Would you walk in an office setting and get the info of a secretary because you're looking for a secretary at your job?

I'm not saying the subs wouldn't be interested, but you're openly trying to take away subs from a contractor on said contractors job. And if you wanted to be technical, you technically wouldn't be authorized to be on the job site.

This is coming from a GC. I'm not even in this thread telling the homeowner not do contract his home out himself, but just coming from a contractors perspective, this would make me mad. If a homeowner came up to me on a job I would 100% be cool talking with them and even give them the names of numerous subs that I have available that I'm not currently using on jobs. But if I or one of my project managers came up to a random homeowner on my job trying to poach workers, then yea, I would kindly ask them to leave.
