SERVICE TYPE: Appliance Delivery & Install / Unexpected Moisture Management
TASKS PERFORMED:
☑ Delivered new refrigerator unit (model: Jotnar 4200)

☑ Installed new fridge, leveled legs (rear right needed stacking shims — used three)

☑ Tested cooling cycle – successful (note: coils hum louder than normal when ambient temp exceeds 95°F or when Lamia curls around unit)
NOTES / ISSUES:
Original client (Lamia) answered door wearing nothing but a crop top and optimism. Said she “liked the look of the horns” and asked if I “did custom fittings.”
Physical exertion involved:
47 minutes of aggressive tailplay
3 failed attempts to leave, blocked by strategically-positioned snake coils
One instance of airborne reverse-cowgirl (unsanctioned, but impressive form)
Carpet saturated (not water-related)
Lamia can apparently unhinge jaw.
Multiple attempts to resume work were interrupted by enthusiastic requests for “one more test cycle.”
Drank 3 full bottles of water, still dehydrated.
FOLLOW-UP NEEDED:
☐ None
☑ Strong recommendation: no solo appliance installs in college housing going forward

Now that the stories from the fertility clinic have concluded, an older minotaur steps to the front of the room to share his story. This dad-bod brute was called to install a refrigerator in the apartment of a young lamia and ended up laying some pipe while he was there.
