The next thing you say to that man ought to start with *My lawyer said*




And end with, *And if you have anything further to say to me, you can say it through my lawyer at (Phone number)*.

When I had my roof done...

We called a contractor that had done a couple roofs locally - that's how we got his number. Those people were happy with his work.


He came to the house with a tape measure and note pad.

He took measurements and gave us a rough estimate and said he'd call back with an exact total.

He did. We accepted. When he came back, he had a detailed list of exactly what every penny was for, evey thing he was going to do, and an estimate of how long the job would take - you can't count on the weather holding up for roofing.

He included a full yard clean up.

We had to sign, he had to sign we both got copies of that and a warantee.

It was as professional a transaction as ever I've had.

They came, they did a great job. They should all be like that.

But I have had people I've had to threaten off my property. Had to sic my dog on a cable guy.

*That chow like people?*

*Sure. He thinks they taste like chicken!*



Buh bye!
