If @op was professional he would’ve gotten that p**** and moved that dresser. EOS

No,

• company f***ed up sending him alone

• the work is way too much for 14/hr or whatever

• it's a Saturday and he's alone

• company should have had scouts deciding the manpower required

That's bullshit. Never once (across 3 companies) did I have to do this alone let alone on Saturday. He should be putting the company on blast instead

You know bro is making s*** pay for this s***

The COMPANY is unprofessional and deserves some of this

Posting pics is wild tho

I'll keep repeating that cause that's nuts lmao

Their lack of prudence to send a scout or do a full assessment of work is still in part to OP’s unprofessionalism

Ask yourself, as a man in the same trade, would you have acted in the same way? No customer service? No communication?

Do you know what it means to be professional is in this specific setting?

Fr lol like this is nothing more than just a goofy thread. It’s not even entertaining or funny, just stupid.

I lied to my boss so I wouldn't have to give the money back. It's self preservation

When I was in trades, I did do this lmao

Thing about low entry trades is the level of "professionalism" you're expecting doesn't exist

Cause it pays like s*** and more than half the ppl are meth heads

Well I agree they deserve some of this but please note you say some. Who deserves the rest?

W

Then you’re unprofessional
As a lawyer reading this thread it’s simply crazy, sorry

Haha agreed that's why the threads so damn funny

But I think it's wild I'm the only dude here like "op has some points tho"

Then again I'm drunk and left trades 4 years ago maybe more

Morals aside you gotta see how this is unprofessional

Hahahaha what's hilarious is all the companies I left were pissed cause I was somehow the best

These type of companies don't give a f***, you can get caught smoking meth in the bathrooms of the customers and not get fired. It's just the types they hire, I'm not lying, I've seen it with 2 dudes even

They just send others to do the job lmfao

I agree with your general comments, but I disagree on the professionalism piece

I think you’re fair for defending him because I rly don’t understand your world, so I won’t judge

refusing to take accountability for your actions and labeling it as 'self respect' is a level of delusion I strive to be able to achieve

You not leaving that property pulling that in Texas

It's a different world with low level trades

That's why I find this so funny, dudes expecting professionalism on the level of a call center worker is not even getting what it's like with these jobs

"Professionalism" as layman's terms? 100% with you it's unprofessional as F***

But talm bout craiglist enlisted bros making 14/hr or less to literally pick up a desk and put it in a truck?

Different world. Hell, I worked in restoration, even that's above that cause I knew how to press some buttons on a truck to suck up literal s***? Nah bro dudes I worked with would do hot rails on bathroom sinks just to say they did it lmfao

Op wild as hell for all this, especially expecting ppl here to even know what any trade s*** is like, but I'm like the singular dude here at least saying "I get it" hahaha

Thing with me is the PR/reputation I guess

Nothing stopping this couple from leaving a scathing review—who knows how well connected or clouted they are on review boards or neighbourhood groups or whatever

Would be be a wise business move to refund them, apologise and then send someone over to continue the work

Op needs to realize it is the company f***ing up more than anything tho

I Dont feel bad one bit. Self entitle and self loathing customers Dont deserve respect

Again I agree fully

But what if it's a company like 2 men 1 truck with 5000 reviews lmao

Cheaper to hire garbage people and deal with the few reviews, refunding as needed

F***in capitalism mane lmao

I'm not seeing any bit of the $425 back. I came to do the job but they didn't act right so I left.

Yeah you’re so right

Funny the digitalisation of trade (TaskRabbit, Craigslist) hasn’t even solved this

except you do. you feel incredibly insecure about your general inadequacy and actions in the situation. if you didn't you wouldn't run to the internet seeking validation / absolution for the way you acted.

We’ll see
