This story was enjoyable to read. Highlights include
> Should we confront my FIL about his spending? (He has 13 TVs)
> >”If also if they don’t spend enough time with him or listen to his stories they are called “Muppets”. Staff and Stores with Muppets are then blacklisted for 2 months as punishment. He will then revisit these stores, down the track to retest them. He thinks by then that staff who failed his tests will be fired.
> >TV 13 the Ranger TV came about, not long after. He travelled out west and stayed in a 2-star motel for a night. In the room, he checked the TV and found it could not get all channels, also the picture quality was not up to his standard. He had a meltdown; it was so stressful that he did not sleep properly
> >He made the poor owner get a ladder out and took him up on the roof to give him a lesson in TV antennas. However, he was a bit concerned the owner did not get it. He left in a huff, telling the owner it was costing him a lot of business and he would never stay there again
> >Each time he buys a new TV, he makes many calls to his insurance company to tell them about the new TV. This is to boost his Content’s coverage. He also has someone on the line to listen to his stories about the other TVs he owns,
> > He is not planning to stop anytime soon, he is thinking about a new TV for Christmas, to watch the Boxing Day test. He also mentioned “Mate, there are now 8K TVs and I will need to replace all of these TVs over the next few years to stay up to date”
