So an interesting situation from yesterday.\u00a0 Jerry showed up on Waterstone at 6:30 p.m. and knocked so he could do the sprinkler blowout.\u00a0 No one answered, so he tried to get through the gate and it was locked.\u00a0 He marked it “couldn’t do” and put in the notes that the gate was locked and no one answered and went on his way as he was trained to do.\u00a0 A short time later I get a text saying they had waited all day, unlocked their gate, put the dogs away, etc., and finally gave up and locked everything back up……<\/p>\n
We are in a different zip code tomorrow, so we can’t go back for a while because we did everything we were supposed to do.\u00a0 If we don’t make it to a location we could squeeze them in the next day, but when we were actually there and find everything locked up we aren’t going to come back the next day because it wasn’t our fault.\u00a0 We followed what we were supposed to do.\u00a0 So, my question is why they waited around all day when it clearly shows on yesterday’s post their street was only a few from the bottom. That means late in the day.\u00a0 They got angry and canceled when I explained our policy.\u00a0 Thoughts, anyone?\u00a0 Comments welcome……<\/p>\n
We had a good run yesterday in the Meridian 83646 and Jesse finished up our current list in the Boise 83702. (Disclaimer: All except any that we couldn’t blow out for one reason or another, or ones that signed up after we had already done the route.)\u00a0 We will get to them on the next pass in the 83702.<\/p>\n
I have a lead on another machine.\u00a0 I will be checking it out Saturday morning, and if it’s as good as it appears I will be making the purchase.\u00a0 I will need to outfit it with a reel and wire in the electrical, and then find someone to run it.\u00a0 We are back hiring again!<\/p>\n
Today we will be in the Meridian 83642 with all 3 machines starting out with a 35 zone blowout Jesse will be doing. What a way to start the day……..\u00a0 That’ll wake him up!<\/p>\n
I had some routing issues for today so the auto text didn’t go out until a little after midnight, but still plenty of time for people to know when they wake up in the morning to make sure gates are unlocked so the guys can do their thing. Most of the routes below are city water systems as we want to get to properties with backflow preventers as quickly as possible since irrigation systems can go much longer without issues in colder weather.<\/p>\n
