What would you guys do if you were in my shoes?

So, I thought I’d just share this photo to show you guys what "professional" workmanship actually looks like... I took a picture of one little hole they were supposed to fix, and instead, they just stuffed it with some spray foam... and while they were at it, because why stop at one? They went ahead and drilled *another* hole just for the internet cables...🤣

And the kicker? I just finished painting these walls myself last year... fresh as can be...

Good grief, no offense intended, but I honestly think I could’ve done a better job myself despite having zero experience in this line of work. If this is really how things turned out, then God help whoever has to deal with this mess.
Either the guy was stumbling drunk while he was at it, or there’s some much deeper issue going on here. That extra hole didn't exactly help matters, either. This is exactly why I opted for a wireless setup—so I wouldn't have to go drilling holes all over my house.
It honestly feels like his primary objective was to walk in and systematically dismantle your home... 🙂

Either he was drunk on the job or there's some other issue at play. Adding an extra hole just made everything worse. That's why I went with wireless—so I don't have to be drilling holes all over my house.
Honestly, it feels like he showed up with a mission to wreck your house... 🙂

Jebateled, I just realized 😲.
The guy found out his wife was flashing her chest to rapidrider3's husband over the fence 😲:

Since he's barely five feet tall and skinny, the guy decided to get revenge using his own specialty.
An impact drill. 😂.

Raymond Robinson37 said:What's even the point here:

1. You get paid once the job is done—that's how it works, the guy holding the cash calls the shots.
2. Don't ever hire some random stranger for a gig, because money issues will wreck your relationship almost every single time.
3. He was stuck in a tight spot and didn't have any other choice. Either take $1900 or end up losing way more than $1333 (since he actually had to cover the materials out of his own pocket while his buddy scrambled to find the cash).

this bolded part 👍

And the kicker is, I freshly painted these walls myself just last year...

The way he went at those holes with a drill... honestly, give me a break.👎

I honestly think this guy’s acting like such a total clown just because he got caught hooking up with his neighbor after a massive blowout, and now he's totally backed into a corner. nhf.

The hole looks like that because some power cable shorted out, so they had to tear into the wall to isolate the wiring... honestly, it’s a miracle he didn't get fried by the current or something worse...
He was using a Hilti... our walls are about 16 inches thick...
But the point is, he just left it like that and we were the ones stuck patching it up... the other holes weren't quite as bad...

🤮🤮Man, if you actually saw her... she's built like a tank... and those curves... god...

Can't say for sure though...😂😂 I'm easily a hundred times better than her... and frankly, there's no point in even bothering with people like that...🤣

Where have you been living?
It’s pretty clear you don't know the first thing about men.
Like they actually care about looks.
As long as they say yes, they're happy.
And even if they don't, just look at this.

🤮🤮🤮

Pathetic... just a total fake acting sick..

Seriously, I’m dying to know how this all wrapped up. rapidrider3, keep us posted. 🙂

How did it end? It hasn't ended yet....

I talk to these girls, and at first they were dodging me, but now they’re all over me talking, while I haven't said a word about this whole mess to them.

My neighbor—she hangs out with my uncle Peter's wife—they were chatting one day, and she turns to me and goes, "Well, you're the best judge of what she gave you..." I just stare at her and say... yeah, there's the problem... because she hasn't given me anything, but everyone else is gossiping like she did...
It's just all hearsay, really...

Now school has started back up and they need to buy books... and once again, the money just isn't there.... but apparently, Uncle Peter got absolutely wrecked at the company he works for. Basically, they called in some other handyman (you know, a side guy) to finish things up (nobody wants to finish a job someone else started, except him, obviously). Everything was set, we got a quote for materials from the local hardware store (we still need about 11 $0.00) and the guy said he'd have it all done for about $217. Peter was actually planning on charging us an extra 2 $0.00 for his part.

And get this—the kicker is, both of them work at the exact same company!!!!
And of course, the other guy called him out at work, asking how someone could be such a crook and charge that much?
At first, he tried to play dumb, acting like he didn't even know some Mr. XY, but then the guy reminded him that the house is right across the yard... so he just shut up and mumbled something under his breath...

What exactly he said, who knows... long story short, he got chewed out big time.🤣
So now I know the rest of the crew knows what a scumbag he is too...

So, yeah.....
We're struggling with cash right now. There's no way we can scrape that much together, and we don't even have central heating, just a single stove in one room. And it's a two-story house....
