Well, that depends....he might be getting service courtesy of the taxpayers! :guns

Be careful out there man! It's not worth it....glad you didn't get shot at.

Where I work...in South Central, you have to have eyes in the back of your head. There are loonies on every corner and in every car. You might have seen the news 2 days ago - 2 Sheriffs shot making a stop......3 blocks from my factory! :eek

We had a guy come in to the office and pull a gun on the district manager for not connecting his service.   :eek  :D

It's the wild wild west sometimes.   :guns  :guns :D

In all honesty I'm suprised it doesn't happen more often.  Anymore, alot of our disconnects are for dead beat tweekers to busy cooking meth to pay the bills.  Alot of the time, they get disconnected at the transformer.

Had a cop pull a gun on me years ago here at my store.. I was just a kid at the time, maybe 12ish. Store was closed but I was hanging with my dad doodling around...I was( :rolleyes ) making sure all the soda labels were facing right side up in the soda machine and the cop had his gun drawn and aimed at the back of my head. I almost peed myself.
That was the last time I bothered with the soda BOTTLE machine......

That is crazy!!  Hope you get extra hazardous pay!

Zig, I don't get it, why did the cop pull the gun on you?  Did he think you weren't supposed to be there or something?  Seems to me to pull a gun on a kid, you'd better think your life or someone else's is in danger.  Or am I missing something?

I never cut anyone's electricity off, but I refused to cash someone's handwritten payroll check before.  After I walked away, I got jumped from behind in front of around 20 people. :eek The guy never got me on the ground, but my elbow hit a copy machine so hard that it split open requiring stitches. :angry

What's really frustrating is that most the time the companies don't take legal action because it's more expensive to pursue than it is to take the hit

My labor and the truck cutting and reconnecting is more than $200. and no gun in the face :stupid  :angry
