[QUOTE="Jena, post: 422177, member: 4514"] haozi thats' why i got it. i saw a picture online lol. somewhere in my diluted mind i thought it woudl come in the box "big" :) it didnt' look 30 ft online they just show you a small snapshot. i love magnolia's and thought oh a tree............ shelly - i had a similar problem...... last summer i was at my friends, it was our first summer in the house and the yard was wreck. i met this landscaper there a nice guy who seemed desperate for business and well he said hey i'll help you for cheap etc. so i felt bad, knew we didnt' have alot of money but husband and i thougth aw help out a new business man kinda thing...... he must have kids he's feeding etc. WELL, long and behold he showed up to mow our lawn 6 hours later. yes 6 HOURS later, and 3 cig. breaks later, him breaking to kiss his girlfriend in his pick up truck, and his lawn mower broken two times the lawn was halfway done!!! LOL. i called husband and said well heres' the story. he said jen just get rid of him. dog was flipping out all day he's afraid of mower's yes my rescue pup. long story short it took me 3x more of this type of stuff neighbors' complaining due to noise the scary guy in the broken down pick up truck and his half dressed girlfriend till i finally said hey no more. :) if he can't do the work he can't do it. just be honest with him say i'm so sorry your having a rough time and we wanted to know if it woudl be easier for you if we just forgot about our agreement and we'll just handle the yard work ourselves. this way your being empathic and at the same time your releasing him or at least giving him the option of giving up. throw in somewhere how your having co. on such and such a date so you had to get it done by than and dont' want to add further stress to his life. just a thought! good luck!
