No. It’s not reasonable at all. You should read the thread before blaming the homeowner.

Amen.

At some point the market will weed out GC's for rinky dink stuff like this.

It is so much cheaper to just sub stuff out yourself. Especially in an instance like this where there is no hard deadline.

I posted this before but in LC, for years, it's been all but impossible to get a legit GC out to do a small job like this

There have been so many other real opportunities without the risks of bullshite. It's just not worth the hassle for them

I read enough. You'd be on team window licker too.

How would it not be reasonable to wonder if a real estate agent homeowner would use her contacts to source a contractor?

It would not blow my mind to learn that this job was contracted on the cheap, with promises to dipshit trevor of future jobs from the real estate agents.

"Do my personal job cheap, and you can make it up on my clients later" happens all the time in the industry.

Regardless, I'm still team latin laborer in this scenario. And, after browsing the available information, 9:4802 et seq will possibly be the cerveza getting dagger for the hombres, bc I would be blown away if anybody in this scenario stopped licking windows long enough to handle their shite properly.

I'm calling my shot now...

Dipshit Trevor pays nobody; puppet people try to brush the hombre haters off; hombres handle their shite better than the window licking Mericans; a lien is filed; Hombres get paid for dragging concrete blocks around an area that could have been a patio; puppet people bitch and moan some more before hiring an attorney to send a mean letter to dipshit trevor, which is ignored; and none of the real estate agents think twice about the bullshite their past clients have had to endure from their recommendations of people exactly like Trevor.

I’m not on anyone’s team. You’ve created this conspiracy theory to absolve the Mexicans and blame realtors when no one but Trevor has tried to blame them.

You’re a shitty Mexican contractor, aren’t you?

Not sure how old it is but probably within the past 10 years or so.

It wasn't cheap, though. The paperwork was in one of the screenshots of the text. It was over $5K for that little pour. That was actually on the high end I would say for the way he was doing it. Now if he would have done it correctly (rip out old slab, properly grade etc) then yes it would have been a low price.

You are making a whole lot of idiotic assumptions all based on his wife being a Realtor.

You're definitely team window licker; you just might not be generalizing the team as much as I meant. Team window licker includes billions and billions of people.

Absolve the Mexicans? The laborers are likely the most innocent party in the story. What am I absolving them from?

I'm not choosing my team based on preference; I'm choosing it based on how I think the scenario will conclude.

Dipshit trevor is 100% the a-hole of the story. The puppet people will probably get fricked by their own incompetence and/or possible greed. The likely innocent laborers may get fricked too, but they might be able to unfrick themselves pretty easily.

However, I may have the most sympathy for team puppet people's real estate clients, bc I can only imagine how much incompetence has cost them over the years.

MY SYMPATHY SPECTRUM:

RE Clients/Day Laborers





Puppet Homeowners




















Dipshit Trevor

Your reading comprehension is about as bad as Trevor's grammar.

The reason his text are so bad is he's using the voice thing. I think.

Our baseball coach used to use it and it took 20 minutes to figure out what he was saying

What am I missing?

I'm thinking you cannot explain what caused you to reach that conclusion, but you probably know how dried mosquito guts taste.

After initially seeing this, I assumed that some Mexicans got stiffed with pay and purposely fricked up the job. Only way for it to turn out THAT shitty, right?

Amazing that someone screwed up that bad posing as a general contractor. Sorry to say, but the homeowner will eat all of that cost. That guy will have nothing to pay back.

I bet you cannot find one "idiotic" thing in my posts.

There are some reasonable assumptions though.

Assuming a re agent has connections to a contractor isn't idiotic.

Assuming dipshit trevor fricks over a sub isn't idiotic.

Assuming that puppet homeowner didn't follow the proper steps to protect themselves isn't idiotic.

So, where's this idiotic shite, stout?
