The morning from hell, Ive been working on a project since last October, and this morning the architect informed me that I was the weak link! as I couldnt give him what he wanted (story of my life!).
This is a grown man who wanted a black bathroom, who has been given samples of Basalt, Slate, Pietra Serena, nero assoluto, in fact every flipping black material that I know of, at the last count he's had 19 samples for this one room and doesnt like none of it! This is a man who thought for another room he would use Thassos marble and wanted it supplied and fixed for around £120.00m2..Give me a break. This is a man who has had 15 samples of cream limestone and still hasnt decided what he wants, and now the client has gone nuts, because surprise there is not one piece of stone or marble on site. And its all my fault because I am the weak link.
Yet again, I am to blame because it is 'me' who is holding the job up, it is me who changes her mind every 5 minutes about substrate preparation, it does not matter it is me that works till 10pm on doing their budgets and specifications and I am the weak link, and I should be thankful for all the work that I get from them, because there are other stone companies.
If it were better times, I would tell them to stick the contract where the sun doesn't shine, but I have to take it on the chin. I never knew i had so much patience in me, I wanted to wrap my fingers round his scrawny neck and bury him in slc, but I was a good girly......(boring).
Here ends this rant....Have a good weekend lads and lasses..because it all kicks of again on Monday morning.
