Remember the gas co. guy who walked on top of my car?

In case you don't, back in March some idiot meter reader walked on top of one of my cars because he was too fat to walk around it (read about it here )http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=169586

Anyhow, after months of calls to the gas company, about 6 different estimates and tons of emails. Here's the outcome (see photo):

I never called the cops or anyone else during all this, just worked with the gas company. The moral of this story is that if a utility employee does something to your property, call them out on it and they just might do you right.

PS: And rather than have the bodyshop fix it, I'm gonna buy myself a Miller 185 and have enrolled in some cl***es at the local CC and will fix it myself. That way, instead of having my car fixed I will have it fixed and know how to chop tops too.

 

Good for you.

 

Nice guys do finish first.

 

awesome

 

Nice Work on your part!
- But you can bet his union likely got him a raise out of the deal

 

Glad to see it worked out for you!

 

Occasionally there is a good ending to the story......

 

Man thats great! Good for you.

 

I remember this deal, glad you came out on top!
Congrats!

 

That's bigger than my monthly paycheck.

 

Pocket the money & get a few people to push the roof up with there feet!!lol

I love happy endings

 

. Self insured.... Good Job, enjoy your new welder...H

 

Awesome !! Glad the ****ers paid up.

 

Glad you got payed but he still needs his *** kicked.

 

hey man...............could ya spot me a $50...???? haha

 

Keep an eye on your gas bill, I bet it goes up like crazy this winter.

 

That's awesome. It's about time the big corporations take responsibility.

 

Great that you got it...and even better that your are putting the money towards a new skill...congrats

 

don't tell your wife, she'll want you to spend it on her

 

****!!! I'm gonna have to have the gas guy in my hood walk all over my wagon and have them cut me a nice check!!!! J/K! Glad to see the outcome came out in your favor. KNUX!

 

Cool man glad it worked out ! I would keep the gate locked and put a vw there for him to step on maybe get a check a month ?

 

That is really great i fight all the time with the damn electric company, the idiot meter reader always breaks boards on my 7 foot tall fence. It never fails, his *** grabs on to it and snaps the top off just at the highest 2x4. It has not happened in 2 months, guess because of all my complaints. there is no reason he can not follow the notes they have in their computers and RING thE DOOR BELL.. My mom lives here and is home all day every day, and so has my mother in law as well. I have been home too since may, Due to my car accident. except for the 2 weeks we went to Cabo. So anyhow I am glad you got some res***ution. That is the kind of lazy **** noone needs, and that ******* should have lost his job too. Dis-Respect of others property is totally un called for.

 

Yep, I remember yer post. Glad to see it worked out in the end but it still ****s that all had to happen.

 

sh!t, i thought it said $250.00 at first. that's pretty cool!

 

Woohoo, vindication.

I've actually thought about your story a few times since then and wondered how it turned out. How lucky for you.

 

Glad to see that it finally worked out for you.

 

Its just a piece of paper...Cash it then show the stacks!!!

 

Finally, a silver lining. Thats great!

 

Sticking to your guns pays off, good for you Bro !
