I think I got Honest Ed's hydro bill by mistake
My hydro bill is $1,500.00. Whoah.
$1,000 of that is for just December and January. Advanced mathematics reveal that this breaks down to $500.00 per month.
Now, I know my parents like to crank up the baseboard heat. It's not tropical in there, but comfortable. But it's on 24/7. And yes, the dishwasher is used twice a day. And yes, my Dad has his Nasa Computer Command Centre in the basement.
So, yah, I guess there's room for conservation. But $500 per month? Does this not seem a little, what's the word I'm looking for....Obscene? I mean, it's not like you can check up on them, is it? If they say "YOU OWE US $1500"..how you know they're not screwing with you? Sure, you've got a meter reading, big deal. At least with Bell you get an itemized phone call list. Can you look at the hydro bill and tell them "I did NOT use that light for three hours on the 15th!"
And if that's not bad enough, I can't wait until the RCMP comes busting in on my parents looking for a grow op.
