Oh, yes. Nobody will take Detroit, so she finally has to sign trade agreements with the Dominican Republic. 

But they won't allow anyone from Detroit to actually immigrant to the Dominican Republic. They just agree to have trading. Except poor Detroit no longer manufactures anything to trade.

So you fly planes?

Yes that is technically my full time job. Working only 7 days this month though. The rental business feels more full time.

Congratulations.  I finally found sombody on here with a more fun job than mine.  I spend a lot of my time right behind you.

I think those whirlpoos are junk

They are junk and Whirlpool actually knows it.  There is actually a part that Whirlpool sends to Lowes that they keep in the back and give out for free.  It is a replacement burner assembly.  It has no SKU number it is not inventoried or anything.  Listen to what that means.  The main part of a water heater is the burner assembly.  That is what makes a water tank into a water heater.  THEY GIVE THEM OUT FREE BY THE GROSS BECAUSE THEY BREAK SO OFTEN.

Well I tried to put the GE one in today. It was JUNK too!! The pressure relief valve is on top. I had to turn it the right way to plumb it through the hole in the floor. Nothing in the instructions on how to turn it. So I got my big pipe wrench out and it did turn, with a TON of force. Which caused me to smash the housing the threads are in. Why did they put the pressure relief on top instead of the side? So took it back and put in another whirlpoo junkered that will maybe last 6 or 7 years.

My plumber only installs Rheemglass Fury water heaters for us.  He won't get any from Lowe's.  We had problems with a Craftmaster brand water heater about a month ago.  After he made about 4 or 5 trips to the house and put on multiple parts on the Craftmaster, he finally go the store to warranty it out and get us a new one.  The "old" one was a 2007 model.  Lowe's (and other places like that) try to give you a piece at a time to fix the old units.  With the Rheem brand units (from a plumbing supply business here), he can just take the whole unit in there and get a new one if there's a problem.  The Rheems are a little more expensive (maybe $100-130 more), but it's good to know we can get them swapped out if necessary.
