@Jade You might enjoy this story: https://notalwaysright.com/dont-have-a-cow-man-3/83961/

Story of my own: we (my parents and I) are in the process of remodeling the apartment I live in, so that we can put in a second roommate. One of the things was to replace the old fridge (a model from the early 2000s or perhaps more antique) with a spacier, more economical one.

-The delivery company says that they wrote down my number, and will give me a call 1-2 hours before they get to my place. I checked back with them because I wasn't sure what number my dad had given them. Turns out that they hadn't even written a number down.
-The day comes where they're supposed to do the delivery, I get no call. Because I have a bad gut feeling, I use up my lunch break to go home and hang up a post-it on the main door of the apartment block asking the delivery people to call my cellphone if they get there and can't reach me.
-Surprise surprise, I get a call at work about how they're in front of my door and nobody is there. They claim they called the number given to them an hour ago but nobody responded. Complete lie - they hadn't called any number - me, my parents, my home phone and certainly not the number I gave them. But they saw the post-it and called that number. ItsSomething.png
-Okay, so I'll be there in 10 minutes (lucky me, I live very close to my workplace). His response: "Yeeeah, we have other deliveries to make actually so we can't stay here forever. So if you could hurry a bit..."
-I get there, they bring the fridge into the apartment, plop it down, and only in the last second does the guy pull out the paper asking me to sign that the fridge is delivered etc. As if I'd sign without reading it first.
-Later turns out that my parents paid extra for the delivery people to unpack the fridge. Guess who got to do it instead? (I filed a complaint with the delivery company for that one)
-Upon inspection of the fridge for issues I notice that one of the copper pipes on the back has some green rust on it. I called the vendors right then... they sent an electrician (more accomodating than the delivery company, thank god). The good news is that the rust isn't threatening the fridge's lifespan, it's a byproduct of soldering the pipes together and comes off easily.
