My yard guys are supposed to come over 2x month during spring/summer and 1x during fall/winter.
I think they came over for a third time in August the other day and I can’t tell what, if anything, they did and now I’m gonna have to question the invoice when it arrives.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Goddammit, they knocked one of the third floor sliding screens off its track and I can’t open it to fix it. Might need these guys to come back out with their ladder to fix.

Luckily, my neighbor has one of those folded ladders that extends, so I was able to borrow that and re-track my sliding screen. Quite the innovation!
