Nuerous episodes where things were powered up, and sure enough, Porn was playing away - some was homemade...

ok, we have that cable, but are you sure you want the powered drop cable? that isn't the one to use when you tie into an existing NMEA2000 network. that cables passes power through from the Fusion stereo onto the network to power up Fusion wired controllers. i think this is the one you probably want: [Link: fusionelectronics.com]If not, then I have tons of the 864s lying around, i could definitely ship you one of them for the cost of shipping, or i could drop it off to you if i had my bike stolen when a group of kids pushed me off of it at Lincoln park pool. i learned to walk from then on. That's great- I got that part number from tech support, too. He said the MS-IP700 would receive its power from the NMEA trunk, once the adapter was in place- I'll call them again and get the scoop. Not a huge hurry, but I want the right parts. I lost my 1st bike at Parkway, in 5th Grade and it was locked, too. Saw the a$$hole ride away on it. That was a couple of months after the riots- go figure. Must have felt empowered. Lost three more- one at a friends' house (next to his ten speed, another at QuikPleez (I chased that turd, but he took off when he saw that I was really close to grabbing him). The last one was in my parents' garage- stole my dad's snowblower, too- dragged it across the hood of his '56 T-Bird. The family of the 3rd one liked the neighborhood so much they moved there. From 17th & North. Trashed it in near-record time and after one of the kids popped out a kid of their own, that little turdlet pulled a knife on his 4th Grade teacher. The problem there was that she lived a block away. She quit almost immediately, to teach at Henry Clay Grade School.

I had one wife of a client who would purposely work out bra-less every time any of our crew was in the house. She would strike up conversations and wait for your gaze to drift downward....
One woman invited me to get in the hot tub with her, to which I respectfully declined.
Lastly, one of our South Florida clients who lived with his partner would continually pour me drinks while I was working and try to get me to party with him. I would continually refuse and he would proceed to enjoy both cocktails himself.
I have a lot more, but these are the ones I distinctly remember. That's awesome... well, except for the third one. Not that there is anything wrong with that...

Years ago we had a simple tv delivery, Sony xbr 450. Heavy!! Knocked on door and lady said good morning, and showed us where it went.
Hooked up cable box and DVD player to it and were done. Job was prepaid, so we said goodbye and left.
A few mins after we left we got a call from my boss, asking why we were not at the job yet. Client called and was waiting.
Come to find out, they had recently gotten divorced, we had HER address (she got the house) and she played it off perfectly and now she had a new TV!

Nuerous episodes where things were powered up, and sure enough, Porn was playing away - some was homemade... I have told this story many times before but... My very first week on the job i am with the lead tech at a service call for a VCR. This was training so i was being taught everything from using a map book to looking for parking to bringing my own media for testing CD/VHS etc. I remember being warned about using my own media incase the component was eating tapes or scratching discs. I was also warned about pornography being in the players. As soon as we get to the house the wife (late 60's early 70's) walks us to her husbands den. Lead tech presses the power button on the TV then presses play on the VCR and we have porno on the TV and blasting through the speakers in the cabinet. Wife just walks out of the room without saying a word.

We nicknamed him "double install" for obvious reasons. He was once caught taking a shower with a clients wife by her husband. That was just the tip of the iceberg!!!
