This sucks...

BASTURDS

Good luck with furnace repair jonesy .

I was just talking to the wife, she pays more attention to the local news than me.

The LEFTY looting was in the city.
They broke into the Broadway Market which is run by the city and trashed all the vendor's areas.
They broke into a safe at a SAVE A LOT supermarket.
They broke into a Walmart, a Family Dollar and other stores looking for loot.

Buffalo looting: Mayor calls looters during blizzard the ‘lowest of the low’

Updated: Dec. 27, 2022, 8:20 a.m.

So, class...what have we learned?

The blizzard caused by Global Warming has inflicted much damage to those less fortunate. The looting was mainly peaceful.

Rinse, Lather and Repeat.

Hope they all do time and pay every penny worth of what they took. Worthless bastards

Since the temperatures are rising above freezing now and the highs will be in the 40's throughout this week and into the next week, and all that snow is going to melt I wonder if they will return all the stuff they peacefully looted and needed desperately to weather the storm?

Last night UCONN women played with only 7 players as one of their players was stuck in Buffalo. UCONN still won big.

Maybe she's in a Russian gulag because she got caught with a weed vape pen and can't get out?

I do feel for the good people with limited transportation relying on these stores for food, drink and medicines. The chitbirds loot and when these stores to either raise prices to offset what gets stolen or closed outright, making another desert. And to loot a store right next to the police station is a real head shaker.

So sorry to read jonesy. Make dam sure the insurance approves the work prior to company doing the work. Had issue basturd insurance adjuster tells me get Serv Pro and I do then I find out wasn't covered under policy. Basturds

Me thinks you give them too much credit for their ethics.

If you ever want to get yourself in a Chicken or the Egg kind of quandary, try to determine which industry has lower ethical standards- healthcare or auto & home insurance.
Used car dealers with warrantees of one day or 10 miles are certainly more ethical than either.

11 years in each for me. Irritated a lot of executives. ‘Damned Boy Scout’ is what one apparently said behind my back.

And I wonder why I didn’t thrive in those environments.

if it's not too late, hire an independent adjuster ASAP.
They usually work for 10% of what the Insurance company ends up paying but can make a yuuuuuggggge difference.

a little over a year ago we had two bathrooms wrecked by a flood in the upstairs master bath.
Insurance had (and paid for) the Service Master clean up then sent me an insult instead of a fair amount.
They used cell phone pics and hand drawn diagrams with descriptions from the clean up foreman to determine their liability and added wording that described how to get overage cost money by making my contractor become a highly skilled technical spec writer while producing physical proof of payments, receipts, all kinds of hoops to jump through...could have been done but very difficult. They also totally passed over secondary stuff like wire damage etc.

And they refused to send a company adjuster!

Local Building Inspector suggested a nearby Independent Adjuster and my fighting was over. Company immediately sent one of theirs to meet him here after his first write up, they went up a couple thousand. He told them to get serious, they sent another guy who met him here...they chatted, compared notes, he came down a little and they went way up.

Just for an idea of how it went start to finish...first check to me before my guy was hired: $3,800.
After the dust settled I ended up with a little over $20K.

Now that's not enough to totally remodel two full baths and a makeup vanity area (part of the master bath) but I told them I was an honorable man, didn't expect the value of brand new things to replace damaged 20 year old things, so I would not let my adjuster make up stuff. And I knew I'd have to go into my pocket for it to be the way we'd want new bathrooms if doing them by choice, so it still cost me a few shekels, but the Independent guy earned his $2,500.

magic happens here...
