Poo for brains

I'm having to replace a wall and redo the floor on a rental house. I put together a tight schedule because the tenant has to live with a plywood door until the job is finished. Got the old wall down yesterday and the concrete contractor came today. He saw the old wall, he knew what I wanted, there was no ambiguity. So here is what he did.



The wall encloses this area that once was a porch. You can see the caulking on the wall where the enclosing wall was attached. It was directly under the brown header.





So this is how he poured the new floor. The greenish brick are where the old wall met the house, and where the one is going to met it. The anchor bolts are about where the siding will fall. WTF was he thinking??
Some days I think I'm going to get out of building ownership.
