Some of those, you know you don’t want and get them anyway because of pressure elsewhere.


fricking hate pools and there is no cargo space in a convertible.

I got broken on the last one after trying to go from the airport to the hotel in a rental one. There was NOT room for two adults, two teens, and luggage for all.

I’m currently trying to convince my SO not to pay to have one put in our back yard.


SO? Our yard? If she ain’t your wife and it ain’t her yard, no convincing necessary. TELL this brawd how it’s gonna be.


If you’re a cuck living in her house and it’s her yard, well, sorry you’re a bitch and have to go along with whatever she says.

Not saying the work isn't crappy.

I'm no pool expert, but it seems like sand WOULD be the material of choice to backfill with. It compacts well and doesn't expand/sweel.

In the video, it stated that the french drains do not function while showing a pool skimmer. Those two things are not the same.

It’s a shame the media won’t go after politicians the same way they go after a pool contractor


Unless that person goes against the chosen narrative.

Interesting to know if the shitty contractor saved even $2,000 doing it the way he did it. For an extra $2K he probably could have had a satisfied customer and a few referrals. Now look at this mess.

Some contractors are just not very bright.

Was the company you worked for owned by the Hughes family?
