Tru

I had a rider today (I am beginning to see a trend). He was short, round and rather effeminate. In fact he reminded me of Truman Capote for some reason. He was very talkative, which wasn't quite to the point of being annoying but close. Ou first job was at a rather messy town-home. there appeared to be nothing wrong. Which happens often. So the best I can do is look around and try to find something wrong. In this case I didn't find much.
My next two jobs I should have never went to. Apparently there was an outage an everything was now working. Afterwards I went to the apartment of a very nice couple. The man had an almost creole accent. He was very chatty, he even followed us outside as we were looking at something out there. He was beginning to get on my nerves. Unfortunately I did not solve this problem right away, I ended up having to come back later, but I figured it out that time. In the end I was mad at myself for not catching it the first time.
The first job after lunch turned out not to be home. We then picked up an install. It was in one of my more favorite neighborhoods. They were remodeling the house, and it was looking very nice. The couple had foreign accents, I almost want to say African. They seem to be being doing well for themselves. He really wanted the soccer channels.
After that I went to a house that had been turned into two apartments. This specific one was missing a couple channels, but it looked like it came from farther up the system.
My last job turned out to be not at home. It seems strange that I did so little work, but it took up my full day.
