    You have control issues. We don't do control, we get the job done. If the jobs not being done you can complain. otherwise keep your trap shut.

    started a topic Lazy Contractors

    Lazy Contractors

    Had to give a couple of contractors a telling off today for a long lunch and poor work ethics.

    Makes me sick how you 'contractors' think you can swan about like you own the place.

Working...
