Re: How Much Money Do You Make Off Other Contractor Screwups?

Got an appointment today with another hit and run victim. HO paid the guy in full upfront. Sounds like he set new cabs and disappeared.

Best part is the client is a commercial contractor that says he knows better, just had a lapse in judgment.

Good Luck
Dave

OK folks, just a reminder, politics and religion have a home of their own and are not allowed in the regular forums. Rules is rules. Thanks in advance.
