Appliance repair guy comes out yesterday and installs the “new, updated and improved” parts which he says won’t work and to call him when it ices up again so he can expedite the process for a new fridge.

I guess we don’t have that issue so it never crossed my mind.

Thats great to hear. Unless they’re moving you to lead the night shift.

So you’re going to pull everything out of the fridge and set it to the lowest setting possible?

No, It will ice up again, because it is a shitty design with no defrost cycle. Cadillac of fridges my ***.


On another note, this handy little guide was included in the South Dakota packet so we can find the advanced rides!

That will lead to early retirement. Finding competent machinists, let alone guys that want to work nights is next to impossible.
