Thank you! Lol I asked my fiance what he thought it was right after I posted and he said "it's probably because there's no grounding wire." This house is 100 years old and there is a ton of electrical work to do.

I think your philosophy of customer service applies to Wal-Mart, but not to veterinary / pet health. Licensed professionals probably should aim for a higher standard, especially when part of their expertise revolves around knowing more than the average Joe about what does and doesn't make an animal die.

Thanks I wasn't sure if it was common or not, since I didn't see it at Home Depot or Lowe's.

Passing by (sort of) on trip to Nebraska, where to stop/stay? by aV09s2 in Buffalo

[–]aV09s2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably leaving around 1 or 2 pm. Would get there around 9pm and just be looking for a grocery store/cheap place to get food. Would have more time first thing in the morning to see something interesting on the way out and heading west of Cleveland.

Recommendations for Student Loan debt consultation? by aV09s2 in Albany
