Kitchen Kapers part 2

Mr. T from the contractors I called about my kitchen came to do a visual today. This is the $25K guy. He is the sales person.

T looks around...does some measurements and then scratches his head. He tells me he isn't as good with kitchens as he is with windows and doors, but he doesn't understand how this would cost $25k.

I don't understand how it would cost that much either.

So...Mr. T blue tooths his boss about the kitchen and describes it a bit more. Mr. Boss...has never seen my kitchen...does not know the dimensions of my kitchen and has never seen the floor plans of my kitchen says...maybe it will come down to about $22K.

I ask for an itemized breakdown of how he comes up with this figure and he won't give it to me. Mr. Boss just makes this number up based on the info Mr. T gives him. He's also basing this on 5 men for 5 days to do this job. 2 people in my kitchen will bump into each other...5 people in my kitchen is the equivalent to a phone booth stuffing contest...it ain't gonna happen!!!

I like Mr. T. Nice guy...typical sales guy...but he's nice. (He's also Irish...this always helps!) Mr. Boss - I'm not liking him too much so far.

Stay tuned - this is bound to get really interesting as the other estimates come in!!!
