I got a bag o' rocks for you and the Mrs and the Ducklings right behind ya SD...just make sure they do it right SD...AND DON'T GET PISSY...:) Remember...honey vs vinegar...works every time...:) especially with the guys laying the sod...

Sometimes, a guy just has to get pissy. Now, my next problem is getting the restoration company to come and replace my kitchen sink. Seems like when they were painting and doing the drywall, the painters and mudders decided that my kitchen sink was as good a place as any to clean their brushes and mudding tools. Well, it stained the bejeebers out of a sink that was 6 months old as well as clogging up the baskets with the mud. I'm not that concerned about the paint as far as the septic tank is concerned but the mud scares me a little. Anyways, the restoration guy knew about this 2 months ago. He stopped over a month ago to take a look at it and agreed it needed fixed. You think he's been back to fix it yet? Nope. So, I text messaged him today to let him know that I was still waiting for it to be done (it's the only thing left to do with the house) and he gets pissy with me saying that he'd get around to it when he got around to it because it was only a looks thing; not affecting the functionality of the sink. Well, that didn't set well with me and I KINDLY reminded him that this wouldn't be an issue at all if his workers hadn't used my kitchen sink as a paint and mud pail. I also reminded him that I hadn't as of yet filled out the customer satisfaction survey (with a return address label that is addressed to the owner) and I'd like to get it turned in as quickly as possible. Was that done nicely LQ?

NO SWATTING...you may want to call them again...geezzz...SD...you need a lot of work...

The guy putting in the sod is an employee of the recycling company....I sure as heckfire ain't gonna use them again. But, you're right. I wouldn't swat him anyways (he didn't do anything wrong; he's fixing someone elses mistake).

BUT, when do I get to SWAT someone or something???? ;D

In the words of Mr. Myagi in the Karate Kid: Not yet.

I bark.....you bite ;D

We're kinda like Forrest Gump and Jenny.....Peas and Carrots........ (only I really hope you don't get her sickness) ;D

Yeah me either Forrest...but...you have bigger crawfish to fry...listen...get me your agents number...if you have a problem with your septic tank down the road...you may be a giggling school girl today cause your lawn is "fixed" but the septic is a bigger problem...and hell a good cast iron sink is about $200 bucks...(over mounts are less...) BUT...that not being the point...

Let me give him one more try.......he's been pretty good to me so far. He may actually be on vacation right now. The insurance company has been the only one's that have been a pleasure to deal with. The rest of them should have to spend 2 years naked on the Bering Sea. That's be a Dangerous Catch. But, I will call you to get your take on what I should say to him.
