i'm stressed, say something funny..16 day countdown and so much to do...ack...i think i nearly had a panic attack today after one of the people that was coming into the house to do construction said "oh, i didn't know you said it was ok to start on the job"...i've been waiting 2 weeks for him to start...and in the event anyone things i *may* not have given him enough info
1.) after he gave me the price, i said "ok, let's do it"
2.) i sent a follow up email to confirm the start date, which he said there was some confusion on, and *he* pushed it to today
3.) i called their office and left the location of the check as well as the code to my garage to get in
...so, that begs the question...do you want someone who can't deduce that they've been hired (particularly from the first point, much less the others), doing construction in your house?!
