Helen's brother




The one on the bottom is mine, and the first one is Clayton's. It is really the second one Clayton bought. He went to Meek's Lumber in Berryville and got a generator yesterday morning. When he got home and started it up, it started but did not produce any power. He called Meek's Lumber and they told him to call the 1-800 number. That was only a recording telling him how to start it. Then he got a number for their nearest service center which was in Neosho, MO. There he got an old country boy that said they had probably forgot to connect something on the inside when they made it and yes he could fix it, but if it was him he would take it back where he got it. Clayton took it back to Meeks Lumber. They told him to call the 1-800 number. Clayton called them a few names. While they were discussing this in load tones, Clayton saw several people from work waiting. He told them he hoped they were not there to by generators because they did not work and Meeks would not stand behind their product. Clayton and the Meeks man went outside still arguring. There in the lot was a whole truck load of generators Meeks was wanting to sell to unsuspecting people like Clayton. Meeks said he did not want Clayton to go away mad. Clayton told him he was not mad he was pissed and he was not going away. He was going across the hyway and parking his truck with the generator in the back and he was putting a big sign on the generator saying don't buy one of these, they do not work. Clayton came home with a different, working generator. He is Helen's brother.

I will claim him ....nothing makes me as mad as bad service....you would think people like this would know why they has a job...or in this case why he had a business..I admit I can be an ass but when someone is PAYING me to be nice I can be nice....
