The continuing saga of the lift cart.  So, I come home from the doctor's today to see the panels back on the lift cart frame.  This surprised me, as they needed to repaint the front panel and cover the wrong letters and add lettering to the side panel.  So, I go out to look (everyone has left for the day).  The side panel has no letters and it looks like someone took a paint brush and just painted over the wrong letters on the front. So, instead of being a nice, even, smooth paint job -- it has 7 blobs of thick, brush-marked, gooey, steaky paint.  Do these people really think we are going to accept something that looks that &%~!*# ?  Geeze, I'm ready to kill!!!!!!!!!  I mean, I am not being picky -- this looks like total &%~* ! 

NO!  The guys I have been baking cookies for are Randy's railroad employees and they would NEVER do such shoddy work.  They are the best, hardest working men I've ever seen!  These are from a company we contracted with to build the cart.  The railroad guys could have done a much better job!  Well, the company hasn't been paid and won't be paid until they fix this ugly thing!

Wow - that stinks that they're doing such a crappy job.  Good thing you haven't paid them in full yet or they would probably leave it that way.  Hold out until it's just the way you want it!

Oh, don't worry, they aren't getting a penny until they get this thing right.  You can't believe how awful the paint job is.  I could have done a better job.  This was not a cheap cart - we are (or maybe we won't be) paying a lot for this thing and for them to do such a shoddy job is unbelievable!
