This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Probably paid that much in drive time for the guys by gozer

To come out here twice(once to see what was wrong and find out what the pump was, and then they had to come back with the new one). Not sure what size the pump is but it’s pretty deep- think it’s about 400’ of lift by the time it gets to our cabin, and through a total of about a quarter mile of pipe. And when you can’t flush a toilet or take a shower or cook dinner or bathe the kids you’re probably not going to be real big on shopping around for price. And as I recall in a lovely bit of timing I had a stomach virus at the time...
