Ever Deal With The "lonely Wife"on A Job?
I am. She's hot and married. I am married too. Home all day. I never thought I would say it , but it actually really sucks and it is getting difficult to work!

You and work and get paid, or you can get laid and pay. Take your pick.

Re: Ever Deal With The "lonely Wife"on A Job?
Hang in there bro. Stay focused and be a machine about work. If she starts flirting...look her right in the eye and tell her you're a pro about your work and this flirty stuff is not how you do things. Honesty always works out best. (Get paid up to date first)
Keep it all business....you will be happy you did 6 months from now. And she will realize that you are a pro and that's always a good thing. Mike |

Well, if not... maybe you shouldn't.

Re: Ever Deal With The "lonely Wife"on A Job?Quote:
I have got to agree with Mike. I had to deal with working with a hot construction chic every day. I know, they are far and few between but she was HOT!. Near the end of the day her tool belt would weight her shorts down and her thong would start to show. That was very distracting. Add in the sun glaring off her sweaty body and it was even tougher. On another note, keeping it professional....she knew alot about carpentry and I learned alot from her. Bottom line, she had to know that she was a distraction, no question about it. |

Take all that energy home to your wife...
(sorry guys, got to represent the women in your lives.) I love it when my hubby comes home all hot and bothered. Don't care who he's fantisizing about as long as I'm getting the goods. |

Re: Ever Deal With The "lonely Wife"on A Job?
its tough i know. however,how would you feel if you were at work while your wife and some contractor were flirting with each other? sometimes we are tested in life and its up to us to do the right thing. SHE's married.

Re: Ever Deal With The "lonely Wife"on A Job?
There is no way I would ever do anything, I just wanted to see if it happens a lot.
Anyways, off to work.. |

Re: Ever Deal With The "lonely Wife"on A Job?
I did a flooring job once for the lonely EX-wife. She loved to walk around in a bikini. It was summer after all. Not a bad body but her Daughter was incredible. Now there was a dilemma, i was single at the time but what a scenario. Long story short, I kept it professional, got paid, got out.
i try to keep Drama off my jobs.

I had a Service Tech tell me stories of women coming on to him while on the job. Watch out, you may have to pay to play !
