fourth time is a charm.. or is it?
so this is what happened. i got a call from a guy named dave this afternoon. he told me he was a vice president of this wholesale supplier of building materials that supplied our local building supplier. we had ordered (about three weeks ago) a sheet of 3/8" bendable plywood to put up on the curved corners of our project. now.. consider this.. it can bend in either the long or short axis. three times they sent the short (4') axis bendable ply.. even tho the long axis (8') had clearly been ordered. at last the wholesaler called me ant apologized saying they would comp me the correct sheet which would be sent today. i got a call about three o'clock today from the wholesaler dave who told me "one of our customers had off-loaded his order from our truck with a fork-lift and hit your plywood and split it. your supplier refused delivery because the shipment was damaged. we will rent a pick-up and deliver to your job-site the sheet of ply for no charge to your jobsite tomorrow." i can hardly wait to see what happens tomorrow... it has been three weeks! murphy's law rules!
