The above picture is the plumbing contractor repairing the repair. The mind boggles. One guess as to who is the master plumber and who is the apprentice.
With summer coming, some residents are concerned about a/c. Seems it hasn't been hooked up.
Lucky me, I live on the third floor. Some insulation wasn't up to the winter temperatures and several pipes froze and broke. The damage was confined to the fourth floor. My upstairs neighbor had a few nights in a motel while her apartment was repaired. She was not a happy camper!
One bright spot is the resident building maintenance man. He does a great job and is quick to respond to any problem. He did fray my "man card" by having to show me how to reset a circuit breaker. My excuse? I've never seen the type used in this building.
Had a business trip to Sterling, CO in NE Colorado last week the day after a spring blizzard come through. Had to bypass on of my favorite places.
Ah, summer will be here soon enough.

Oh, boy...now that the building is occupied, we get to see the results of "low bidder" construction work.
Good to hear your on-site guy is a good one. Makes life much easier.
Where was the building inspectors?
Hah!
Probably kicking back somewhere having a beer.
Explain to the electrician that you understand fuses and vacuum tubes.
I used that line on a kid who fixed my AC last summer. He asked, “what’s a vacuum tube?”

Like me talking about punch cards. Huh!
Interesting that the A/C doesn’t work, considering it is a REQUIREMENT to get a COO... sighhh

Said they were waiting for warmer weather. Helps when it is a government agency leasing the building.
At least it gives you fodder for your blog and the ladies downstairs.

You don't say?
