Or I should say - check it every morning - not in the afternoon. Even check the end of day if you can. This is even with good workers on your site! I have pretty damn good contractors and things still can go down the toilet fast if you don't pay attention! I walked on my site this afternoon ( yes... I was there yesterday as well and every day) and I noticed the weirdest thing:
WHY oh WHY would we tear up the walk way in order to lay pour new concrete only to STOP short of tearing out the entire walkway up to the front door?
Do you see this weird carpet thing here? Do you see the tile in front of it going in the front door? Why would you not hammer jack all of this out and poor new concrete up to the door???
We are carpeting inside up until the door opening (Duh)... so what the hell am I supposed to do with this weird entry before you walk in? Really - this is the most asinine thing I have seen done on this job so far. So now tomorrow - after the new concrete has already been poured and dried over night - we have to jack hammer the rest of this entry and pour additional concrete. Is this a big deal? In the whole scheme of things - no.... but this is mistake/misunderstanding/assumption #78 so far on this 30 day job. They all add up and when we are trying to be completely done in 3 days from now - this is a really pain in the ass....
The moral of the story... the last week of your rehab - be at your job all the time. Check on everyone, go over everything, watch it all... that means go in the morning, afternoon and try to get there before the end of day... (obviously if you have a mack daddy contractor who you have worked with for years and you trust more than life itself... you only need check on your job at least once a day :)
No biggy... things could be a lot worse and again this is not a a dire emergency... I should consider myself very fortunate for this being one of the stupidest things that I am dealing with...
