Thanksgiving is a stressful holiday for appliance dealers with service. When I was a service manager, I would be reminded of the many parties ruined if that service guy didn’t fix the range.
All those great parties that I was never invited too...
Then about 10 years ago, I was invited to a neighbor’s house who bought her appliances at Yale. The stove didn’t work the day of the holiday, so we routed a tech to her home.
Naturally, it was a whole clock housing which we could only FedEx the next day. My neighbor was worried because she had a big brisket to be cooked.
I still remember being soaked with meat gravy as I dragged that brisket to my house to be cooked in my oven. I don’t even eat meat.
Anyways, I hope you have a nice Thanksgiving. If you don’t have a neighbor willing to cook your bird and are having a bad day, read the following articles about cooking and appliances, in general, to save you from future stress.
Then, you can be ready for the next holiday.
