I started to post a new topic and then resisted the thought. But, tabby is right.
A colleague of mine is building a custom home in Newport Beach for an obviously rich enough client ( or a complete fool). Every day as many as 10 trucks roll up and someone is looking for work. This includes laborers, subs and even generals who have nothing. But wait, it gets better.
The colleague tells all that he has all of his crew and subs in order from previous jobs. The people in the trucks won't go away. They beg and argue; let me bid this, I'll beat anyone's price and so on.
All my guy sees in their eyes is fear. It's not far from getting nasty.
