Is it the Shoes?

Here it is. My first blog. Apparently, you wont be a somebody until you blog. I don't really want to be a somebody. I just want people in the Athens area to not make mistakes when they have work done on their home. Boring blog. Interesting thought.

I've been doing this (roofing and remodeling) about 20 years now. I must have started at 19 because I will forever be 39. My hairline and belly say 39 was many years ago. So do my kids.

Ok, so I ask "why does having work done on your home need to be such a pain"? Is it because we, as consumers, choose the cheapest? The easiest? Prettiest? Is it the shoes? Do we secretly want the adventure? I know I don't. Life has enough adventure included without having to add some. I once read where a homeowner gave a guy a $50,000 deposit. $50,000 real dollars. As a deposit! Guess who never showed back up?

There are roofers flocking into town because a little hail fell. Whoa! Hail, for real? Guess I need a new "free" roof, right? That's what the guy with the out-of-town tags says; "you can get a free roof, just sign here". Will he do it right? Will he ever service it? Will he warrant it? Who cares, right? It's a free roof. Yea, that's right.

I want my adventure at the theme park, not on my roof.
