My dad had a friend who had a house in Maine. It was a summer home that they used in the summer and rented it out in the winter. One month they got an electric bill for $8,000 and they were very upset. They called the electric company to dispute it and after some going in circles, someone asked "Do you have a heated driveway?" The were sure they didn't yet sure enough, they finally discovered what the switch to nothing by the front door controls.
