Re: Do pool companies and other service workers think we are stupid?
When I moved in here into a new house, I had tons of appointments with seemingly everybody within a 100 mile radius. My calendar was filled with visits from the builder, the cable guy, the phone company, the irrigation system folks, the furnace guy, the blinds lady and later her installer, the washer/dryer installers, the ceiling fan installer, the garage door installer, the indoor bug people, the outdoor bug guy, the grass cutter, some furniture delivery people, and god only knows who else. Thank goodness for the great calender my old realtor had been providing for years. Finally put it to good use.
In all these appointments laid out over a two week period (except for some furniture and window treatment installation which took 5-8 weeks as expected), EVERY appointment was made. My only complaint was that they were disgustingly prompt, even early. I'd just moved from the DC area. I wasn't used to that.
Since then I've had a few issues, like with a landscaper who never returned calls and the aforementioned COMCAST "customer service", but most have been prompt, friendly, reasonably priced, and at least moderately competent.
