Seriously, someone should call the local electrical and/or fire inspector about that. I've never seen NM cable coming out of an exterior wall with no conduit. Crazy. Is that electrical tape on there?

That opening where all those cables exit... there isn't any sealer or gasket to keep rainwater from getting into the wall. Is that also a air conditioning condessation drain tube or pipe??? Nice.

Got up at 4:30 to finish a proposal and some other paperwork, so I can go down to Lk. Washington to watch the Blue Angels practice fly-overs today. Perfect sunny weather, should be great. Going to finish a few details on a job in the late afternoon after the Angels & when rush hour traffic is over (cooler too)! 8>)
Also a few big unlimited hydroplanes will be out testing & qualifying for Sunday's big race...

Here is your competition boys  and notice this fine installation is supplied buy this 6ft brown christmass tree extension cord, ground lifts and all. Cord is rated for 1400 watts. The 4 Z660s alone draw 1760.  I cant imagine why the tuner doesnt work well.  my personal favorite is the 25 foot phone cord going less then a foot. I would love to give out the name of this firm to prospective clients. They have an add in a local magasine that claims "the cleanest, most proffessional installation available".

Oh we are not finished yet, yes this is the master bedroom of a 4 million dollar home.  Oh I dont know why your phone lines dont work.  I picked up this mess to throw it away as I thought it was scrap wire all wound around the duct work. nope the actual phone lines in a brand new house. Where do you even find cat3? I was lucky enough to run into the installer while I was there  Too bad I didnt get a shot of the boston cube speakers habging from the ceiling in the living room.

Yep, that may be the worst I have seen. Is that their "equipment room"?
I like the racks. Look, they even have casters for servicing.
What did you tell them? Pretty sure its time to rip out and redo.

We can do it my way, or we can do it my way while I yell. The choice is yours. |

Here is your competition boys Holy S#!t You win. The only other job I've seen that come close to that diabolical skid-mark on the underpants of the C.I. industry is the one that was assessed by The Gerhardt Group. Awesome.
