That is AWFUL.

Knowing nothing about your house or its age, is that freezer plugged into a ground fault protected circuit? While code requires all of them to be, any circuit that is ground-faulted and has either an outdoor outlet or a freezer/refrigerator plugged into it is going to trip all too frequently due to the moisture. When I bought my current house my freezer tripped the ground fault 3 times in a month, fortunately it's right in front of my car so I saw the light off and reset it.

I took the ground fault plug out of the circuit and replaced with a normal one.
