The wrong house. - 06/05/14 01:14 AM
Have you ever set traps at the wrong house?
I did.
I received a text from my "administrative assistant" to meet a customer 11:30am at their home. I arrived at the address on time. No one is home. I call my "secretary" to get more details and verify the address. I was told by my "secretary" that I am at the correct house and squirrels are suppose to be entering the structure somewhere on the front porch. I inspect the front porch and sure enough on the far right column squirrels are entering the porch roof. My "administrative assistant" says to go ahead and set the job and don't worry about the homeowner that is MIA. I set the job and leave.
A few hours later My "CEO" gets a calls from my 11:30 customer wondering when will I show up.
Rut-Roh.
Turns out,the "CEO" gave me an address that was ten houses down from where I was suppose to be, and ironically the wrong house also had squirrels living in the front porch. Fortunately my "apprentice" felt bad for screwing things up and drove to the job site to straighten things out.
