Another freakin' boil order? Are you effin' kidding me?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!!?

Hello, my name is daily dose of dahl and I have an anger management problem when it comes to the water running through the apparently poisoned, corroded pipes that are attached to our housing unit. Apparently.

I went to pick up the kids from Y camp and saw, as I drove back into our complex, that there is ANOTHER *$#$#@$!&%&$& boil order in effect for our housing neighborhood.

The base Facebook page had this to say:
There is a boil order now through Tuesday at 11 p.m. for residents of *Crappy Housing*  Landing.


There was no breach of the water system. Water pressure was low
enough earlier today to initiate a precautionary boil order. Water samples will be analyzed prior to lifting the boil order. 

Bottled water should be used for drinking, cooking, washing fresh fruit and vegetables, hand washing and brushing teeth.

Affected tap water should be used for these purposed ONLY after it has been brought to a rolling boil for 5 minutes. Do not boil the water for a longer period of time.

Affected tap water may be used for washing dishes IF the dishwasher is used AND the dishes are then immersed for at least one minute in a sink of water to which one tablespoon of household bleach per gallon of water has been added. If dishes are hand washed, boiled or bottled water should be used.

Affected tap water may be used for bathing, showering and household
cleaning. Please check www.*crappy*familyhousing.com for updates as they become available.





*I have subbed my nickname for this housing area from the real one to (apparently) protect the dumba$$es*

This ticks me off for so many reasons. Please, allow me to articulate translate the perceived meaning in an effort to rid myself of harmful and pointless rage. This may be a repeat of the last time it happened, but since I still need to vent, I'm not even going to go and check cause that's how I roll in a snit.

So, here we go:


There is a boil order now through Tuesday at 11 p.m. for residents of *Crappy Housing*  Landing. Because you are stuck in base housing and we can try and kill you if we want to. I mean, after all, we are already over charging you for rent. Muahhahahaaaa!

There was no breach of the water system. Water pressure was low
enough earlier today to initiate a precautionary boil order. Water samples will be analyzed prior to lifting the boil order. Maybe. We think. Whatever. We don't live there and frankly don't give a crap.

Bottled water should be used for drinking, cooking, washing fresh fruit and vegetables, hand washing and brushing teeth. DUH! Have you seen the swamp land around here? Seriously, people! Use your brains!

Affected tap water should be used for these purposed ONLY after it has been brought to a rolling boil for 5 minutes. Do not boil the water for a longer period of time. Boiling for longer will reactivate the (air quotes) possible (end air quotes) harmful bacteria/swamp water parasites.

Affected tap water may be used for washing dishes IF the dishwasher is used AND the dishes are then immersed for at least one minute in a sink of water to which one tablespoon of household bleach per gallon of water has been added. If dishes are hand washed, boiled or bottled water should be used. What we are trying to tell is you is DO NOT USE THE WATER. God, you people are hard headed.

Affected tap water may be used for bathing, showering and household
cleaning. Please check www.*crappy*familyhousing.com for updates as they become available. Ha ha, the website is down. If you call us, we will only refer you to the website and refuse to answer your questions (true story). 
And again, could someone PLEASE explain to me why you can't wash your hands or wash your teeth with the water but you can bathe, shower, and clean with it? Seriously? SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!



That concludes today's rant. Thank you very much for reading. If you need me, I'll be trying to talk my husband into a hotel or into sleeping at the Y. They still do that, right?!?!
