Whitehall




I remember one time, must have been 1994, I was angry because my Mitsubishi television had stopped working. I told a coworker that the batteries in the remote control had last longer than the television, which I had bought in 1990. I brought the television into the UFP office in Charlotte North Carolina where we worked at while we had that maintenance contract with First Union. Zimmerman, my coworker, surprised me by telling me that he had heard another owner of that same model of television had the problem and the solution was simply to replace a fuse. I took off the chassis of the television, found the fuse, replaced it, and that fixed the problem. I still had that television in 2005, until I became homeless.
