Construction Daily: Owners wife

Owners wife

AETNA insurance just called me
~ Ring ~ Ring ~
Their first question...
Hello are you the owner or the owners wife?

I bet when a guy answers the phone when they call a construction company they never say "Hello are you the owner or the owner's husband?"

Note to self -- don't buy Aetna insurance

How it started

I hereby solemnly swear to change the names to protect the innocent, to display the names of the guilty, and to never let the whole-truth-and-nothing-but-the-truth get in the way of a good story. Every time my friend Rick asks me how's business going, I tell a funny, scary, horrible, humorous, incredible or interesting story. When I'm finished he always says the same thing, "You should write a book". I'm never going to take the time and effort to write a book, so this Blog seems like an easy Cheater Method for writing down my stories. Hopefully you will find them entertaining too. Some background... I am a licensed general contractor (residential builder) and strangely enough - I am a woman. The construction business looks a little different viewed through my eyes as you will see. I will tell you stories of clients, competition, employees, building officials, and construction sites, the good, the bad, and the funny.Enjoy!
