Re: - The lads and me have revolted!
Im back, bit of an epic meeting.
Seconds out Round One.
As predicted by Mike the past and the dirty deeds were dragged out by them in the opening moments. What you thought had been put to bed and been forgotten was brushed up and thrown in my face. I think they won on that score, and they floored me.
Round Two
A round of he said, she said, they said, but actually no one said! a contra charge was thrown in they bunged on me because apparently I said I was to busy to do some making good.......I cant remember saying I was to busy..I love the smell of akimi! split the charge down the centre and call it quits.
Round Three
Day Work Sheets signed but they dont want to pay them.....There was no arguement there, I stood my ground I did have a wobble at one point but found my feet again. This was the biggest bone of contention, at one point someone said how much do you pay your men Lynn? to which I replied more than your offering to pay me to pay them. He was beaten into submission, a decent wage for a decent days work.
Round Four
The holding of monies owed due to snagging...umm I thought that what we had retentions for? time to drag out the contracts......durr how stupid of them...red faces on their part.
Round Five
Works that have had to be done again due to the client changing the material.....its simple you put the marble down the client decides they dont like it, you rip it up put down a diff marble, so the client has to pay again. Only they didnt want to, but they have to, because I whipped out the confirmation for the extra works.
Round Six
Refusing to pay for core drilling, again whipped out the confirmation and let them knock a few quid of each segment...give and take.
Its over, finally at long last its being put to bed, and we can move on. The last 12 months have had their highs and their lows. A contract which saw punch-ups, tears, a crate of blue marble crashing and smashing due to an idiot, red cards, yellow cards, Big Daves, temper tantrums, and the banning of shorts on site. Upwards and onwards!
