Sick of Used Car Salesmen Posing as Contractors

Just sick of the Durango Cowboy contractors. If you live in Durango then you know who I''m talking about: the guy with the dog and the truck who say's "I'm a Contractor." Most of these clowns are guys with trucks and dogs, that is all.
I'm not afraid to lose work, honestly I have much more valuable ways of spending my time than to scrap over a remodel. You can have it you bottom feeder.

Dealing with these greedy pigs is below me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bigtime by any means; I'm surprised if I make my mortgage payment. But still, these are games reserved for a special breed of idiot. An architect licensed in two states has no business here.

I Wanna Chase Bright Shinys

I just want to do the fun stuff. And I see a lot of fun stuff in what I do. That's a challenge of owning a business, you have to do everything; being selective isn't much of an option.
When I set out it was with daydreams of building models and carefully designing my work. Didn't take much time to think about juggling bank accounts and researching insurance policies. Yuck!
I'm learning. Can't complain but I do anyway. I could say I'm getting used to it but I'm really holding out for the day that I can hire someone for my Department of Lame Activities.
