Never had a problem with this until just yesterday! I had an electrician out here to potentially get a job installing a generator transfer switch. When scheduling with the company, I was informed there is a $50 service fee. OK. The guy gets here, reviews the policies, his qualifications, then says that he never charges the fee. I say thanks, but appreciated his time and he did go the extra step and educate me on basic electricity.

As he started to take apart the panel in the garage, I ran inside to get him some cash. I was gonna tip him in place of his service fee. I run back out to the garage, and he's up by his truck in the driveway, pissing right out in the open!!!

He spoke a little funny this whole time. I thought he had a minor stroke in the past, as I know someone who did and talked the same way. But now, I think he was simply 3 sheets to the wind! Nice enough guy, but no way he's getting this job, nor my tip. I had to hose down the driveway right after he left.
