If he had bees in the ductwork, the entire building would have bees in the ductwork
Being the superintendent of a big house building, Kennedy gets a lot of strange service calls. Last week, some of the apartment dwellers called and told him they heard bees in their ductwork. Kennedy had never heard of such a thing, so instead of telling them they were nuts, he went up to their apartment. He could hear some humming coming from the ductwork, but he could not hear bees. They told him to get closer to the air vent, and Kennedy would hear what he was talking about. He put his ear to the air vent and he listened closely. There was a hum and he could faintly hear a noise that could be a buzz. The longer he listened, the more he heard the noise he was hearing. Kennedy started knocking on the walls, but that made no difference in the sound. He thought that if bees could have gotten into the ductwork, knocking would make the noise louder, or send a stray bee out of the air vent. He called the Heating, Ventilation and A/C corporation, and they said they would come over the next morning. In the meantime, Kennedy was going to cover the air vents. If he had bees in the ductwork, the entire building would have bees in the ductwork. He told the occupants the Heating, Ventilation and A/C tech would be there in the morning, and everything would be taken care of then. On his way out of their apartment, Kennedy heard some strange noises coming from the house next door. The owners had a toy for the dog that was a buzzing and jumping ball, and it was vibrating through the air vents.
