>It all sounds great, but what are you going to do. Go to a lawyer and he tells you that it has to be filled in the town that the contract was signed in, and you get there and the judge tells you that he does not believe that it is in his jurisdiction. You end up with more money wasted on lawyers and court fees, and still get nothing done.
Has anyone ever took down what they put up? Left it on the ground or take it to the yard? I have so upset that I have almost done that.
By the way Fiber Fly, I don't think the two or three hundred that you owe is worth the pissing match. So forget it. It would have been nice to have had the sat down meeting in Austin to have had a better working idea on what you wanted in Houston. Back to the lawsuit idea, I wished it would work, but don't believe you can get anywhere with it.
>EVERYONE HEARD THE OLD SAYING UNITED TOGETHER WE STAND DIVIDED WE FALL WILL IT'S TIME THE CORPORATIONS FALL, THEY GO INTO A PROJECT TAKE THE GRAVY OUT OF IT AND LEAVE THE S_____ WORK FOR EVERYONE ELSE WHILE THE ONLY OFFER TO PAY US PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR WHILE THEY HAVE ALREADY GOTTEN THE BIG SLICE OF THE PIE. WE DO THE WORK AND THEN STRAVE TO DEATH BECAUSE THEY DON'T PAY INVOICES OR KEEP RETAINAGE.
