Apparently, last Friday one of the neighbor's visitors parked next to our house and hit the water meter, broke it, and left without saying a word. Our driver woke up in the morning to find that the street was full (flooded as he explained) with water and called emergency hotline.
On Sunday afternoon some workers came to shut down the water supply to our house, explaining that they were given those orders! To make the problem even worse my dad wasn’t home so I had to talk to them with my sister and the driver gave me the number of the person to talk to.. HE WAS SO RUDE!!! I basically was talking nicely and politely to him, he said I have orders and I follow orders. I was trying to tell him in many ways that people are living in the house.. he told me with a tone..
"the water will be shut down today whether you like it or not.. even if I had to bring the whole police station on your head" (some of it is lost in translation)!!!!
Whatta civilized person to be working and answering the emergency hotline! I saved his cell phone number, but I did not do anything about it! I don’t know if its worth it.. I mean to try and get back at him!
The good part is that water is STILL running, because I had to call someone else to fix the problem! Come on! We are not robots or computerized to follow orders.. I mean they want to follow orders when they want and when they feel like doing so! How stupid!

LOL I told him that a whole family lives in this house, and my dad is not home.. I kinda was like "please" and "may you/would you" please understand.. this is a misscommunication... but he kept saying NO! Orders are orders and its not up to you lady!
Then I told him I will not allow the people out to shut down the water.. and if I have to I will stand next to the water meter! He said I will bring the whole police station to you!
grey yeah I can see that LOL
What an idiot ! you should complain to his seniors ! but like you said ! he's not worth it !
Grey-
Yeah my dad wrote down his number and was SO CLOSE to complain.. but I told him not to.. Its just not worth it!
What the Hell !! :@ ..
he pissed me off !! what if i was the one who's talking to him nicely !! @@ ..
OMG !! damn to him and all RUDE ones !!!!!!
shame to have such as those working in KUWAIT !! i mean i knew kuwitis are not perfect but he's answering a line where many and many might call to ask for help !! they must study well about whom to put and who deserve to show kuwait in a good way !!
:/
And whats going on with your neighbours by the way :P heheh they have to be included in the List of Teaching them how to treat others in a good manner !!
u shud have said to him yeeb ly wazeer el dakheleya ba3ad
lol at police raining down on your head!
i reckon he was pissed cos alot of people who dont pay their bills will call and plead not to turn the water off.
but yeah moron for not even checking why you were calling and what the work order was.
then again he probably doesnt even know what a "work order" is :P
Breeze-
I know what you mean.. and I dont think one of the neighbors is actually the one who broke it down. I think its one of their visitors, and maybe they didnt know they broke it (lol yeah right)
Enigma-
LOL yeah.. but I felt silly telling him I will stand next to it if I had to :-P
Skunk-
