WOW!!!!

Today has been my favorite contractor story thus far, and it's almost the end so I guess it's about time. Merry Christmas Eve!! The guy came today to put in the railing. No one was here Monday or Tuesday and they pick Christmas Eve to come - and apparently they think people won't be home - who knows. But the guy wouldn't come in because he's afraid of the dog. Yes, lovable and cuddly Nittany.

So I took Nittany for a walk on the ice skating rink of Scotch Plains for almost 40 minutes. Now, I thought he would see me leave and take his chance to get all of his things inside and not worry about the dog. Apparently he's not the smartest because when I came home he was still sitting outside in his van. Then, he decides to come to the door - when I have the dog right there in my hand. So I of course call Jon to complain about the moron at our house and I see that he is STILL standing outside my front door. WTF???!!! So with Jon on the phone I had to go out and talk to this guy because I have NO CLUE what is going on.

Bottom line, the guy told me he will not come into the house unless the dog is locked up - (hhhmmm I am home all day - let's lock up my dog so he freaks out all day?? or let me spend $25 to bring him to camp so you can do your work??) - I think that's a big fat NO! Who in the world gives someone a job inside someones home that is afraid of animals?? Really?? And to tell someone they need to lock up their dog. Apparently he was worried about how Nittany would react to his tools - hmm he's had people in the house building a frame, putting on siding, tiling, putting in windows - but I don't know I think he might have attacked his first person ever because of his tools.

What a morning!!! Amazing!
