PITA days

Question

Monday we went to start a big job at a Golf course, about a 4 day job, They wanted me to do the clubhouse & surrounding areas on Monday because it was closed. I got to the guard gate and told him we are going to clean clubhouse. He said are you sure, theres a big tourament. Well i got there and there were people everywhere and the head of maint. came over saying I'm sorry. He said he screwed up. YAAAA,. I said lets do the pool area or restaurant, cant do it they have things going on. What a PITA, then he said how about the equestrian area, I said lets go!. halfway there he pulled over and said SORRY, I almost felt bad for the guy, He said they have 8 horses to shoe and the PW will spook the horse. what a PITA.

We gave up, so I called some residential customers and asked if I could do thier houses a week early , Sure so I got 3 houses to do and I got 1 call to do a small drive way. and we did another driveway Ive been waitng to clean and seal,That all went OK until my 4 gpm machine died for a while. Got that all done, MONDAY was over what a PITA day it was.

Tuesday we had a job to clean out and do iron stain removal on a good sized Lazy river at a large hotel, for a guy that gets me a ton of work. Got there at 8, the lazy river was half full still. what a PITA, so we went to seal a large driveway we, sealed the driveway and headed back to lazy river . Pump lost prime and he couldnt get it going. What a PITA, He rented a couple of sump pumps. I had several estimates to do so I went and started those. Then I got a call from a lady who we did her house Monday. When we did her house she said the last time the windows were cloudy, I never have problems with windows. Well she said her front windows were cloudy again. What a PITA, I told her we'd get over today. Lazy river still not empty a 3:00 pm went and scrubbed windows, they were cloudy, just the front main window, What a PITA, she was saying we must of forgot to rinse them., Well as I rinsed them I noticed white paint running off vinyl trim. They had put cheap paint on the trim and ran right off. I told her husband and , he was OK with it.

5:30PM finally Lazy river empty except for about 8 inches at one end , we started rust removal and was going good, until we got to the end with water, What a PITA. Well we used a roto nozzle and water was everywhere. We got it done at 8:15, Went home and helped my wife clean house because we are having Birthday party for her dad, Tonight/Wednesday, What a PITA. Then I had to pick up my son at my moms house at 10:30pm, had a shower & dinner and in bed by Midnight.

Well I woke up at 3AM with a nasty cold, coughing, stuffed up and feeling like ----, What a PITA!!!. Its now 7AM and Im going to start the big Golf course job. I hope today gets better than the last couple day

I just wanted to complain to someone, What a PITA I am

What you get for living in FLORIDA with all those rich old folks.

Take two asprins and call Dr. Jon in the morning, then call your bank when I send you the bill.

I am sure that will cure you of your ills.

Hey Jon - he's just in S.Carolina, but still with rich folk :)

Jeff, hope you feel better soon - you're going to be busy if ole Wilma heads up the coast! (If you guys need to come visit us to get out of harm's way, we'll make room!)
