Is he being reasonable

[user123]

Deep breaths deep breaths deep breaths... you are better than that..

You know the management skills (and psi-kinetic energy) trick? You imagine yourself standing in fire, that is your power, that makes you untouchable and you can put white light around someone hostile in your mind too, you will find the conversation will go much better ... try it!

Thanks MG, I don't really believe in all the karma stuff, but i really will give it a try. I do know though, that if i was to lay my hands on him, it would be me that ends up in trouble, so i wouldn't do that.

Nothing to do with Karma... just a way of controlling yourself, the situation and the outcome... people do pick up on energies we all give out and receive, think of the impressions you get of people when you first enter a pub... or any situation for that matter.... I am quite nervous when I first enter rooms full of people, but before I go in I use tricks like this so that no-one would ever know... the fire thing really makes you appear very strong, the kind of strength bullies (basically that's what people like that are) pick up on... trust me :smilewinkgrin:

Phil,
The advice Mike gave you was spot on, you stick to your guns mate. Sounds like the neighbour is playing you. Let him rant all he wants dont you be bullied.

Hi rob not really got him sorted yet, i was there on friday washing walls in prep for painting, also took loads of pics while he wasn't around so i'v got proof of everything. Sent him a letter on sat, stating work that has been done,and is to be done, and that the carpet will not be changed. Just waiting now for the explosive phone call.

Hi Phil, one thing to keep in mind is that this job is not a good one for you (little or no profit) and that it is keeping you from focusing on your regular business. Anything that you can do to get away from this guy is a good thing to do or pay for because it will free you up to get back to the profitable work you are normally doing.

I say that not to state the obvious, but keep it in mind that if there is one minor thing that you can concede to this joker and use that to get him to agree that one concession will suffice, then I'd likely do the minor thing in order to get this behind me. It's easy to get so focused on the annoying problem at hand that you forget about the bigger picture, which is to get back to making money on the next job.

Good luck mate, and get the heck out of there.

Thanks mg, i will. But tbh i am just about at the fix my hands around his neck stage.

Phil, MG is right on this---keep your cool, be the pro that you are. Resist the urge to throttle this guy.

I understand---I've been there and it takes real willpower to not act out on your instincts. I promise you this whole thing will look better a year from now.

Thanks to all of you for the support, hopefully this will all be settled by the end of the week, and as rob say's i'll be able to get back to some proper work.

I'll let you know what the final outcome is.
