Many days ago we said, "tomorrow... we have a date", oh what such sad, sad, sacks we are.
in order:
1) Michael .S the project manager came by to take a quick look friday was a week ago.
2) he said he wished all of his clients were as organized as us
3) said it looked like quick work
4) they were to start this past tuesday
5) as he was leaving Michael showed him the stud situation we have on the second floor
6) "I have seen houses collapse" (memo to contractor: don't use the word collapse before calling in the engineers)
7) back to the drawing board
8) engineer -> contractor -> engineer, rinse and repeat
9) "oh, it's all definitely doable we just need to make sure we're careful replacing the header beam"
10) a day passes
11) "we'll deliver materials tomorrow and we'll start the next day"
12) a day passes
13)"we'll deliver materials tomorrow and we'll start the next day"
14) granted they are figuring out how to replace a beam
15) friday comes
16) "if it's only going to be one more day for the engineers why don't you begin the demolision now?"
17) "Wayne, if Michael S. asked you to come out and take a look at the job is it because he's looking for advice on what to do or are you just coming to issues a change order?"
18) tomorrow
19) no, sorry, tomorrow
The up side:
1) we got the windows
2) we saw the new door, it'll be ready friday
maybe this is our lucky week
