I don't think he realizes just how close I came to throwing his whole company right off site then and there.

I'm rather merciless with contractors. Since they're a reflection on me I don't tolerate idiots.

The annoying fact that it would take maybe two days to get another contractor on site and that could cost as much or more time that just letting them get their shit together.

I guess that explains why it takes Centerpoint 3 hours to replace a line fuse.

Which promptly failed again two hours later. Then it took another three hours to replace it again.

Then the next day, it failed again...

The weather: that day, no wind, no rain, low humidity, temp in the low 90's.

Yeah...

I wasn't sure where I should put this, but I figured this was the best place... This guy is a friend of mine and I didn't realize how great of a guy he was. This is something I thought only I would say... Haha, I didn't know there were so many guys like this... I'm glad there are though

If he wrote that on a Iphone I can understand, those things can be hard to write on.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.
