Final Approach
So, I had a guy do the yard trimming. I mowed but he did the rest up until a month ago or so. He up and left town without a word and gave the account to a friend. We only knew the old guy left because the new guy showed up. All without a word to us.
Okay, I'll play ball. I had asked the old guy for a quote to remove two planters and sod over the area. One of the planters had a stump in it that needed to be ground out. We never got the quote from the last guy so I asked the new guy for the quote.
So my wife drives home today and sees the new guy grinding away on the stump. We never got a quote. She asks him what he's doing and he says I told him to do it and it's only $50.
So what would you do? I never asked for anything but a quote and now he's going to want to be paid for his work. As a labourer he should be paid, but as a customer I should get a choice.
