sorry is as sorry does

One of the most slipshod, arrogant, and dishonest homebuilders I have met has been written up in the neighboring county for eight counts of "theft by deception".

I would reply that such description is his standard modus. The counts are said to relate to a musical performance event with which he was connected. Seems the ticket money went missing when the show was over.

I met him five years ago inspecting a new home he was almost finished with and was selling to a newly widowed lady.

The realtor sat with her at the new diggs holding her hand, while I tallied a long list of serious problems. When the inspection report was issued all three of them ganged up on me, not a single correction was performed, and I found out later that he sold an identical house down the street to a big-busted single gal for 40K less than he charged the widow.

Sounds like a quality fellow. [:-dev3]

Not all remuneration is in the form of money!

OK, next question.

While the OP may show a touch of bitterness, I try to subscribe to the idea that everyone you meet has something to teach you, and vice versa.

I wonder what I'm supposed to learn from this guy.

Yes, every person has something to teach you.....well....most of them anyway.

He can teach you what not to do
