I would have told them to leave as they arrived because they did not call. :(Far Side of Fiftyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995757632158408442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-53100998712756886712016-04-30T22:41:55.342-04:002016-04-30T22:41:55.342-04:00Thanks, Readers, and I will continue with the rest...Thanks, Readers, and I will continue with the rest of the story. When he came by to pick up my check, he did not call first. He just showed up at my door. I wrote his check but deducted $60 and I told him why. I did not have a problem with his work, I said, but he showed no consideration for me and caused me serious problems. I suggested he not only think of what was convenient for him, but to think about his customer and what was convenient for her. He grumbled, but I think he knew I was in the right, and others have told me he overcharged me for the job. <br />Live and learn. I'll know better next time. Thanks for reading and for giving me your thoughts.Glenda Beallhttp://www.glendacouncilbell.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-83431163896169556752016-04-28T15:52:44.551-04:002016-04-28T15:52:44.551-04:00I was hyperventilating as you were looking for Lex...I was hyperventilating as you were looking for Lexie. That is a HORRIBLE feeling, losing a dog and wondering if he or she will be alright. Thank goodness Lexie made it through.<br />I think that if the people have not called and confirmed that they are going to do the job you asked about, you have a right to not agree with the amount they have charged you. Sounds to me like the workers for this company are rude and disrespectful. www.roughwighting.nethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12134440016559973608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-47959961629755692372016-04-28T14:50:35.321-04:002016-04-28T14:50:35.321-04:00I believe trying to get a discount would be like t...I believe trying to get a discount would be like trying to pull one of the guys teeth. Impossible. I try to stay prepared for whatever comes along. I don't apologize if I'm in my pajamas and someone knocks on my door. Some days I stay in them. I'm retired and work at writing as well. If it's someone I want to see, I open the door. If not, I don't. I don't have a beloved puppy but I'd be upset to have him run away. The responsibility is on us, however, making sure they are safe before we ever open the door. Good luck in handling this issue. Hugs to the puppy. Glad he's safe.<br />B.

You should have had it it writing, then you could take him to court. I'm glad little Lexie is all right. That's the important thing. :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.com
