Thank you Ausador for the story. Your communication skills had my heart beating in anger over your well told story. Thanks for the ending comnments on tipping. That part made me feel good inside for in finishing my basement I tipped the sheet rockers $50 a piece, and when I caught the plumber on the phone complaining to his supplier that he was not getting paid what he thought he should because there was no mark up for him on the shower, though I had already paid him in full our agreed upon price, I pulled out my checkbook right then and asked how much more he needed, and paid what he asked.

My Brother-In-Law who does not believe in drinking alcohol told me afterwards, "if you want a good job buy the crew a case of beer" (he had done the same on his house addition).
