Purchasers will be able to carry it in their handbag & whip it out at the very first whiff of a porky pie. I'm qualified to do this 'cos I live with one. He doesn't tell fibs, although sometimes doesn't 'communicate' with his clients as he should. There are some good stories though - a friend has just finished a big build & had the best experience with an honest & very fastidious GC. She wanted to give him her second born son in appreciation. He graciously declined.<br />Millie xMilliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15408461724832141163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-51868365759199005372011-01-28T15:54:58.745-05:002011-01-28T15:54:58.745-05:00Sock it to 'em, Renée!Sock it to 'em, Renée!gésbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18094108253356167918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-91974249349065794982011-01-28T15:54:58.149-05:002011-01-28T15:54:58.149-05:00Sock it to 'em, Renée!Sock it to 'em, Renée!gésbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18094108253356167918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-19492729312707997912011-01-28T00:55:44.143-05:002011-01-28T00:55:44.143-05:00i love your stories... and it took almost 13 month...i love your stories... and it took almost 13 months to do a remodel i have been working on...hhmmmm... <br />dont know if it was the cabinet maker or... indecisions on another side???? hmmmmmred tickinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09400289072356876224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-53559926942947000042011-01-27T22:29:10.027-05:002011-01-27T22:29:10.027-05:00love it! what a way to put someone in their place ...love it! what a way to put someone in their place than with intelligence..<br />maureenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-38695461306771882822011-01-27T13:44:18.856-05:002011-01-27T13:44:18.856-05:00I didn't know that about the Empire State .......I didn't know that about the Empire State ....seems incredible to think of that in these days of excuses and delays.

Great bit of history fact.
If more women ...Renee,<br /><br />Great bit of history fact.<br /><br />If more women were builders, owned construction companies, trained artisans, owned workrooms, and stopped suppressing their power.<br /><br />Projects would be on time, on budget and sealed with a kiss. Not to mention fresh flowers, coffee and pastries during final installation and walk throughs. But we all know that our downfall would be the cat fights. <br /><br />BetteAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11115674582600945465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-67728401947660660362011-01-26T21:58:38.143-05:002011-01-26T21:58:38.143-05:00Meant to mention that we went to the top of the Em...Meant to mention that we went to the top of the Empire in November 09 and they wanted us to take off our coats (security thing). I refused, as I only had a sleeveless cami on underneath.

Those were the days of true craftsman and skilled workers & people took pride in their work, no matter what it was. Whether it was the butcher, the bager at the grocers, or the milk man. Guys like that are riding on the family coat tails and arrogant sons of guns. <br />Renee, that was the remark of a lifetime. No wonder your one of my female idols. Damn your good!<br /><br />xo xoDumbwit Tellherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18148671166061931241noreply@blogger.com
