They aren't playing by the rules that legitimate contractors play by.
They are the yardstick used that legitimate contract...

No no no! That _attracts_ ghosts. You need an exorcist.
Your local HRCC can refer you to a reliable one.

nntp.post@gmail.com - Whirloop oven strange behavior of oven lights
- Hi all-
Got a strange one for you.
We moved into a 5 yr old house about 6 months ago. Have a Whirlpool
built in electric oven, model RBS305PDB8. Works quite well, still
looks to be in "as-new" condition.
Periodically, at random times, sometimes once a week, sometimes once a
month, sometimes multiple times a day, when the oven is not in use and
the door is closed, the 2 lig...

"Bob Pietrangelo" - Re: How much should I have paid for a new furnace/AC?
- Trader, you keep argueing your point. The majority of the jobs done like
this are performed like we said, basically stealing from their employer. I
am sorry you do not see it like this.
You are correct about the 1099, it is required for a business to an
individual, but not a homeowner to an individual.
I hope you can understand why us as owners do not like this. Employees

- Hello, I've not built one or used those companies but have some friends
who looked into this and are considering building this spring. My
caveat is that there's a lot of variability in price, and quality, and
that some of the companies that do work like this are very hard-sell.

have looked at Four Seasons as well as Betterliving Sunrooms. I was
wondering what people's experiences, good or bad, have been with these
2 companies. Thanks.

roger61611@yahoo.com - Re: Leather Conditioning
- A google yielded www.liquidleather.com - I have the same issue with a
couch I bought recently, which my cats have scratched up a bit. I'm
thinking of using shoe polish to hide the scratches and then a
conditioner of some sort.
You can wipe off with water but I would not do that on leather that was
dry or cracked, and I would dry it off.

You should have paid $4700 if you wanted a well known local company to
do it.
You could have paid less if y...

I don't use one myself, but they are common. Go down and see what is
in stock. Pretty fungible commodity, not like there will be a lot of

"Jabs" - Re: How much should I have paid for a new furnace/AC?
- Les,
If you weren't such a dumb-ass, you'd know that the price you paid for your
installation *was* a very good price. Only a thief could beat that price by
$1000. Too bad you're too fucking dumb to see that. Oh! I forgot.....that
why your dumb-ass came here..... to confirm that you're a dumb-ass. Well,
it has been confirmed.

Well if anyone had any doubts about what a complete moron you are, this
is the final proof. Anyone who has gone out for price quotes on any
kind of repair knows that it's not uncommon to see price variations
much larger than this. If that's the sign of a thief, then there are
sure a lot of them. Even retail prices for common...
