That's nothing compared to some I know.

He lives in a 2 bedroom cement block house built in 1955. The electrical meter sits just outside of what used to be the back door to exit out of the house.

Sometime later someone decided to add an addition to the back side of the house. Then they split the whole addition in half and created a bed room on the one side of the house where the meter sits.

So now in order for the electric person to take the meter reading they have to go inside the back door, then take an immediate right into the bed room (it's actually being used as an airplane model room since this guy has no kids and works for ATA) and behind the door sits the emter....still in it's original spot.

The same guy's dad, in 1978 had their house destroyed by termites. So they built a brand new house next to it (from an existing garage) and then they moved out of the old termite house, yet they left the electrical service still connected to the house and just tapped off of it and ran a new wiring service to the new house.

It wasn't until 10 years ago when the son aquired the property after his dad went to a nursing home for a stroke and had the IRS threating to take his house, that his son got it all for $1, then he had the service moved to the new house so they could finally tear down the old house.
