Thread: Do the job or not

Half upfront. If it looks likes it's caving in, you can cut and run. Also difficult to do biz with friends; you rarely stay friends afterwards.

You already know that you don't want to touch this.
When you see the train wreck up ahead, always take the
first left. Sometimes when you get too far down the road
you can't back up.
Makes it easier to live with yourself.
Just a thought.

Come on now DD, You're in the building game, remember what we used to say back in the UK.
Never do business with friends or relatives.

Huh? Why the first left? What if there is no left turn? Are you allowed to go right, instead? What about if you take the second left? Or just do a U-turn?

First opportunity always turn left, never right in face of oncoming traffic, just don't always know what is coming in the opposite direction at speed. How many times in ones life can you remember saying to yourself, ' I just knew it.....'

Never second left turn, your life experience tells you that you can already smell that it is off, too much time to think about it and you are in the spiders web.

Never a u-turn you already know what's behind you. Had the experience and always moving forward.

The wiser we get the quicker me make the first left turn. Times too short.

Just a second thought.

do what your bladder tells you

Yes, there are a lot of dumb Farangs in LOS.

And not only are the two above dumb, but they are likely fraudsters.

I reckon having seen you complain in the past over builders low profit..
Offer them the fekking tables for 24K Baht, will make them happy.

Make them an offer that you can cut their budget prices if you get a percentage of the savings. Make the offer to both of them at the same time.

Money talks loud and clear.

So you have to turn right after the first turn left. Remind me never to let you navigate..
