Rubble Foundation Mortar

[Jerry Simon]

How do you report a 100 year old rubble/stone foundation where the mortar has turned to sand?

[Bill Kibbel]

It was originally not much more than sand.

To piss you off.

Thanks for the info.

That's my job. Don't be sticking your toe in my door. [:-dev3]

I report it largely as the links describe, and tell folks to "fix it". The description of fixes takes a long time, as I have to work through all the things they're going to hear from the various masonry companies.

What the hell?!!!

I thought it was my job assignment to piss Bill off.

Who the hell is in charge of assigning all of the work around here? Man o man.

Well, since Kurt is a lot taller than I am, I guess I'd better back off or I'm gonna end up with a bloody nose. OK, so I'll go find someone else to piss off.

Danged bureaucracy; always confusing things.

OT - OF!!!

I'm just glad we have an assigned pisser offer! [:-bouncy]

I'm not sure it's an "assigned" job. Sometimes I think it's earned on merit, if only on a temporary basis. []

Lately, it seems that everyone thinks it's their job to piss me off. [!]
