Dear Goddess, it's been a long week.

It all started last Saturday, when Telca woke me up at nine in the morning with the greeting "the house is broken". Not a very good way to wake up, (and an even worse way to spend the next five days). Turned out that our house was only receiving half power. So we called Hydro-Ottawa, who basically told us that it

You don't suppose you might have a case against them if you attempted to take them to court for damages do you?

as for the power box...is it really large? Perhaps you could hide it with a false mail-box or a larger one that has half of it inside the box itself? So it's not right there in plain ugly view?

Iunno, just thought about sending some helpful ideas your way...but I'm glad that everything is back to normal now for you and Telca!

Bad management

The problem was outside your house; ergo it was their problem. The fact they kept you waiting so long in addition to everything else, I would seriously consider suing them for damages to the property and mental aggravation. When Edison had to come out because of some electrical wiring that had caught a tree on fire, their machines bored holes in our ground; they didn't charge us for trampling our ground and in fact paid us back in grass seed. Rly unfair.
