I Really Hope You Get Tetanus

A personal message to the fucker(s) who broke into my (brand-new) camping trailer by shattering a window this weekend.
They cut themselves, dripped blood around, and apparently were too stupid to figure out how to unlock the door to get out.
So they rummaged through all my stuff.
Eventually, it seems it dawned on them that I didn't leave a pile of cash, bottles of high-value prescription drugs, or expensive small electronics in the trailer. D'oh.
They went back out the window (about 6 feet above ground), leaving behind my "MGH NURSING: SIMPLY THE BEST" backpack, six dog leashes, a box of Milk Bones, my Eddie Vedder beer coozie and two pink plastic flamingos.
Don't get a tetanus shot. Please don't.

I thought there would be some police interest in the bloody prints on the side of the trailer, but the officer who investigated was about 11, and he wasn't particularly enthusiastic. I think maybe his parents don't let him watch CSI yet.
I bet the nursing backpack threw them off...they probably assumed that it was filled with prescription drugs since nurses always "just happen to carry drugs with them everywhere"... :roll:
Stupid criminals...don't they know how much those EV koozies go for on the black market!?!?!?

I can see the Kijiji ad now:
One (1) Eddie Vedder beer koozie,
vg condition.
Slight staining on logo (red wine).
$5 OBO.
Jackasses;
I hope the repair bill isn't too ridiculous.
Cheers.
The beer coozie was the first thing I saw when I opened the door and went in.
It was creepy, seeing my stuff strewn around. It could have been much, much worse though. As far as I can tell, they didn't damage anything else.
And yes, I checked the microwave and (shudder) the toilet.
Fuckers!
Several years ago something similar happened to a friend. They broke the window to get into his car, rummaged around, found nothing, went through all the CDs he had in the car, took absolutely nothing and left. Didn't even take the radio! So he had to pay however much it was to replace the window right away and clean up the mess they made. :fp:

Someone broke the window on my Honda once, took everything from the trunk, and left only my PJ tapes.
Guess they weren't a fan.
Or...
he/she was a TRUE fan,
+ though a thieving twit,
would NEVER desecrate
a fellow fan's collection.
HONOUR THE CODE!
Cheers.
Yeah, my co-worker's apartment was burgled, and the burglar was caught because he left out the orange juice container to which he decided to help himself. NYPD matched up the saliva with the perp, and he's in jail now.
And he really had to scale the building and perform some other acrobatics to get into the place. Dummy!
yeah, because the cats would've pointed them toward the good stuff
or just ran away and hid under the bed with Sweet Pea.

So here's the latest.
Called the dealership, where I spent $26k on this brand-new trailer in February. Service guy who answers the phone could not be less interested or less helpful. No, I can't bring it down and leave it there for them to fix. It could take a week, or a month, or maybe more for a new window to come in.
No, they can't take the measurements and order the window based on FOUR OF THE EXACT SAME UNITS that are currently on the lot because "the windows could be different sizes." IT"S THE EXACT SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL, I say. He replies, "But sometimes the carpeting and stuff is different." :fp: This was an idiot studying to be a moron.
Ask for the service manager, get the snippiest woman ever. No, I can't bring it down and leave it for them to fix. Says why can't I just measure it myself. I respond, "I don't even like to measure window treatments, if it's a millimeter off, it could leak or not fit properly and then I'll find that out when I'm driving at highway speeds." I say, "I would like to have a professional measure it. She says, "Don't you have a ruler? Can't you just measure it yourself?"
Finally she says she'll have the GM call me.
I call another RV dealership. Incredibly helpful and sympathetic lady answers the service desk phone, says they'll do whatver they can to help, but that it could be a couple of weeks. Suggests I call an auto glass company, see if they have a better turnaround time, and to call her back if I don't have any luck.
Called autoglass company. Also very helpful, think they might be able to fix it for me. And best of all... more excellent customer service!
I will not bring the RV back to the original dealership ever again. I don't care if I have to pay out of pocket for something that's under warranty. I wouldn't give them the time of day, let alone my business.
he is my new favorite person...that's an awesomely pointless response!
This is my new favorite quote ^^^

I know, right?!? I get more thoughful opinions from my semi-senile Coonhound.
I couldn't believe how awful they both were. The GM of the dealership called me back, but I'm waiting until I'm less infuriated to return the call.
I mean, I HAVE SENIORITY!!!!
:lolno:

No no...it's actually true. The carpet is often different...
yes, but if the stuff is different then we have a problem
true...the stuff needs to be absolutely identical.
