace it and I'll have to pay another $385 to have the current POS taken out and another one put in.
But do I really want another AO Smith hot water heater? I think not.

I bought a brand new snow blower last week. Assembled it, filled the oil and gas, and pulled the starter cord. Wouldn't budge. Called Menards. They won't take it back because adding gas and oil makes it non-returnable. The manufacturer won't do anything until I've sent in the warranty card. Maybe I'll have it running before spring.

Does this mean that Frosty the snowman will have nothing to smile about?
The sense of dread on checking out the new posts on the forum to find dozens of ancient threads re opened with utterly pointless posts or even more stupid "what if threads" !
