An unlucky week for me and my family. Electrical appliances keep braking down one after another.
First, it was the refrigerator. After careful analysis, the service engineer told us that the motor overstressed. And so he replaced the old motor, which has been working for the past 10 years , to a new one.
Two days later, my dad found out that the washing machine broke down. Further scrutiny, the timer device and some other electrical control peripheral all malfunction at the same time. Needless to say, all the parts need replacement. This brings up the total service and replacement parts cost to a frightening RM400! And so again, my parents decide to purchase a new washing machine since the current one has been serving us for the past 14 years. Time to change for a better one.
The following is a funny one. How many people have encountered a spoilt electric meter? Well, I have just seen one in my house. A service man from TNB came to read my house’s electric meter today and to his amazement, the meter reading that he has just taken is the same as that of the reading he took last month. I don’t want to comment on this happy thought of mine too early because I don’t know whether they will waive last month usage from our bill. Anyway, he has called to his headquarter requesting for the meter to be repaired.
The story doesn’t end here. My mom just discovered that our electric gate failed to work after punching several times on the remote control button. I tell you, this week is very 衰 for us. Well I guess we should look at the bright side for getting new stuffs for our house. But not so bright when it comes to spending money. What to do? Sigh…
