How do you
fire someone? Do you say “gee I’m sorry but you just don’t do it for me?” Or
“go away you bother me?” I have never had to do this before. Or should I say I
have never had this opportunity before? Now I am face with doing that. When we
whittled it down to 2 I just told him that I would call him. I mean the guy was
calling me all the time.
I don’t want
to cross the line. I want to sound strong and intelligent. But inside I am
still that little girl. I am afraid that he won’t take no for an answer. I also
worry about that fine line between lady/woman and bitch. In most things I am
not worried about coming across as bitchy but you know this is business. I am
woman hear me roar!! But, is there that line that you cross or am I caught in
the past? Am I silly because I considered sending a thank you card and writing
in their thanks but no thanks?
No, I will
pull up my big girl panties and call him while I am out. Why am I calling while
I am out you ask? Because this house is the black hole of Calcutta. There are
only a few places that I get a signal to call out. I can text because of the
Wi-Fi but no talking on the phone. Wish me luck! I will add that part when I
get back!
Oh friends
you would be proud. I called him and told him. He asked me why, I was nice. I
didn’t tell him that I didn’t like him. I didn’t tell him it was because I didn’t
like the fact that he played grabby on my leg. I am not a fan of that. No, I
took the high road. I told him that we appreciated his bid but we decided to go
another way. That it was a group decision. It was.
Our
contractor we chose is a very nice family man. He owns the company and it is a
big enough company that his company has been featured on HGTV’s show Curb
Appeal more than once. The ideas for the house are great. We are going to make
the master bedroom and the master bath accessible for a wheel chair. This is
because my mom is not getting any younger and I want to make sure that she can
have that.
Next time I
think I may bore you with some plans. J
Glad you found a good contractor and one you are comfortable with. You are better person than me letting him go nicely. Good for you :)
