Would you be confused? Would you be mad? Would you even care?

LOL, I'd never do this, but it seems harmless silly enough...

Assuming they did it properly and the seal is still good. It may also void a warranty.

If a fridge is capable of changing what side it opens on, changing it won't void the warranty.

A lot of fridges are made to go both ways. You have to attach the handle and the hinge when you get it. A lot of fridges will have two plugs on the other side to cover the unused bolt holes
