Rude hateful secretary just hung up on me at the circuit office because I'm trying to get an answer over a fire extinguisher ticket! Absolutely unprofessional and unhinged lady. Completely refused to answer a simple question!

I drove out there to check out the architecture. Found some old cars across the street. Sat at a picnic table in the shade and had lunch.
