I'll show them
I was getting ready for work when I looked out the window and saw the utility company starting to erect a pole in front of my house. They were going to position it directly in front of my picture window. No way, absolutely no way was I going to permit this. I gulped down my last bit of coffee and went directly to the crew supervisor and told him in no certain terms was I going to permit his crew to put that stupid electrical pole directly in front of my picture window. He took out a plat map, a map for pole locations and a right of way document and explained that it is the best location for it. I told him that it was not the best location for me and when I came home from work that day I didn not want to find that pole in front of my window.
I told him I didn't give a hoot where he put it as long as it wasn't in view of that window. I felt pretty smug as I drove off to work because I felt I had gotten my point across, I know they're afraid to put it there now....Ah.... the the feeling of power!
