It always amazes me to find that a person can be a highly skilled expert in his field, able to do a job as well as it can be done, but is entirely lacking in customer relations and people skills. This person would make a LOT more money if he would just work a little harder at those things.

I have contracted out a couple of concrete jobs in the last year or two. After we agreed on a price, etc, I told these guys I charge $40.00 an hour to sit and wait for someone to show up for work, 0800 MEANS 0800. Both contractors always showed up a few minutes early. grin
