$11K, peanuts. That is noooooooothing!

Last year my MIL who lives in a single family bungalow in Chicago got a monthly Electric Bill (ComEd) for ....... $94,000!!

I called ComEd for her, explained that it was utterly ridiculous and that the electric bill for Sears Tower's probably wasn't that much. BUT the first thing the lady said was .... "did I check to verify the meter reading indicated on the bill was right". I said no and plus I didn't care WHAT the meter reading was, $94,000 was an IMPOSSIBLILITY. She finally agreed to void 'that' bill until they could get another meter reader person out to her house. Two months later she received a corrected bill for $42.00

I swear, the world is full of idiots and they ALL work for the gubmint and utility companies.

LOL!
Not all...

On a recent trip one of my suitcases apparently fell off the airline luggage "train", was dragged under the cart God-knows-how-far to the point that the suitcase material was worn off and part of the clothes inside...

Upon presenting the remnants of the suitcase at the claims counter, the first question was... "Are you sure it wasn't already like that when you checked it in?"
