Stop in for a cup of coffee

Sigh what a day from hell.

Went to my physical therapy for my shoulder surgery at 0800, whoops, apparently that was supposed to be 0730… and the day went south from there

Cop pulled me over for a burned out taillight, must have burned out after I left cause cameras showed both working. And in the middle of that , we learned that the BMV bungled the plate transfer when I bought the truck, which confused the hell out of the cop because the registration has my information on it as it should, but the ex-owners information pulls up in the system… which the plates expire at the end of June anyway and I was going to the BMV today to renew them but that turned into a 2.5 hour debacle. Got it fixed

Then I had to replace the front brake caliper that I just replaced last month, Napa wouldn’t honor their warranty, claimed it was a close out sale . so had to buy a new one, which took 3 different parts stores to find one. But hey, it’s back together

Then we found the storage unit where we’d rented to store stuff for the house has water leaks and had to move from one unit to another. Luckily no damage to our stuff. That was a time killer.

Then the new siding guy basically didn’t finish this week, wants an additional 6k ontop of the original contracted amount to finish. Citing “poor workmanship by previous contractor requiring re-work and extra costs”.

Anyone else feel the need to just pack up, leave and say f$$k it, I’m gonna go live in a van by the river?!?
yup, nothing works anymore, nothing, at least dealing with "public things"
with the professionalism of the last siding guy, or lack there of, consider this guy may be on the up & up.
get him to show you why the 6K, you may have a lagit claim on the previous contractor

if the previous siding guy scam'd you on the right way to do it, and this guy wants it right,
you found an honest siding guy, maybe for life

better to find out now than 5-10 years later and water damage

God works in interesting ways. Good Luck!
