Bah Humbug! I am so peeved with the Glazier contracted by State Housing. We have been waiting for years for our back sliding door to be fixed. We haven't even been able to lock it for MONTHS! The last time someone came to fix our door so that we could secure it was on Black Saturday (Feb 7th), when get this a PLUMBER came to place two pieces of wood down so that the door could not be opened. Which of course it could still be opened if forced. It has now been four months. We were told back then that someone would be out in two weeks to fix things properly. Well NO one came!!
Yesterday after many more phone calls to maintenance, the glazier finally rocked up to 'fix' the door frame. Gee Whiz. Why was it no surprise that the door frame and door that they brought with them didn't fit? I'll tell you why. They never measured the darned thing in the first place so they never had the correct measurements to start with. The two blokes that turned up were surprised that and wondered how they got the measurements that they did. Who knows, who cares? It doesn't FIT so it is NO good to me. They left without so much as a clue to their return! AND to top if off they brought black sticky icky silicon onto the carpet and ground it in with their bloody boots. Silicon does NOT come out! And they didn't even apologise for their blunder! I bet you can see why I feel so peeved at the moment!!
Mark phoned housing to let them know what went on and how the door was still NOT repaired. The Line Manager for the maintenance call centre phoned back to say that the contractors should be back on Tuesday NEXT week to 'finish' the job they were meant to have done yesterday. I wont hold my breath because they may not even turn up! I hope they get their act into gear!
