This has got to be good. What did they do?
Nothing big, just a general slowness and a lack of staff vs what was promised. I was told that Mon-Fri would be a minimum of 3 people working 8-9 hours a day, with no days missed and 1-2 people on Sat. Total time was estimated at 3.5 weeks assuming nothing went way wrong.
I am only speaking of the tile and framing guys as this is the biggest(slowest) part of the job and I need it done and out of the way so the cabinet maker, granite guys and hardwood guys could come in next.
So the first week went OK but then the owner of the company told me he was getting married the next Tuesday and then would be on his Honeymoon for 10 days after that.
My first thought was "what an idiot, why would you get married"...
Then I was like cool, who is in charge? He pointed at the white kid which is the one I trusted the most but he was a white kid so even though he could do the work, he was slow.
The next day the white kid shows up and it turns out all the other guys had quit. He worked as hard as he could but wasn't gaining much ground. This went on for 4 days and then I called the Honeymooner and kind of went crazy but still way under control.
Today no less than 10 people showed up at 7:30 am and started knocking out everything. More was done today that in the past 2.5 weeks. It wasn't sloppy fast work either, it was pros who were good at what they do and just efficient.
Late in the afternoon the Cabinet and granite guys came in and knocked out their part and the plumber came in at 7 pm and did his thing. The plumper was a total creeper who acted like he was mad that he had to be there and he hated me. When Carolyn would walk in he would change his voice and demeanor and totally flirt with her, I thought... "what an idiot..."
