Mr. 6915 Thinks I Called The Fire Dept. On Him…
At some point I was coming home from work and the elderly lady that lives across the street was in a panic waving at me. I went over to see what she needed and she said “That man’s house is on fire” while pointing at Mr. 6915’s house. Sure enough there was smoke coming from his driveway. Even though he treats us like crap, I went over and walked half way down his driveway calling his name over and over. He didn’t reply and just about that time a fire truck shows up with it’s siren on. So, NOW, Mr. 6915 comes walking out of his gate at the back of his driveway and see me standing there with a Firefighter. Yeah… He thinks I called them. It would look that to me if I were in his shoes at that very moment. It was actually the little old lady across the street that called them. Anyway, he goes ballistic! Yelling, “You see what I got to put up with!” He goes on to tell the firemen, as if it were relevant, they got camera watching me all the time. Right there and then, in front of the Firefighter, I said in the kindest voice I could muster, “Mr. Charles” please let me show you what our cameras see. We do not have any cameras that can see in your property. Please let me show you”. I said that several times but he was seeing red and wasn’t hearing a word I was saying. I tried to explain to him that the little old lady flagged me down as I was getting home thinking your house was on fire. He wasn’t hearing a word I was saying. The Firemen seemed dumbfounded by how Mr. 6915 was acting. Bottom line, he was burning branches in his back yard and that’s where the smoke was coming from. Ironically, and you won’t believe this, this is after he has called the Fire Department on us in the past for doing the same thing. Talk about hypocritical. Frankly, I would have been justified for calling them but it wasn’t me.
