No no no. That was WAY too precise to fall under the heading of hissy fit. The hole she carved is perfectly square! Pounding hte door in would have been a hissy fit.

HA HA - I had a young, non-english speaking neighboor in Seattle who locked herself out of her apartment. Instead of dealing with it rationally, she started pounding on the door, drummer style (think the drum solo from the classic song "wipeout.") I woke up, staggered out of bed and when I saw what was going on, I asked her if she needed some help. She looked really freaked out when I picked the door open, but the building super was a friend of mine and had already designated me the unofficial building locksmith. When she tattled on me, I got 20$ knocked off my rent for the month.

good work!

I did a lockout for my sister's work - her boss didn't have keys for his office (dunno why. didn't ask). I was expecting a bit of money but got AUD $75! I told her it was my work's standard lockout price, so she gave it to me. Petrol for the next week-and-a-half was paid in full, which is good, considering i didn't have to pawn my left leg for a full tank.

Serious question - was she a crackhead or amped up on meth? That door is amazing, maybe she should have called the lockie prior to pulling the Nicholson on the door.
