Lecture On Applied Appliances - Saga of the Maytag Man - Series No. 8 [PHDMUSA]

"Lecture On Applied Appliances ... ..." is the only of this series which actually addresses the fact that in spite of how some can easily delegate the status of "just something in the house" to appliances, that, they are more. We discover and dissect reasons appliances are very much "part of the home." It follows that, since this is invariably proven to be true, that when they breakdown or are in need of repair or replacement, it becomes a "home maintenance/improvement" project.

Further, we investigate the fact that companies which normally respond to issues for appliances which malfunction are actually "contract firms," and if the technicians who arrive own these contract firms (more colloquially known as "appliance repair shops"), then they are "contractors." They are not just technicians or repairmen. This is especially so if they are not sub-contracted out by the contract firms or employees, thereof.

These revelations rate a very special concern since the people considered for possibly diagnosing and troubleshooting your home appliance challenges are treated with far less precaution than those who are summoned to install drywall, paint a room, repair staircases, replace gutters, etc... etc ... However, the purpose of "Lecture On Applied Appliances ... ..." is to share with dramatic emphasis the fact that since "appliance repair shops" are actually contract firms, and since the people operating them are "contractors," there should be no less protocol for running a thorough reputation check or service validation as you would any other contractor. The reason is that the risks are about the same.. Scandalous contractors have long since infiltrated and discredited the ranks of honest contractors in every conceivable aspect of "the trades," including home appliances.

In this work, you also see how the traditional image of "The Lonliest Guy In Town" (The Maytag Man) also factors into the trust levels which many of our private home heads have for appliance technicians. This is especially so for our older population. However, there are many of the younger contingent among us whom have also seen and relished that image catching the "re-runs." This is only a contributory factor among others (rather than the major) which influences less aggressive or assertive approaches towards appliances technicians. Nevertheless, once you experience this close examination of true-to-life situations, you will be convinced that it is earnestly necessary to be a bit more particular about the sort of appliance" technician" you invite into your home. Most certainly, you will find there is not a "Maytag Man" among them!

"Lecture On Applied Appliances ... ..." is most certainly an eye-opener for any U.S. private home head in terms of appliance repair shops and the appliance repair techs who own and operate them. This moment will most certainly provide you with a far better view of their actual status with respect to "the trades." And, perhaps, you will fine tune your protocol for home improvement accordingly.
