Amen Vaa!

Totally agree with you. I wear my Roofing Boots with my Khakis so that the guys know "where" I came from.

I love it when they tell me something that I suggest "can't" be done. I tell them to get out of the way and I grab their tools and do it right in front of them as they stand there and watch me with their jaws open. Then I give them their tools back and tell them: "Don't ever tell me that something I tell you to do 'can't' be done!"

That's how you earn a crews' respect...by "showing" them that you know your stuff. [Now, before they say that they "can't" do something, they come and ask me first.]

(Do you guys have "Gojo" over there? Best stuff available. Hand cleaner that removes just about anything.)

BTW...I have a about 100 squares waiting for me for the winter at my place in West Virginia. Previous customer that has become an "evangelical customer" for me! Can't wait to get laid off so I can run out there and do some "real" work!

;)
