    A firm believer in “ Do what you do best, hire the rest”

    That said, what is it with businesses that don’t seem to want any work?
    Had a few projects at the house. Call a few local businesses, if they did bother to call back, they seem to not show up to give estimates, or they get that far, then don’t show up to do the work.

    And that’s the problem. Everyone wants the easy money. My neighbors just went through the same thing. The one Guy who showed up, got the Job. The other 2 never showed up for estimates. I have no problem paying people what they’re worth. Often giving Mechanics a tip, because they did a good job, and saved me money. But when I’m overcharged for crappy work, it drives me nuts. No respect for anyone who doesn’t take pride in their work. Do your 8 and Skate, seems to be the norm. No Ambition, I don’t get it.

    Oh that was a bargain. He did a good job too. Not perfect like you'd do yourself, but that was probably $4K or $5K worth of work.

    My favorite are the dealers. $300 to walk in the door. Sometimes more.

    When I had the radiator core replaced. There was a $80 computer connection fee.

    Didn't realize the radiator core was computerized.

    Special place in hell for those people someday I hope.

    This Starbucks in the communist state is using old school incandescent lighting for ambience.

    Isn't this a GIANT waste of energy??? Why are they not using LED's????

    What about the carbon footprint????

    WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN??????

    This is the wrong thread for that. They were peeing on themselves for far less on the millionaire esteemed members thread.

    You should post it there.

    This is the road savage thread.

    No one really talks money, except 1 or 2 people.
