Day 15--Frustration

So we've been getting new laminate flooring installed here at home and so far, in one day, I've managed to run back and forth to Home Depot 3 separate times to run errands and get stuff for my parents and the installer. Mostly because they guy who came out to measure and put the order in managed to get things wrong and leave some stuff out completely. A stair nose here, removal/replacement of the toilet, T pieces there.....ugh!

Note: No frustration is towards Flickr or any people/groups associated with it--you guys are my new addiction and my sanity saver!

You know, it's expected that a homeowner trying to do upgrades and handywork might need to make a few trips to the store during the process. But for a paid professional to show up without everything and then hose up the job, yeah that'd frustrate the hell out of me too. Maybe to the point of arguing paying the total bill.

You definately captured the emotion!

Well, the installer isn't the one flubbing it up. It was the guy who came out to measure--he's the one wh oordered everything. The installer was just going on what was here and then realized that something wasn't quite right with the order.

The installation is in my parents' house (where I am currently residing). Thankfully it's not my own house. I'd probably be even more frustrated!

@Aaron ~ I thought "man laws" only applied to men! Grr.
