On Super Bowl Sunday a friend came home to find his home had been ransacked, many things were stolen.
He called and asked if I maybe able to help in getting his desk back in shape after they (the “Idiots” that ripped him off) took a pik axe to the desk to remove a small safe.
He thought the desk was a complete loss, I informed him it was a do able repair.
He had paid around $4000 for the desk and loved it. Besides the fact you feel like you have totally violated, the aftermath needs to be dealt with.
So now he has a nice new security system and a repaired desk top to boot….he has not seen the desk yet so I think he will be pleased when he gets back from out of town.
Thanks for taking a peek.
