treeskinThe stairs are fixed for now, Contractor has left, and was ...humbled...when he left. He still insists that he didn't know anything about the break or how it happened until I called him last night, which I don't believe at all. He's blaming it on the one person on his crew who hadn't answered their phone when he called around asking about it this morning. Whatever.
He said that he's pleased with the way the siding turned out on the south side, enough that he's thinking about tearing off and re-doing what his "siding specialist" did on the east side. I'm not going to hold my breath on that one, even though he is right.
He also let slip that his "siding specialist", who is a nephew, has been talking to most of Salvage Guy's regular help about us, and has convinced most of them that he was in the right over that crap, and we're impossible to work for. Because most of SG's regular help aren't any brighter than his siding specialist, and are easily swayed by bombastic repetition.
But that does mean that he's having trouble getting a crew for our project, because we have standards and hold them accountable.
