The Dreaded 5am phone call ....

[Venom Stinger]

i woke this morning to my phone ringing.....at 5am..never good.
i missed the call because i was half asleep and moving slow..i picked up my phone..and its the guy that has ahis bedroom under my fish tank....his name is rick.
so i run into my living room.....ugh.

i have a puddle of water behind my wet/dry...
i wipe it up fast and i start to go down stairs to see the damage and i am met half way by Rick....i dont think i could have said sorry enough...
so i take him up stairs and show him the water..he said he could hear the water dripping from my floor to his ceiling.
i ask him how much is soaked...he said nothing was soaked or wet! Thank God!

i am thinking my roommates dog pushed over the return hoses a little bit causing the leak down the side of my wet dry...

i am telling you..i almost had a heart attack......worst feeling ever....
i honestly thought i soaked this guy while he slept.....and that i would be getting a nice letter from my landlord telling me to get out.

I gotta say I expected a blow out or similar when I first started reading. Could have been much much worse. Sounds like the neighbor was fairly cool with the situation.

Oh man.....near disaster! So have you clamped your return hoses to the sump yet?! I think that's a valid and vivid nightmare for all of those that have a large volume of water on a main or upper floor!
