In the thread Interesting Lights , Ryan_J had asked a question about lights a contractor wished to use.

make sure the contractor does not rip these off before you see them

This could be a whole thread topic itself!

So, here's the thread. (This is not meant to give anybody ideas, though!)

It's a shame how some folks will try to sneak things by.

I saw two guys stop in a contractor's van by the corner yesterday. They started to unload about 15 bags of garbage plus some pieces of wood and metal. (It was garbage collection day.)

A couple of people came over to ask what they were doing. They said they had to change a flat. Apparently, by some miracle, the flat fixed itself 'cause they re-loaded their garbage and pulled away in somewhat of a hurry [Linked Image]

My neighbor would have been fined if that stuff sat their and the garbage collection didn't take it. (No construction debris is permitted at the curb around here...)

I guess that GC doesn't want to pay for a dumpster.
