re: Would you report house workers getting into a fight before leaving?

If I hired painters and they didn't get into a fight, I would assume they suck at painting.

youre paying them to paint, not be friends. As long as the work looks good, they not stealing or breaking anything, just let them be.

Had an exterior paint job yesterday and as the guys were leaving, two of them got into a scuffle in my driveway. Lasted about three seconds before the third guy ran up and broke them up. They left right after. My wife was mortified and said we need to report them to the contractor. I thought the paint job looked great and what’s a bit of a brouhaha after painting in miserable summer heat?

id let the business owner know. Just in the manner you posted here

I had two drivers get in a fight outside our shop one day. Was witnessed by a couple folks, one reported it to me a couple weeks later. I let both of them go, you can’t be that unstable.

Being brutally honest, your wife isn't a man. She wouldn't understand that these types of things happen from time to time. ESPECIALLY outside in the summer heat, all it would take is one wrong word and I'm sure I'd be ready to swing on someone. That doesn't mean we can't enjoy a beer together when we cool down. Calling the contractor over something so miniscule could cause problems for them that your wife has never even thought about, because she's a woman and doesn't have to. Just let it be. If the contractor calls you and asks if you noticed or saw anything, sure, tell him everything, but there's less than a 1% chance of that happening.

To who?

Karen needs to mind her damn business.

If you call to report them make sure you ask to speak to a manager.

Let it go. No reporting.
