Part Two- Gold's Gym Help Hotline

I start the day off by wasting a good 45 minutes, explaining to the kind lady, on the other end of the phone "hot-line", about my predicament..
(pulley cable # 3 too short)
I went over with her, in painful detail about how I had erected each and every component, piece by piece, only to come to the same God damned conclusion...I had indeed, assembled it correctly. Duh!
Next she asks me to remove all THREE pulley cable systems, and measure them, as my box, may have indeed contained an incorrect length pulley cable. We have had this happen before she says....... WHAT???
Are you kidding me? Do you have ANY idea how much work that involves????

Look Bitch, I say completely losing my cool....waving my half-dead, stump of a finger, into her imaginary face. "I've already assembled and re-assembled the entire fucking thing, three times already!! "

Now I do realize, I have a tendency to offend the people that are in a position to help me, but it's no use..I've had it... You know what...?
I'll just pack this 300 lb. piece of shit up and take it back, I scream!!! Click.....she hangs up on me.
That's Right!!!! I say triumphantly, Take That!!!

Then it slowly sinks in.. and I realize what "taking it back" entails......I start to cry...
Enormous drops pour down my red-hot cheeks and begin pooling at my feet. I wail like a wounded dog for the better part of an hour.
Then being completely exhausted and utterly spent, I collapse into a pathetic heap and fall asleep.

End Result.: It took me 18 hours to assemble it and a mere 45 minutes to break it down.
Moral of the story: Never, Ever buy an un-assembled anything!
