    There should be some sort of double or treble damages for bad faith in instances like this.

    Yes Ridge, let's call Uncle Vido! His methods are proven.
    I thought Jim was our hired muscle for things like this?

    In todays litigious society plus cell phones, it's hard to make an honest living.
    People think screwing someone out of money is fun & games till the door bell rings. Then it's tears and urinating in their pants. Hypothetically, that is.

    Better yet, just leave this on their doorstep:

    PM me a price.

    Also I try like hell to get 50% down on jobs. Doesn't always happen that way. Tom Marino says that anyone wanting 50% down must be fly by night. I say I don't want to finance your fucking project, and 50% usually covers all materials if someone does try to screw you. I had to file a lien once and got paid right away. What a pain in the ass that was. Let me correct myself....my wife filed the papers. I'd have probably let it go...or broke some legs.

    Also I know a GC that was once chased around a jobsite by Tom with cameras asking why he's shady bla bla. This ex felon contractor gave Tom small pile of cash and Tom now recommends this same GC

    He leaves YOUR finger and palm print.
    Whenever my wife asks me why I never wear pants around the house I simply remind her:

    "A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” - Winston Churchill

    The truth wears NO pants!

    No one gets that close. I'd be more than happy to give him a DNA sample
