There may be some way of doing it (HTML, maybe?) in the comments box but it's not just a button, as it is in the Post function. I don't know if that helps or not! I wish there was an easy way to do emojis in the comments. But then I'd be sprinkling them everywhere, I suppose :) :P :D jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-82661176362485872712018-10-18T23:04:24.641-03:002018-10-18T23:04:24.641-03:00I like your poem - made me smile, as usual.

Let's see... I have a little Craftsman ... Doors? Let's see... I have a little Craftsman tape measure in my sling bag that I used to carry in my pocket when I did home delivery of furniture and appliances.<br /> I used it to measure doors, mostly, or the width they open to more specifically. <br /> That's how I could tell how I needed to go about getting the item in the truck into whichever room in the customer's house they wanted it to be in.<br /> Sometimes the item wouldn't fit through the open door, and sometimes that called for a "door removal", which is just what it sounds like.<br /> Sometimes the item was a refrigerator, and wouldn't fit through the doorway even with the door removed, and that called for a double door removal, in which the doors were taken off of the refrigerator also, in order to make it fit through the narrow part of the doorway.<br /> Sometimes there was an old refrigerator that we had to haul away, and, you guessed it, had to have its doors removed to fit through the narrow part of the doorway also. <br /> At that point there would be doors and hardware all over the place,and the customer would be looking at us like "I hope you boys know what you're doing" and we would have to put everything back together and make sure it worked correctly and to their satisfaction before we could go on to the next delivery.<br /> Got some loyal customers that way, they always seemed more happy when we competently jumped through a few hoops to get them what they needed, and after a while, we got so we almost never screwed anything up in the process.<br /> And we usually decided whether to put the doors back on the old refrigerator by assessing whether the used appliance dealer would buy it from us or not.<br /><br /> Doors.<br /><br /> -Doug in Oaklanddinthebeasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941071534250216503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-27589874420201508732018-10-16T17:19:19.705-03:002018-10-16T17:19:19.705-03:00No problem Jenny.
