For some reason the kid that mowed your lawn gives me this mental picture of a half retarded tall guy that looks like sloth off of the goonies.

Actually he was an older black dude, I would say in his late 50's or so. the guy seemed like a nice guy and had he just said, "hey sorry i'll keep an eye out for that from now on" i would have been fine with it, although the charging for a full month thing would have been an issue. but you sit there and call me a liar, give the customer no way out ya kinda screw yourself.

I show him the hose and tells me it's impossible that he did that. I tell him that I watched him do it and that the faucet was not bent like that as we just replaced all of them, he then tries to tell me that someone sabotaged him LOL


I know it's possible to snag a hose and tear out a faucet, I did that. Well I didn't break it, I just bent a whole lot. (faucet sticking out of the ground)
