TITC - RELATIONSHIPS - MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY AC

Fort Worth, TX

My AC and I are not on good terms right now. Not all relationships are good ones! LOL!

What was supposed to cost $65 because of insurance cost me $315 due to the fact the coils were dirty....the AC guy told me that I should clean them regularly which means taking the stupid thing apart! You gotta be kidding! He spent 10 minutes cleaniing the coils and then replaced a part that the insurance did pay for but $250 for cleaning the coils????? Give me a break! So, yesterday, was not a good day until he left I decided it wasn't worth getting upset anymore over. I'll be complaining to the company, of course.

Karen Stuebing		30-May-2009 14:32
I wouldn't break it just yet until summer is over. :) Great creative idea story and photo. V.

cits_4_pets		30-May-2009 07:22
Great action shot! V I think I'd complain to the BBB...sounds excessive for cleaning...

Jessica McCollum		29-May-2009 19:27
Although your image is great-I do not like your story Cindi!!! Our's has been out for 3 days now and the repair man is set to come this afternoon. I was excited because we were told there was only a minimal service fee! I hope that once he comes today we are not given the same story you were!!!

Ottimo work...Brava

Dan Chusid		29-May-2009 07:43
If you were a beer drinker I'd recommend going out for a 6 pack. Much cheaper and probably keep you just as cool for the short term. : )

Barbara Heide		29-May-2009 06:50
I fully understand you...!!!

Kerry Tingley		29-May-2009 04:25
Well thought out Cindi! We've all been there with fine print/

Evaristo Buendia Carrera		29-May-2009 03:00
I can't imaging summer without AC in Texas. Terrible. Take it easy, you're a wonderful woman.

carolynne_w		29-May-2009 02:44

sue anne		29-May-2009 02:40
LOL this is too funny (but serious) I like the pp treatment and this could turn out to be a movie!

Greg Christie		29-May-2009 01:58
Not a happy one then?

Glenn D.		29-May-2009 00:36
Can we buy tickets to take a whack at it too? What a great 'living out feelings' shot Cindi! BZ-V!

Guest		29-May-2009 00:26
Woah! Can't wait to see the video!

Guest		29-May-2009 00:23
Ah! those hate love relations, I'm sure u love your AC. :) Vµ

mathilda williams		28-May-2009 22:48
Absolutely not all relationships are good ones :) Hope you managed to knock some sense into it!

Guest		28-May-2009 22:08
Gosh. It has a real 'Shining' feel to it. (Heeeere's Cindi.....) Great shot!

Phillip Normanton		28-May-2009 21:53
I'm thinking that giving it a good clobbering with an iron bar probably isn't covered by insurance either - LOL. Great job!!

CreativeWiseGal		28-May-2009 20:33
What a story. Love the dramatic photo. Great photo journalism :-D

Robbie D70		28-May-2009 20:26
OOOOOH EEEER ! wouldent want to wind you up Boss . Great sepia shot,

Lee Rudd		28-May-2009 19:03
murdering the AC won't help!!! stay cool ;)

Kathryn		28-May-2009 18:50
'Just do it'! Wonderfully angry --- Great shot. I feel the fury.

Ron Gile		28-May-2009 18:38
Here in Juneau Alaska we will hit a high temp of 61 today( scorcher). We might see 75 degrees this weekend though. Should be the hottest weather of the year. I couldn't live in the hot climates like you guys down there. By the way our air conditioning is free here. Cheers, Ron

Nancy Good		28-May-2009 18:05
LOL ... brilliantly dark treatment to match your peeved mood!!

Sabine Stetson		28-May-2009 18:03
hope, the device is listening from now on....:)

Jeff Lobaugh		28-May-2009 17:52
So, is this the before or after shot????

Jola Dziubinska		28-May-2009 17:34
Great capture, first time I can see you that furious!!

Coleen Perilloux Landry		28-May-2009 16:51
LOL, a little maintenance goes a long way.

Laryl		28-May-2009 16:39
oh my! my a/c is on the roof.. anyone tells me I need to clean anything and they are going to get slapped LOL

J. Scott Coile		28-May-2009 16:35
Wait... wait... wait... PAY :-(

Ed Preston		28-May-2009 14:28
Looks more like your cleaning it's clock than it's coil! Great idea Cindi, and post the address of the company, we'll bombard them with letters!

Ann...		28-May-2009 13:47
Oh Cindi.... these things are truly frustrating when they don't work, when they do we hardly notice them!!!

Carol Rollins		28-May-2009 13:40
LOL! You left it in tact didn't you Cindi? The insurance company will not cover this!

Guest		28-May-2009 13:37
Yeah, cleaning the coils aren't covered under the warrantry. I paid over $300 to do mine. Remind me to show you how to do cleaning on your own..I can even do it with one arm! Just remember how happy you are going to be when it starts getting into 100 degrees and your house is nice and cool!

Mike Stobbs		28-May-2009 13:34
LOL....you may need to replace the coils if you keep that up.....fun shot Cindi.

BleuEvanescence		28-May-2009 13:24
As crazy as always...You are sooo too funny! Yes..it is not worth loosing energy over this...energy. Good luck with the company and..."cool" image ;)

Walter Otto Koenig		28-May-2009 13:23
Cool shot of you in action. You show that AC who is boss.

Ed McConnell		28-May-2009 13:19
great idea for the challenge..love the shot Cindi

Char		28-May-2009 13:02
That'll fix it! LOL Love it!!

pkocinski		28-May-2009 12:51
I tell you world - don't mess with this woman - LOL !

monica memoli		28-May-2009 12:43
Lol. v

Ken Duckert		28-May-2009 12:21
Does look a little hostile here. Did it ever come around to your way of thinking?

Guest		28-May-2009 11:54
This is a great shot.... luv the composition and tones. Well done! Jv V!

Guest		28-May-2009 11:47
I understand that feeling. :) Great shot!!!!

Maaike Huizer		28-May-2009 11:40
Wow, is it that bad??? Great shot.

Monte Stevens		28-May-2009 10:58
Whoa! Well if it wasn't broke before, it sure is now! I think I'll keep my distance until you cool down. LOL
