    The build next door has been starting earlier than they should, but I’m already up and I’d prefer they just finished. I feel like they’re pressing to get it done for xmas.

      We have an odd situation next door where our complex and another party co-own a space. I don’t know exactly why, but the concrete sits on top of a parking entrance that runs underground and it needed repairs or whatever…

      There was a disagreement over how much each party would pay and I think it dragged so much that our complex gave in and well, had to pay more than they wanted.

      This should have been a three month job—that was what we were told.

      I don’t know who on earth hired this company, but there have been minimal workers onsite. Machinery starts first thing the morning, but by early afternoon it sounds like no-one is working. Conversations have been heard and apparently there was quite a cock-up yesterday because the workers didn’t listen to instruction.

      The whole thing is a joke. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were on-going issues and they’ll have to come back to fix it more than once. The hiring for a mil+ job is confusing to me.

      How on earth a bunch of muppets got the contract is beyond me.
